Roeban is an angry 17-year-old kid. According to the orphanage he was raised in, his mother, a prostitute, conceived him while working in a brothel and eventually went into labor prematurely. When she finally birthed him, Roeban had no pulse, wasn't breathing, and was cold. Despite the midwife's best efforts they were unable to resuscitate the baby, and wrapped it in a cheap shroud for burial. That evening as everyone slept, according to rumor, the shroud that wrapped the baby burst into flames as soon as the moonlight hit it at midnight, and burned away leaving a naked baby squalling and hungry. Believed to be a bad omen, and unable to raise the child anyway, Roeban's mother left the baby on the steps of an orphanage, and that was the last they ever saw of each other.
Because of Roeban's circumstances, he never really fit in with other children his age. He was small and underfed-looking growing up, and was subject to constant bullying from the other kids and even from many adults. While he never learned how to fight properly, he learned how to take a beating and suffers a crooked nose for it. All of this left him with a sour disposition that made him a less than likely candidate for adoption, and finally around age 12 he left on his own where he did odd jobs for anyone hiring a kid old enough to put to work and young enough to take advantage of. In addition to the broken nose, the entire lower half of Roeban's face is born with what the other orphans contemptuously called a "deathmark", which permanently left his face the deathly pale color of when he was stillborn.
Roeban has a fierce temper, and a sullen demeanor otherwise. He has had control of a fire beam since he was a young child, despite no formal training in magic or otherwise. Now that he is on his own, with no formal education or skills, he sees adventuring as his only chance to become something more than career a floor sweeper with a parlor trick.
