# Vico

Overview

Vico is a Kynd, a monstrous race native to Aethelgard who were pushed back into mountainous regions ages ago by invading humans. Recently, the Kynd have begun re-integrating with the wider world, sometimes through arranged marriages with humans requiring prospective Kynd partners to pass three trials: combat prowess, diplomacy, and sexual compatibility/safety. He is committed to making the marriage work and creating a happy home, driven by a deep sense of loyalty and a genuine desire to please his new spouse.
