Dace

Founder of the family estate in Axtli, Talerium. He served as a good knight, always following orders and protecting his realm. He tried to learn mercantile skills, and for a short time was a trader. Unfortunately a few months later decided was unfit for military life, and took an early retirement.


Hexic - Sirion

When in fact brother to Dace, Hexic soon became a disgrace to the family name. After serving Sirion for only a day, deserted his post. He never came to the family mansion in Axtli. Some say he died to monsters or undead not long after his desertion. Dace never believed that to be the case. He knew his brother to be a capable and resourceful man, and would one day arrive in Axtli to greet his brother.


Hexic - Barony of Makar

Cousin of Dace and Hexic, his resemblance to Hexic the First was impeccable. Some claimed it was the same man. He served in the Barony military for a time, and later converted to priesthood. He retired early at the age of 24 as well. It was later disproven to have been the first Hexic. Dace swore his brother had a scar over his right eye, earned from sparring with Dace.


Rifter - Taselak

Half-brother of Dace and Hexic, Rifter was bloodthirsty. He chose the South Eastern Islands because of its reputation for combat. While in the service of Taselak, Taselak was facing a losing battle. Both Torn and Ikalak were pressing Taselak's frontlines. When they broke, Rifter decided to defect to Ikalak. as had become family tradition, he retired at the ripe old age of 25.


Rifter - Barony of Makar

Brother of Hexic of the Barony. He traveled to the Barony to fight alongside his brother. For a while they did. They got into a horrible fight and went their separate paths. Hexic became a priest, and Rifter became a hero. Rifter volunteered to be part of a small taskforce, led by the Executioner himself. He became Second-in-Command, and proved his worth when the Executioner was captured. When he heard his brother was retiring, he decided to as well.


Doctor - Three Brothers

The Doctors were all named such at birth by Dace. Dace had been fond of the story 'Doctor Jeckyl and Mr. Hyde'. His wife was not pleased. The Doctors however had no desire to become knights, and lived as adventurers. The first went to Beluaterra. The second to Dwilight. The third stayed close to home, going north to Darka.


Firstborn

He began his life of adventure in Enweil. Unaware of the laws, he engaged in dueling. This became his favourite activity. Soon his fines to the realm equaled more than he would ever be able to pay. He left, and joined Plergoth. After a short time he decided that dueling legally was not nearly as much fun as illegally. At this time Enweil had made dueling legal, so he decided he would join the next realm he came across that banned dueling. He then joined Avalon. Laws later reformed to make it neither legal, or illegal. He did not care, Avalon had become his home.


Secondborn

Landing in Pian en Luries, Doctor made friends quickly with other adventurers. Nina Tai and Brandon. Doctor worked exclusively for the Duke of Giask, and Arbitrator of the realm, Ludovico. It did not take him long to find three unique items, to earn his knighthood. However, upon selling the third item to Queen Alanna, Doctor was arrested. Having neglected his lessons in Axtli, he did not understand the charges against him. As such he made matters worse for himself, which led to Ludovico ordering his execution. Doctor managed to escape and contact both Nina Tai and Brandon. Before he could board a ship in Swallowtown, he was arrested again and executed in Giask. He was 22.


Thirdborn

The youngest of the brothers, Doctor set himself to the service of Darka. He wanted to get away from home, but not too far. He got bored with his life of adventure, thought he could do something more. He set to work forging documents as a knight. He did not know if these documents would work or not, but he would try.

After completing his forgery, Doctor traveled to the Colonies, and joined the realm of Oritolon as a Trader. When the current banker stepped down, he announced himself for the position and was appointed Banker of Oritolon. Doctor tried since to support Hexic in his endeavors to save Everguard by sending him money when he could, until the time Hexic left Everguard and stepped down as High Commander.

Hexic - Everguard

Son of Hexic from the Barony. When learning his cousin Doctor had been executed in Pian en Luries, he traveled to Dwilight looking for revenge. Upon arrival he learned that the gods themselves had struck Ludovico with a bolt of lightening. He had happened to land in Everguard at the time, and chose to stay. For a brief time he was Lord of Ammando, and later became Marshal of the Phoenix Guard.
