<string
id="prebackstory.spc_wanderer_aserai_0"
text="{=EMkaeD9M}Hmm. Many men would begin their story by reciting their ancestry. I will not do this. A man should be judged on his own deeds, and a long list of ancestors does him no credit. Also, my family does not acknowledge me, so why should I acknowledge them?" />
<string
id="backstory_a.spc_wanderer_aserai_0"
text="{=RaSZtTqh}I was the son of a slave. My master, a judge, raised me in his house, but it was clear that he would never spend much time to ensure my success in the world. Still, I was tutored with his other sons, and chose to study medicine as a young man. I thought I could perhaps be a physician." />
<string
id="backstory_b.spc_wanderer_aserai_0"
text="{=9AIyvTmF}Well... I was soon disabused of this idea. A doctor starting out in the world must either have a great deal of money, or family that ensures him a long list of clients. I had neither. Instead of working in the city, I took service aboard a ship." />
<string
id="backstory_c.spc_wanderer_aserai_0"
text="{=ZuHolx2r}Professionally, it was perhaps the best thing I could have done. Fevers, injuries, festering sores - the seaman has in greater number and variety than any manner of land-dweller, I imagine. But I have little patience for life aboard, the monotony, the tyranny of captains, the lack of any space to oneself, the groaning of timbers, the constant smell of rotting bilge..." />
<string
id="response_1.spc_wanderer_aserai_0"
text="{=A9r6SnWx}Yes, it must be trying." />
<string
id="response_2.spc_wanderer_aserai_0"
text="{=B7cMisFf}Weren't handed life on a silver platter, were you? Such a tragedy." />
<string
id="backstory_d.spc_wanderer_aserai_0"
text="{=HaQlEZPq}At any rate, I have a bit of money to my name, and the leisure to wait a few weeks before choosing my next employer." />
<string
id="generic_backstory.spc_wanderer_aserai_0"
text="{=vgcTdEvc}I was the son of a slave, but my father bought me my freedom and an apprenticeship with a healer. I could make a lot of money as a doctor if I came from a well-known family that would attract patients. But I don't, so I offer my skills to war-leaders, who cannot afford to be so picky." />
