The Fathers Who Shaped Kaidro
October 6, 2026
By Kaidro
Some of the most personal parts of Kaidro came from the experiences Robert and Peggy had growing up, especially their relationships with their fathers and the loss they both experienced.
Childhood Memories & Spirituality
Peggy shares memories of her father, from learning how to swim together to growing up around Buddhism and watching her father meditate. These experiences shaped the way she came to think about life, death, and what may exist beyond the physical world.
Storytelling & Imagination
Robert's father was a storyteller who created characters and stories with him from a young age. He also read stories to him, including Harry Potter, while Robert spent his days drawing comics and creating his own fictional worlds. Those early creative experiences eventually helped shape Kaidro.
Turning Loss Into Kaidro
Although Robert and Peggy had different childhoods, they both experienced the loss of their fathers at a young age. Their shared experiences became a major influence on Kaidro's exploration of death, grief, spirits, and what happens beyond the physical world.
The Meaning Behind a Kaidro
In the Kaidro universe, a Kaidro is a Source Bearer, capable of bringing energy from the Astral Realm into the physical world. They are also connected to the planet's consciousness and help guide spirits from the physical world onward. These ideas grew from deeply personal experiences, making the story of Kaidro closely connected to the stories that shaped Robert and Peggy themselves.
