Abhi

Full name is Abhinava Khose, but he's commonly referred to by "Abhi". He is from Ghurana Nent and has "walked seventeen years under Kalaad's sky".

In the early part of his story he struggle on how to best come out to his family as both gay (referred to "sakhret" in Nentian society) and someone who does not want to kill animals (which is a huge deal when your entire family's only means of sustaining themselves is hunting animals in the savanna).

He is the first person (that we currently know of) to find the 6th Kenning, which controls animal life, as a plaguebringer."Abhi’s family have always been hunters, but Abhi wants to choose a different life for himself. Embarking on a journey of self-discovery, Abhi soon learns that his destiny is far greater than he imagined: a powerful new magic thrust upon him may hold the key to defeating the giants once and for all–if it doesn’t destroy him first. Set in a magical world of terror and wonder, this novel is a deeply felt epic of courage and war, in which the fates of these characters intertwine–and where ordinary people become heroes, and their lives become legend."-from https://kevinhearne.com/books/a-plague-of-giants/
