Biography:
Keten was born on the road somewhere in Ferelden. His parents were Tal-Vashoth who managed to escape the Ben-Hassrath and fled as far south as possible. Eventually settling in the capital city of Ferelden, Denerim, after six years of traveling. Growing up for Keten was different, to say the least. His father worked as a mercenary while his mother stayed home to take care of Keten. His only friends growing up were two city elves, Carcen and Firana, who with three would often spent time together. He was more open about learning and adapting to human culture than his parents and was curious to learn about humans and elves. Then, when he was eight, the Fifth Blight started and when it came to Denerim a year later. They tried to flee that city during the battle, and in the end, they did but, only when Keten mother sacrificed herself to give them time to escape. They would return after the dust settled and everything they had was gone, including Keten's only friends.
After the fifth Blight, Keten traveled with his father with his mercenary company and showed that he could use magic. His father had his friend and one of the company's mages to teach him on how to use magic. His teacher, a middle-aged Antivan human mage named Sofia Avonal. She taught him how to protect himself from being possessed by demons and everything else she knew about magic. Becoming a proper mage and loved to get in the thick of battle. Later in life, Keten from what he was told about the Qun and the Qunari from his parents. He would come to hate the Qun, and in order to establish an identity for himself, far from the Qun. Keten got himself several tattoos on his body and would use a surname. Rather than take a random human surname, Keten created one by combining the names of his parents, Jarok and Ozul into Jarul. When he became an adult, Keten would officially join his father's mercenary company and went along on many jobs for them.
Keten, during his time as a mercenary, he became rather tired of fighting for gold. He would rather he would fight for a cause that he believed in. When he heard of the Inquisition and their goals, he thought that was a cause worth fighting for. Keten as soon as he was ready, he ventured out to find them and later joined the Inquisition.
After the crisis was settled, Keten would later leave the Inquisition and spend time travelling around Thedas. While content with himself at first. He started to feel like he was missing something in his life, but did not know what. He would ponder this, and despite fighting for a right cause with the Inquisition, he still did not feel complete.
But, as he thought about this, did the signs of another Blight appear around the continent. Keten expected the Grey Wardens to appear and combat the threat, but when he noticed that the Grey Wardens were seemingly missing. This made him very worried and concerned for the future of Thedas when he heard of a mercenary group that was fighting the Blight. Keten knew what had to do and joined up with the band. To both fight the Blight and maybe figure out what happened to the Grey Wardens in the process.
