Personality

Yukai has a rather quiet, even to those he is on good terms with. He lives inside his own head half of the time, but when he does speak he has something decent and well thought out to say, albeit with a small stutter. He see's the world in a detatched perspective, as if he wasn't exactly part of it and only there to watch.

His quiet nature doesn't mean he is anti-social, he enjoys company when he finds it and listening about whatever from various view points. This has always been a fascination, second only to studying unfamilar cultures, although not directly, but by basic observation. When he isn't indulging in the afore mentioned interests, Yukai is either sleeping or smoking.

When it comes to friends, Yukai is rather hesitant to make them, although he does have people he prefers to talk to (should he feel the need to) others such as past teachers and other darkspear trolls.

History

Yukai was born to an alchemist and a axe thrower, because of his parent's occupations, they hardly had time to spend raising him. His uncle was the one who raised him for his younger years, and directed him to a suitable teacher to learn the young troll the ways of the voodoo as he got older.

His lessons about the voodoo path was disrupted when humans began assulting the tribe, and Yukai's progression was halted so his teacher, along with the experienced trolls did battle. The young student merely stood aside and watched as fate took a reversal and the Orcish Horde helped his people against not only the humans, but the Sea Witch and the Murlocs also. He journeyed with the rest of the tribe and looked up to his tribe's saviours and still does to this day.

When the ideal to give up voodoo, along with cannibalism and the other traditions frowned apon was suggested, Yukai happily pledged to do his best to make a turn for the better, despite the many others that did so and lied, Yukai's pledge was firm. He had only learnt the basics of voodoo magic, and quickly began seeking a teacher to teach him the path of the shaman. It wasn't until the trolls were driven from the Echo Isle and the demonstrations of voodoo's corruption proven that he finally found an orc to help him learn and begin his training.

Social pressures to take up voodoo once more from his peers, ontop of social pressures such as friendships (which he eventually had to break, to focus on his calling) amongst other hardships through his puberty caused much stress for Yukai, eventually causing his red hair to slowly turn white. To combat this, he carries multiple herbs with him, which he smokes when he feels he needs to relax.

With the help of the herbs, along with the travelling given to him by being a shaman of the Horde, his training went smoothly, and still is. Considering himself an instrument for the spirits, Yukai now serves the horde in anyway he can...unless the spirits tell him otherwise.
