Biography

Childhood 1550-1562

He was born on the open waters of Eorzea to the late Au Ra mother -Limka Volfire- and an Elezen father -Livoer Volfire- who loved the life of sea. Once his family docked in Limsa Lominosa he was already four months old.His mother however did not survive the trip with his birth being what took her final breath. His father worked at the "Dutiful Sisters of Edelweiss" to help support them as he raised him. He only talked about his mother mentioning she was a blacksmith with a spiky personality that matched her cute physique. However his father loved and raised him dearly training him not only to train his body ,but also train his mind. At the age of 5 the sisters taught Zachary the basics of pick pocketing and rouge work. Life was decent with his dad teaching him tricks of his trade ,but also tutoring him in ways on how the world worked. Exploring the city Zach hung around the guild watching people work and studying from afar different techniques and such. Even asking how certain tools and weapons work like the musket's used by high ranking pirates and mercenaries. However this happy life was to be short lived. His father was betrayed by a fellow rouge and left to die by an ambush of the Bloody Excutioners. By the time aid arrived it was far too late. Leaving Zach an orphan at the age of 8. He refused being adopted into the guild believing their negligence got his father killed. Choosing a life on the streets and sea. He picked up trades to be a pirate however he still retained his father's teachings in knowledge studying books and documents whenever he got his hands on them. To this day he kept the knives his father used called "Tide's Loving Daggers" who she said was forged by his mother as a wedding gift.

Teenage 1562-1571

Working in the docks and ship to ship taught Zachary the basics of not only pirating but also the inner and outer workings of ship trade. Building and repairing ships helping out with planning routes trained him in carpentry and Blacksmithing. He even got to experience working on a merchant vessel at the age of 15. Seeing the income the vessel pulled in however made him have bigger aspirations. "Theseg uys are making a fortune with just trinkets and goods. Yet lose a lot by buying boats like this.... What if i made the boat itself and sold from it?!" First he made practice conning and learning how to properly trade goods for funds from the Lalafel merchant Ukanna Ultalto . Soon he got in the habit of trading wares and haggling while he traveled as a ship hand from boat to boat. Soon at the age of 18 he had his own small fortune to his name of 184,000 Gil that he decided to train to become an adventure. He decided he still didn't want anything to do with the rouge's guild for now even though had had a lot of experience with them. First enlisting in the Marauders guild he started using his already ship forged body to train his physical prowess using his free time to sit in the Arcanist library to study formulas, and calculations in the guild. In the middle of his 18 year he soon graduated as an accomplished Maurader with his biggest mark being a full grown buffalo which he took on with two allies from the Maruaders guild. This however didn't satisfied Zachary thinking he needed to be prepared like his father said 'in both body and mind." Soon he also picked up the trade of becoming an Arcanist at the age of 19 creating his own formulas and designs to make spells stronger based on guild master's notes he left for public reading. After fully studying the library and current relations of city states economically he sets out to become an adventurer unfortunately during a dangerous time of the Garlean invasion.

Calamity 1572

During the great battle of Certeneau Flatts Zach was just an average adventurer. He only had small time experience in combat with his biggest mark just being a Frenzied Gobbue. He fought and took down 27 Garleans using his Axe and basic Arcane incantations as he held his own. During Dalamund descent however he was horrible injured due to his inexperience taking 2 heavy blows and a fire III to his chest as well. Bloodied and broken he lied on the battle field as Bahamut spread his wrath across the land he lied upon the ground feeling his entire body fade away. "This....is it?....I barely began to hope....for a better future....guess I'm hopeless.....case" Right as he said this Louisoix teleported all the remaining heroes away. Zachary being on death's door made him relive the moment for what felt like a eternity inside the time-space. Then he saw her the mother crystal Hydaelyn. He dreamed of fighting a robed figure with a Sword of Light piercing the darkness. Then he awoke on a traveler's vessel to Limsa Lominosa.

Post-Calamity1577-1578

Still shaken up once he arrived in Limsa Lominosa he was lead to the drowning wench. He was surprised to find that some of those he known well growing up completely forgotten him merchants, crew mates, and even his Maruader guild master. "This....this is impossible... what kind of life should I live now....Im just a nobody?" Confused he drifted to the Drowning Wench. After awhile the bar owner Baderon called him over. "Greetin's to ye, mate." Baderon told Zachary about the adventurer's guild in which he could get work. He first was station on Summerford's farms. He was a guard helping keep pirates in line and doing small farm task. As he worked along the farm he eventually came upon the Sea Reavers kidnapping plot. With assistance from Y'shtola from the waking sands he quelled the issue at hand. After his work at the farms finished he started to take his earnings and work towards earning his fortune once more.
