────•⋅⊰༻♥༺⊱⋅•──── Hassians Lore! If you play Palia and havent gotten through his lore, dont open the Spoiler! -To those he isn't close to, Hassian comes across as curt and reserved, often refusing to engage in pleasantries and preferring brooding silence or bluntness instead. Duty and honour are also important to him. Hassian has high standards of other people and dislikes anyone who doesn't contribute to the village or disrupts the natural order of the environment. He is also very independent and an experienced outdoorsman, often preferring to sleep outside in his grove.
- Unbeknownst to most, Hassian is a bit of a romantic. Hassian regularly checks out mushy romance novels from the Library, and one of his favorite stories is about the lover's constellation. In private he spills his feelings into flowery poetry, which he would consider mortifying to share with anyone. When pursuing someone romantically, he takes the process very seriously and will go to great lengths to follow traditional Majiri courtship rituals, even though other Majiri consider them outdated. Hassian is often warm and affectionate towards animals and children, such as Auni, who he often plays cards with
-As a result of his nomadic upbringing, Hassian is very pragmatic and not very fond of decorating or design. He considers a home to simply be shelter, and not something to make a fuss over. He sometimes misses traveling and not having one place to call home, and says he resents being tied down. However, he has also expressed a desire to have a purpose, a home, and someone to share it with, and wonders why those are hard to find.
History
-Hassian is a young adult originally from a nomadic group of hunters from the other side of the Kilima Mountains. During childhood, he was raised by his two mothers, Sifuu and Taylin, who were bounty hunters. While he and Sifuu would often butt heads, Hassian was closest to Taylin, who taught him how to hunt and told him stories about the constellations, often stargazing together. One of his favorite stories was about the lover's constellations. Taylin and Hassian would write letters to each other when she was away from home on hunting missions. One day his mothers were assigned to kill a monster threatening a nearby village. Although Taylin claimed to have killed the monster, the village was destroyed in the process and the beast was seen leaving the scene afterwards. Their people accused Taylin of lying about the kill for the reward, but the huntress insisted the beast must have regenerated somehow. Since Sifuu stood by her wife, the couple and Hassian were kicked from the village. Unfortunately, other villages heard of the incident and wouldn't accept Taylin, believing her to be a liar. Taylin left her wife and son to kill the beast and clear her name, but never returned.[3] While he understood why she wanted to clear her name, Hassian didn't understand why she chose to sacrifice her life for it. Although she was presumed to be dead, he couldn't bring himself to move on from Taylin's absence like Sifuu did.
-Sometime after moving to Kilima Valley, Hassian established himself as a hunter. Villagers would often come to him for animal goods such as leather, pelts, or antlers. Hassian eventually met Tamala in Bahari Bay and struck up an exchange for pelts. Tamala invited him to her bedroom to display the pelts and a relationship blossomed soon after. However, it was mostly one-sided. Hassian was very passionate about the relationship, considering it serious enough to propose. However, Tamala saw it only as a casual fling, turning him down due to his "sour" demeanor and immaturity. Devastated by her rejection, Hassian rarely spoke to or about Tamala following their breakup.
-In current day, Hassian roams between Kilima Valley and Bahari Bay, hunting with his Plumehound, Tau. He usually sleeps outdoors, although he occasionally visits his friends and family at the Inn or goes home for dinner at his mother's request.
