History

A Humble Beginning

Born on the 12th Sun of the Sixth Astral Moon in the 1,547th Cycle of the Sixth Astral Era, Brinoix Ahlrine began his life in Gridania with his parents Corin and Isaure. His older brother, Cyril, was eight cycles older than the young wildwood elezen. Brinoix's father, Corin, was an archer of the Red Otters, who helped to defend the realm. His mother, Isaure, stayed at home, tending to an impressive garden and watching over her kids while her husband was deployed forward.

Growing up, Brinoix would always be pushed around by the other children until Cyril got involved to stand up for his younger brother. Over time, Brinoix gained a talent for wood carving, a hobby a very much enjoyed. While he may not have made many friends growing up, his appreciation for nature grew over time.

By the time Brinoix had turned 15, his sister Coline had been born. In the same cycle, Cyril choose to follow in his father's path and joined the Gods' Quiver. Only six years later, Cyril was assigned to the same squadron in the Red Otters as his father.

The End of an Age

With the threat of the Garlean invasion, Corin and Cyril were deployed much more often. Brinoix would stay at home with his mother to help care for his younger sister, Coline. The determined elezen would take on different odd jobs to make enough gil to help support his mother and sister.

During the 1,571st cycle, Corin fell in battle. Cyril brought his father's body all the way back to Gridania to be properly buried. Isaure begged her son to stay after he had returned to Gridania, alas, after his father's funeral, Cyril returned to battle as he felt it to be his duty. No longer able to stand all the memories of her local surroundings, Isaure decided to move to a small village out in the Black Shroud. Brinoix accompanied his mother and sister as they hitched a cart up to a couple of chocobos and headed out.

Not even a year passes before the Calamity strikes. After the Battle of Carteneu, Cyril was never heard from. It was assumed that he had fallen in battle after Dalamund crashed down and Bahamut laid waste to Eorzea. Fires raging through the Black Shroud encompassed the village where Isaure, Coline, and Brinoix lived. Brinoix tried to lead his younger sister to safety after his mother had been engulfed in the massive flames. A midst the chaos, Brinoix lost his footing and tumbled down a hill. Slamming his head against a tree, the elezen fell unconscious and awoke to find his village turned to ash. From what Brinoix could tell, there was no trace of his sister's body to be found. He realized that she was more than likely dead, but the hope that she was alive was the only thing that he could hang onto. Brinoix searched all throughout the Black Shroud for his sister, with no luck. His searching brought him further and further from his homeland as he aimlessly traveled Eorzea for any sign of his sister.

Welcome Home

After five years, Brinoix had finally given up hope. He had been many places, seen many things, and met many people. Everywhere he went, he saw broken lives and ravaged landscapes. Many nights Brinoix had to sleep out in the wilderness, as he could hardly get any gil together for the luxury of a warm bed. The experience hardened the elezen, and as he became much more used to being on his own, his ability to interact with others became more foreign to him. With little thought as to where to go, Brinoix simply decided to return to the Black Shroud. Along his journey, the elezen had a rough encounter with a small group of Ixal. Believing his life to be over, Brinoix was ready to accept his fate, until a traveling lancer intervened and saved Brinoix's life. Unfortunately, the lancer's rescue was at the cost of his own life. Even though the Ixal had been slain, the poison of one of their blades had done it's deed.

All Brinoix could do was try to ensure the mortally wounded lancer was as comfortable as possible before he passed away and returned to the Aether. As he sat next to the lancer, who turned out to be a hyur, the two traded stories next to a small fire that Brinoix had put together. During the lancer's last moments, Brinoix tried to understand why a man would give his life for a complete stranger.

The next day, Brinoix had a revelation. He decided that he was tired of being helpless while those around him died. The world seemed like it was coming towards it's end, and fighting to the death seemed much more fitting than simply waiting to die. Taking the hyur's lance in hand, Brinoix continued on toward Gridania, in search of giving his life purpose.
