The Beginning

Brance Indirik began his rise among the ranks of nobility in the Theocracy of Morek, and the island of Dwilight. He arrived in the realm with the first founding wave of settlers. He quickly gained recognition in the realm as the first Viscount of Linhai. As a noble of Morek he was also introduced to the Blood Stars, and the religion of Sanguis Astroism.

Astrum

When the expansion of Morek was well underway, Brance began to look toward the western shores as a way to expand the influence and following of the Blood Stars. His gaze found the prosperous trade city of Libidizedd. After discussions with the Prophet of Sanguis Astroism and the Grandmaster of Morek, Brance became determined to form a new colony on the island. The first colony expedition failed. Infestations of monsters on the Mimer peninsula proved to be too heavy, and the colonist's forces were nearly eradicated. A second colony attempt was able to must their forces, avoid many of the monster groups, and successfully fight the few they could not escape. The colony attempt was successful, and lead to the founding of the theocracy of Astrum. The first ruler of Astrum, Vasila Alexandria Dwarvenite, appointed Brance as the first Duke of Libidizedd in recognition of his initiative and efforts in planning the colony.

A Visit from the Prophet

Holy Prophet Mathurin Hossenfeffer stopped briefly in Libidizedd to visit the new realm he had endorsed, and to which he had contributed church funds. You can read about the visit.

Falconry

Since his childhood Brance has pursued the noble sport of falconry. During his time in Morek as Viscount of Linhai he became quite accomplished at hunting with falcons. Upon departing for the colonization of Libidizedd, Brance was forced to leave his falcons and hawks behind. Much to his surprise, the locals in Libidizedd had knowledge of the sport of falconry. To his amazement they had even had some success with the use of the Sea Eagle in falconry. Brance became enamored of the idea of using the Sea Eagle, and began to train his own eagle for the hunt.

Fiduciary of Astrum

Brance announced his candidacy for the office of Fiduciary (banker). When no other candidate presented themselves for consideration, he was appointed to the office by Vasila Alexandria Dwarvenite.

Bandit Attack

While returning from trade mission to purchase food from Caiyun, Brance was set upon by a group of bandits in Nimh. He managed to fight them off single handed.
