Character History

The Brothers Knoltros (0-16)

Flynt was born in the 1548 year of the Sixth Astral Era, in one of the many cramped row houses that line Limsa Lominsa lower levels. His mother was a trained seamstress, though in truth she had not worked as one in some time. For several years before Flynt's birth she had worked as a prostitute, frequenting the bars and taverns that adorned Limsa's docks and shadier districts. His father was a privateer, and died without ever knowing he was a father. After his birth, Flynt's mother gave up her newborn boy, leaving him on the doorstep of one of Limsa's many orphanages.

Flynt was left with nothing, not even a name. The name Flynt came from one of the wetnurses who worked in the orphanage, who claimed as a young boy he had a knack for "sparking trouble" like a piece of flint. Like most orphans in Limsa, Flynt grew up fast. Stealing bread and fish with the other orphans and fleeing the city guards was an almost daily ritual. That was until the day a young Lalafell by the name of Nipan arrived in Flynt's orphanage. Nipan was small, even for a Lalafell youth. On top of that it was obvious that the child hadn't spent the first six or so years of his life in the same circumstances as the orphans he now found himself surrounded by. The other orphans quickly descended onto the frightened newcomer, all of them excited to introduce Nipan to the struggles of his new life personally. For some reason unknown even to himself, Flynt couldn't allow it. Armed with an old broom handle which he had fashioned into a makeshift polearm, Flynt took the small Lalafell under his wing.

The two quickly became inseparable, and over the next six years the two boys began to consider one another brothers. They called themselves "The Brothers Knoltros", taking the name from that of a small alley which the two had claimed as their own. Flynt kept food in their bellies when the orphanage wasn't able to do so, and Nipan found the most creative ways to make gil in order to put something other than holes in their pockets. This was until an aging merchant, and prior orphan, saw Nipan explaining to Flynt a complex plan that would earn the two more gil than they had accrued up to that point. The merchant, Dallet, saw potential in the clever Lalafell and spoke with him about coming on as his apprentice.

Flynt knew that his younger brother would never accept the offer unless Flynt was to come along as well, and after meeting with Dallet himself he knew that was not an option instead. So he wrote a letter to his bright young brother, gave it to Dallet, and spent one final day wandering the streets of Limsa Lominsa with Nipan. He then explained that he would not be have to stay a few days before leaving for Ul’Dah, but that Dallet had chartered safe passage for him with another caravan. Upon their arrival in Ul’Dah, Dallet would give Nipan the letter Flynt had written to him, explaining why he did what he did, and that some day he would return for his brother.

Abilities and Skills

Personal

• Bestia infirmitatem – A large tome (that is mostly blank), which Flynt hopes to fill with information on the various monsters that wander Hydaelyn. • Coin Pouch – Typically with little to no gil inside. • Shugo – Flynt’s only “friend” and companion. This loyal chocobo has survived his own share of tribulations, and sometime seems to have his own unique, almost humorous personality.

Magic

• None in the traditional sense. That said, years studying the ancient arts of the spear and the dragoon have instilled in him the ability to perform some of the extraordinary feats associated with the order of the Dragoon.

Music Themes

Note: Vocal Songs are attributed themes in which the lyrics seem to relate or partially relate to the character. They don't mean to resemble the character's voice. The instrumental themes are meant to give an idea of the atmosphere around the character. Songs with character names (example: "Tidus's Theme") are NOT meant to indicate that the character is like the theme owner. I just find the instruments and melody fitting, not the character the song was originally addressed to.
