History

Origins

Gratus was born to Arin and Eric Stormbearer on the 25th Sun, 4th Umbral Moon, year 1550. At a healthy 10 ponze already, the couple knew their boy would grow to be rather tall someday. Eric, a member of the Sultansworn and Arin, a lesser nobles daughter, worked hard to give Gratus the kind of upbringing that would make them proud.

At a young age, Eric began to train Gratus in swordplay. His skills sharpened quickly, so that by the time he reached his eighteenth birthday his talent with a blade was unquestionable. His father's eyes filled with pride when he would talk of his son and how he would soon become a Sultansworn, following in his father's footsteps.

That, however, was not Gratus's plan. Guarding a silly highborn fool, standing around doing nothing all day, the thought of that life, left him bored and disinterested. It was the stories he was hearing that had his attention. Clashes between pirates and Sahagin, companies of adventurers raising steel against Titan and Leviathan. Against his families wishes, Gratus set out to be an adventurer.
