Biography
Before The Seas
Kail's childhood mostly consisted of survival in the streets of Ul'dah, competing with the myriad number of criminals and Ala Mhigan refugees to eke out what life he could coax in the city of merchants. Living hand to mouth from day to day, he stole what he could, hid in what abandoned buildings he could find, and did his best to be as unseen as possible. Unfortunately being little more than a child with animal instincts and a will to live, Kail made plenty of enemies in the sandy streets, leading to his capture and sale to the underground slave trade of Lisma.
The Howling Sin
Kail found himself sold to crazed drunken sot of a Highlander, called Argus, for a sum total of 20 gil. Lashed to one of the many oars of Argus' ship the Howling SinKail found himself rowing in the hold for near a decade. Hope came for the slaves of the Howling Sin in the form of a young Doman girl whom they dubbed "Songbird". However the events surrounding the mutiny of the ship and the escape of it's slaves are events which Kail has worked very hard to supress word of. Regardless, the end result was the same, Kail and a handful of survivors managed to sail the war torn hull of the Sin into the bay of Limsa Lominsa, before scuttling it and swimming to shore.
Present
While most of the other slaves scattered to the winds, Kail stayed behind in Limsa and made a name for himself among the Dutiful Sisters of the Edelweiss, taking back to the sea that he had come to love, and making life hell for any and everyone that had their fingers in the slave trade. He and a few of the other slaves from the Sin have kept in touch, and begun pooling their efforts towards the goal of a slave-free Eorzea, till the sea swallows all. Kail now makes berth with the Branded of the free company Aeon, though what he's doing there is anyone's guess.
