I've some research to do in Endraal, little one. Feeling especially courageous today?

Personality
Knowledge seeker: Throughout Cahfei's extended lifetime, one thing has always been his main priority: The never ending quest to make himself more known in the ways of the universe. Collecting books, making trips to unexplored lands, and experimenting with the arcane were but a small shred of the many paths Cahfei took to expand his collection of information.
Background
Childhood and Youth
Cahfei Silkstring grew up with his younger sister, Ilsis Silkstring, and his father, Archos Silkstring, within the vast open plains of the 'Flatlands of Inspiration' in western Meridiem. Here he developed the same love for knowledge and the gifts that came with it that his father had become famous for, and, coming of age, decided to follow his path and sail north in search of other lands. Finding Kharlia, he moved to the main capital of the Valikorlian nation, where he lived for several years.
Adulthood
With the many strange happenings that occurred upon the Kharlian continent, Cahfei was never without a direction to go or a new adventure to embark upon. He met with many famous warriors and distinct races during his explorations, and documented his every waking moment in several pocketbooks thought now to be lost in time. It was during this time, as well, that Cahfei made friends out of the infamous kender Tindertot Rastleknot, and Cendamos, the Paladin.
Cahfei spent several weeks exploring and researching the swamps of Endraal. Undead arose from the corpses of fallen travelers and ancient warriors in these strange lands, and through his time spent here and several other abandoned sites of ages passed, Cahfei became well versed in the dark arts.
Soon afterward, Kharlia would face the travesty known as the Second Abyssal War. Cahfei would not let his gifts go to waste in this time of need, and offered his abilities wherever asked.
The Plague
The beginning of the Second Abyssal War was marked by a crimson plague of biblical proportions. The lands were tainted and stained with both scarlet fumes in the sky and human blood upon the open streets. Cahfei, along with several others, worked ceaselessly for weeks in search of any sort of cure to the sickness, but to no avail. Eventually, a swath of plagued gas encapsulated the land, and Cahfei was brought with several others to a safe house amidst the the plague. Within, Cahfei defended the other patrons from an enraged and temporarily insane Xife Tinsu. Knocked out, he was dragged right into the most tainted land of all: The very Endraal swamps he spent so often his hours studying.
Abandoned, and now plagued, Cahfei went into solitude in a dank hovel of a lab deep underground. Here, he spent his last living moments finding the location of an artifact that would cure the plague. His friends and allies hurried to the location, and, after a short time of befuddling by an artifact creature (Known as the 'Runic Riddle Master'), received the Urn of Life. Tides of cleansing air and water stormed forth from it, awakening the plagued lands, and casting away the vile beast that caused it.
Cahfei, however, was no more. He had passed away in the ensuing time it took for mankind to find the cure.
