Karkinos

Karkinos was an adult elf from the far off city-planet of Ravnica when he was abducted, transformed, and held by the Simic Combine. Now he has been made into a crab-like Simic hybrid, stouter than the average elf, with blue-green skin in chitinous patches and protrusions. Another hybrid, a Kung Fu master, freed Karkinos and his fellows from their captors. This savior teleported the hybrids to the remote and serene wilds of Faerun, where they established a monastery. Here, the Symic hybrids have devoted themselves to following their master’s righteous example. Karkinos has become the foremost pupil of the Way of the Twilight Path.'''

Over the past four months, the Twilight Master's once strong body has stooped, grown frail, and developed rashes of rotting sores. The sensei was once resurrected in the course of his past adventures, and now has fallen prey to the death curse. He has refused Karkinos's entreaties to seek out the cause of the curse, believing it to be too dangerous, but Karkinos is determined to end his master's ailment.
