History
Hsu was born in Kaineng City to aristocratic parents who pressured him into studying the art of Elementalisim. His father preached to him that he would be a powerful Warrior of the Elements and would make him proud. However, Hsu did not truly wish to learn the ways of the Elementalist... he wished to learn the powers of the Ritualist. By his father's wishes he studied to become a powerful Elementalist, all the while obtaining secret lessons from the powerful Spirit Empath of Kaineng. Hsu went on to become a feared elementalist in the Canthan Imperial army, but the spirits called to Hsu like a siren's song. The Spirit Empath had taught Hsu many dark spells to summon the tortured spirits of the dead; Hsu secretly practiced this art for many years. Years went by and Hsu's mentor eventually joined the ranks of the Am Fah; Hsu was eventually ordered to take a team to hunt down his mentor as well as other Am Fah. The Spirit Empath intentionally allowed Hsu to slay him and the rest of his men... once Hsu's team had left, he came back to the body of his dead mentor and began the workings of an ancient spell. Hsu used this to absorb all the power and knowledge of The Spirit Empath. This change Hsu, making him a much more morbid and disturbed person. He almost immediately left the ranks of the Imperial Army and set out on and unknown path.
