A Varisian wander and young man of powerful and charismatic faith. Itinerant priest and journeyman healer, newly fledged in the power of his faith in Desna, the star-eyed supreme lady of dreams and the road and all travelers who trust in her to protect them on it.
Like all of his proud people, Starling is a dusky skinned handsome stranger, lithe and long-limbed, whose expressive eyes glint with strange colors of violet and gold.
Father Kotsni was raised as a true son of Vyush’baro, the Cunning Wolf. Some say Vyush’baro was an angel, a servant of Desna, and that one day he will return in the darkest hour of his peole.
His people have walked for centuries, both over the land and beneath it, always searching for something. As a novice and he has tended to the bodies and spirits of his people as they lost brothers and sisters to wild animals, fierce creatures of the night with red eyes, starvation, disease, and broken hearts.
Now, fully ordained and charged with the holy directive of his faith, he will pit his courage, his faith and his life and limb against the darkness.
