Background:
Kire Ashe was born Jordan Smith to a shopkeeper in Verbabonc. His father had hopes he would help out in the store, but Jordan would have none of that. By the age of 16 he already was off gallivanting around town with one group or another. In those days, Kire was known as "RatSkull" because of his penchant for leaving behind a single dead rat on heists as a trademark. He was never a very good thief, but the gang kept him around because he seemed to cheer everyone up.
Kire would be gone from home for days on end. He fell in with a group of activist civilians who worked together under the ruise of ousting the current mayor of Devarnish. During these times Kire went by his activist name, "Blentitude Goodfry". He had his own soapbox in the middle of town where the other near-homeless people would come to hear him speak, and then march on the mayor's office on some tirade. Unfortunately the only thing these antics ever created was jail time for young Jordan.
It was here that he met Emil Dorn for the first time. Kire was bailed out under the tradeoff that he'd help out around Emil's place. Through Emil, he learned music and he learned to exercise his frustrations with society through this. In fact, he became Devarnish's only political musician, most known for his hit song "Dead Mother Reopolt" which was a chant at the time about "this old bag in office," as he would say. Eventually Kire ran into a group of friends who all had the similar interest of meeting at the tavern late at nigh to drink out these sorrows.
These were good times for Kire, he made enough money to eat and drink and was able to pull off some good shows when he wouldn't let his political diversions get in the way. Kire eventually wandered off and away from Devarnish to a town called Foo. Once he got to Foo, Kire toned down his lyrics and snuck into the aristocrat crowd. His eventual goal was to bend things to his whim from inside. He was intent on meeting everyone and anyone high up on the Foo foodchain. Eventually he became a court musician for Duke Elbator of Foo. His days as a courtesan were numbered though.
Once he found out of the atrocities the Duke caused on the civilian people he couldn't help himself anymore. He found some resistance fighters who shared his feelings, . He helped this local gang gain entrance to the palace and assainate the evil Duke. After this Kire rejoiced in reminisince as he again returned to the alias of "RatSkull". When he heard of Emil's death, something inside made him want to return again to his most fond days of youth... as an aspiring musicain. Kire gave up the street gang and returned home.
