Acht was originally a tall-man with no feathers nor hooves, who one day found themself very fond of a girl that went to their school. Callie was, however, an elf, a race known to have the quadruple lifespan of the average tall-man.

Acht despised the thought of leaving her to be by herself until the depths of hell decided to purge her soul from the land of the living, so they began studying every form of magic they could possibly use to elongate their lifespan. When they learned about chimeras and how the length of their lives changed depending on the creatures that were combined, they decided to, uh, curse themselves for eternity.
