History
They were born to a clan named the Lapis Stained Clan which found home near an old mine. They were picked on by the other children for acting bossy towards the more trouble making kids. They however get did get along with their mother, Vibrant Trail. Vibrant was one of the caretakers for the clan so they often ended up helping cook and take care of the really young kids.

They were confused by their name when they were given it. “They will need your second chance”? What the hell did that mean??

This wasn’t enough for them though. They were ultra curious and wanted to learn about the world and felt there was no better way to learn than hands on experience. It was a frequent argument between them and the clan elders. So when a archaeologist party was passing through when they were a teen they hopped on the chance to offer their skills. In the end they were let onto the party since they were a local and could cook and clean.

They bonded with a woman named Vylona, half elven woman only a year older, quite quickly. Vylona was acting as protection for the party as she was a talented monk. They were impressed by her and felt like they could be open around her.

They were always the caretaker of the group concerned with everyone but themself. In the course of their work they became familiar with Hathor and became a follower of the god.

Late one night they felt drawn into one of the ruins the group had been exploring, and within they received a vision from Hathor.

Or at least that’s what they said. Leaving out the part where they fell and hurt themself badly hitting their head on the way down. They were down there for hours thinking they were going to die and the only reason anyone would notice was that breakfast wasn’t made. They prayed to Hathor and thanks to their faith, desperation, and the fact it was in the ruins of one of her temples she responded by granting Chance a vision that they’d be okay along with divine power as a cleric. After the vision they used their new found magic to heal themself and get out of the temple.

The group was happy to have a new source of information and support. Although one of them, Vylona, was concerned for Chance as they were acting strangely and has having trouble cooking or recalling things.

In order to try to help Chance be functional Vylona started to teach them the way of the monk. Chance was thankful for this and it did help offer some clarity. The two became pretty close. Chance even going with Vylona back to her home after the excursion to Chance’s continent (name this place) was over.

They lived together for some time, acting as references for less talented archaeologists or commoners in need of assessing something. They never said it out loud but they loved each other very much, even to the point of sharing a bed.

They started getting glimpses into futures with them being carted off to the island of the damned. For as much as they tried to ignore it they couldn’t in the end. Giving in to the idea that it was already written out for them to have to leave Vylona and go to that wicked place. They figured there must be something that needs them there, that it isn’t just pointless abandonment.

They left a note to Vylona telling her that fate had pulled them away but they’d be back as soon as they could. Then they went and set the guard’s building on fire. They were arrested and it was decided they would be sent to the island of the damned.

Personality
They are a fatalistic who puts the greater need before any personal need of theirs. And that extends to simply valuing others over themself and looking after their needs before their own. Their role is that of a support after all, so they have to. And they have to be okay on that note, so their personal problems get ignored. Besides, what issues are there if they are doing everything right? What shortcomings could a hero have? As it turns out a holier than thou attitude is a big one. They just think they know best so clearly should be listened to, even in personal matters or matter of opinion. That and the fact that they are a pressure cooker of emotional trauma.

They are also unsure of their identity and feel quite changed by what’s happened to them. They used to be curious and smart person with a stubborn attitude but now have given themself over to lofty ideals in an effort to not have to think about what happened to them.

Involvement
Second Chance is one of the four people sent onto the island from the same boat, the others being Luakini, Amethyst Titania & Constance Fay.
