I wish that I knew more about how I came into this world and why I am the way I am.  I, to the best of my knowledge, have always been unnaturally weak and frail but how could this have happened to me and where was I truly born.  So many unanswered questions but at least I know that wherever I am from and whatever I am I am not human at least not fully, my bright red eyes are enough to convince me of that.  I have no idea why the first memory I have is from such an old age I mean 10 years I lived with no memory?  Perhaps I was created or summoned here regardless what I do know is that no one deserves to suffer as I did all those years ago nearly starving to death in the woods.  If not for the old man I would have died and wouldn't have never been able to help those in need and find the truth about myself.  Whatever it takes, I will discover what happened to me and why I am like this while healing and rendering aid to those who need it along the way.

backstory

Aiken's father is an insanely powerful demon who had the goal to conquer as much of the world as he could and had a cult worshiping him. To help speed up his conquest and because for as powerful as he was, his mind was what made him one of the greatest threats. He came up with a plan to, before his conquest, choose a strong witch from his cult to bear a child for him to mold into a flawless killing machine.

After Aiken was born the demons worshipers began a magical ritual with Aiken as the target and his father leading the enchantment. After hitting a critical point where lots of energy was in Aiken but still incredibly unstable the enchantment was interrupted by a group of holy warriors and with this distraction the demon lost concentration for a fraction of a second but that is all it took. There was a explosion of what seemed like pure malice and darkness originating from Aiken and it killed all those who were to close to the ritual and the demon seemed to have his connection to the mortal plane severed.

The remainder of the cultists and many of the holy warriors were killed and appeared to have their eyes burned out and Aiken in the middle of the circle was no different. The remaining few, to horrified and traumatized to notice the vile magic coming off of what they thought was Aiken's corps, decided that the infant that was killed in the horrific accident deserved to be buried so they dug a grave and buried him.

Around 10 or so years later the magic keeping Aiken who was now buried alive was truly beginning to fade leaving him not only alive but with his eyes recovered and it seemed to have permanently left him weakened with a sickly, near death like appearance, pale skin with the life drained from it, and eyes with a deep shade of red. He was buried in a grave that was shallow with soft, loose soil that he was able to dig himself out of and even though he felt like his battered broken body would give out at any second it didn't.

After what felt like hours or maybe even days of dragging himself through an endless wilderness he collapsed to tired, parched and hungry to move another inch when he heard a voice shouting just as his vision faded to black he saw he was being approached by an elderly man. After waking with a startle he noticed that he felt well rested and warm he got up greeted by his savor with a bowl of stew and cup of water. After sating his thirst and hunger the old man spoke to him and due to his origin he couldn't understand him.

Despite the old mans confusion of the child's lack of ability to speak or communicate in any way seemingly, he refused to give up on the strange child. The old man was able to teach Aiken about everything from staunching and cleaning wounds, and giving various medicines that help cure ailments to calming ones self and their patient. When Aiken was 15 he found that the old man now, as he felt anyway was his father, was suffering from a illness he had never seen before. Despite his best efforts and with everything he was taught about healing his efforts were in vain and his father figure soon died.

Even though the loss truly hurt him he moved on going from town to town treating the sick and injured while asking for little but essentials from those who could afford to give them to him. After a few years of this passed he came across a older woman collapsed on the side of the road. He was able to bring her back to full health and as payment for the kind act, and the fact that she noticed his potential for magic, she offered the greatest gift she could think of knowledge. He learned much of his magic over the next year and proved to be a quick study picking up and learning even some of the more advanced spells in just a few short years. After learning a great deal about healing and body control magic he decided to move on and soon after found himself at the Isle of Luachmhar which brings us to present day.
