Background/History
Regular World:
Mocha was born to two fennec foxes, Michael and Leilani Yasashi, and when he was born, both parents, as well as the doctors at the hospital in which he was born, thought he was a girl because of his genitals. He was raised from his birth as a girl.
However, when he was only one and a half, not even old enough to remember this when he's older, his mother and father had a heated divorce, but unfortunately, Mocha fell into his less accepting father's custody following it.
As the fox grew old enough to talk and speak, he knew something was wrong with his body. He knew he didn't feel like a girl like his dad said he was. Something felt... off. As soon as he was old enough to fully realize the difference between males and females when he was six, he started calling himself a boy, and he went to great lengths to prove that he was one.
His father had know for a while that his behavior had been quite "tomboyish", but he refused to acknowledge the young fox as a boy and constantly treated him as a girl. The only person with whom he found acceptance for a few years was his father's brother, Travis, who Mocha ended up spending a lot of time with, and who ended up giving the fox his coffee-based nicknames.
Within another year, Mocha's father got worse, even going so far as to pull the Bible into arguing with his son about why he wasn't a boy. Believing the Bible to be the inerrant word of God, he constantly shoved his ideals down Mocha's throat. Due to this, the young fennec, and his uncle, as well, ended up falling away from Christianity, and the young boy ended up hating Christians who used their religion to justify bigotry.
Through the rest of his childhood, Mocha never caught a break from his father, but he was able to bear it, and with his uncle's support, he was still able to become an optimistic and outgoing boy with many interests and dreams.
Ragtag Mercenaries:
Mocha's birth circumstances were the same in the fantasy world of Ragtag Mercenaries, except when he was one and a half, his mother died from a plague that swept across the land, killing one-third of the known population.
Mocha didn't end up remembering much about his mother, but throughout his childhood with his father still treating him like the girl he knew he was not, he grew to resent his father even more than in the "normal world", eventually running away to his uncle at the age of thirteen, traveling halfway across the country he lives in with only a knapsack.
He spent about a year with his uncle, who ended up coming up with the nickname "Mocha" for him, before the adventurous part of him started to surface, and his uncle urged him to journey around the world and see everything there was to see.
