History: Mavok was born a normal human into the tribe of the Absanas. 
The Absanas were a nature-loving tribe, that cherished the world around
them and did not hunt for sport, only taking what they needed and making sure to
give back to the land.  They taught illusion magic to their tribe to hide
themselves from the stronger, more powerful tribes that wanted to gain
their power.  The Absana were an important tribe because there was a prophecy
throughout the tribes of the Great Forest in Onassa: that a Great One
would be born, and he would flourish in magic and be a master of the hunt. 
He would unite the tribes.  Strangely, the other tribes did not want to
unite.  They preferred that they would be correct.  They also wanted this
"Great One" to be in their tribe, since it was foretold he would be wise. 
They knew, however, that the Absana were the only tribe in Onassa that would
give birth to a warrior who was adept at magic and the hunt.  Mavok is that
child.  When he was born, the Absana were attacked because they had not
been able to keep their illusion of a rock wall up during his birth.  When
he was born, he and his mother were whisked away by the Elder to the forest,
where an entourage of animals led them to safety.  They were protected there,
and Mavok was taught by the animals in ways of tracking that no other being
knew.  His mother taught him how to fight, and what she knew of magic. 
This was very little.  So, when Mavok reached the Age of Passing (25), he
moved out into the world to learn more of magic and to fulfill the prophecy
to reunite the tribes of Onassa.
