Lucius
Once upon a time Lucius was an incredibly gifted sailor and promising young officer.
Being originally born in the city of Alliria, one might argue that Lucius had the sea in his blood. Both of his parents worked on ships, his father being a First Officer and his mother a gifted Navigator. He was born to the sea, and from a young age Lucius proved himself to be a capable sailor.
This only continued as he grew, and he spent many of his formative years onboard the various ships that his mother and father served on. It was here that he learned the various skills he now holds.
After decades at sea, his family settled down in Alliria itself. His father became a merchant advisor and his mother joined the cartographer's guild. Though this time in his life was far more calm, for Lucius it was near impossible. The sea always called to him, almost always a siren in his ear. Despite this call his parents forbid him from following in their path, preferring him instead to take advantage of their newfound wealth and become an educated man.
At the age of eighteen Lucius decided to run away.
For the next five years the young man would bounce from ship to ship, eventually landing himself on a Pirate Vessel known as the Black Concordant.
It was aboard this ship that Lucius found his true stride. The young man proved himself not only a capable sailor, but warrior as well. The Concordant would operate often in the northern seas above Epressa, making it's home base in the floating city of Teth.
During the final voyage of the Black Concordant on return to Teth the ship met an utterly gruesome fate.
Though not many are sure what occurred to the vessel and the handful of survivors refuse to speak of it, the Ship was felled and eventually sunk to the bottom of the ocean. It is said by way of rumor and tale that The Concordant met it's end at the hands of a Black Kraken, cursed by a powerful wizard after the Captain made a fateful decision.
It is unknown whether there is any truth to this story.
During the sinking of the Concordant, through bouts of utter panic and fear, Lucius found a new side of himself. In the midst of the attack Lucius heard the song of a siren within his mind, and without thought save for that of survival he reached out towards it.
Though whatever it was he found saved him and several of his fellow crewmembers, the memory of whatever magics lay within him cling like a dark abyss to his mind.
Since the sinking of the Concordant Lucius seeks to drown both the memories of the sirens call and the face of what sank his ship. Over the last few years he has fallen heavily into the use of various drugs, living within the filth of Teth's gutters and suppressing what he could be.
