Sean, the brightest yet most ambitious and crafty of the Dixon sons. Originally from Ashforth (Eponllyn), he joined Perdan after he was disappointed with the leadership. However, Perdan's leaders were even more rigid, and he was criticized for beating up and arresting an adventurer, Lilith, causing her to lose several precious items she was repairing for one of the Perdan Lords.

<br>
 
Tired of being chastised, Sean then moved south along with his friend Sir Koloyok Sethar. He fit in there like a wench in a noble's bed, and soon rose to become Warlord and Blackjack Boss of Yssrgard.
 
He also won a duel against Sir Finlay Keswick to secure for himself the Lordship of Itor Boss, and dealt Finlay a serious wound.
 
 
 
Greedy as he was, Sean hatched a plan to "buy" a unique ring, the Ring of Ikalak from Aeslich, a commoner of Perleone. When she came to sell it, she was arrested by Sir Koloyok, who as Keeper of the Laws, tortured her to get the ring. However, she refused to reveal where she had hidden the ring, and Sir Koloyok summarily executed her, tired of her whining. For his actions, Sir Kabalus Snodaert of Perleone attempted assassination (twice) on Sir Koloyok.
 
 
 
Sean traveled North to Lorient to give up his religion "Aspects of the Flame", and on his way, spotted Lilith. The one he had arrested so long ago. She was carrying several precious items with her. Seizing the opportunity, Sean arrested Lilith, and Sir Koloyok supervised the torture and acquisition of her five unique items. Some items were destroyed by Sir Koloyok and Sir Sean, for they were useless in their eyes. This ignited the anger of Sir Carlos d'Artois, whose armor was turned into horseshoes, as well as the ire of Perleone's nobles.
 
 
 
Perleone then declared total war against Yssrgard, seeking compensation for each unique item lost or destroyed, and desiring the forced migration of Yssrgard away from the South. Whilst Yssrgard's realm council were working on a peace plan to compensate Perleone, King Marchusson's army had started attacking, looting and taking over the city of Xavax. Food was scarce, and thousands of peasants died of starvation. Perleone then took control of Xavax, likely, for the huge amount of gold it produced. 
 
  
Yssrgard's forces then strengthened their position in their capital of Itorunt, building up militia. Not able to attack Itorunt head on, Perleone then looted and turned Priotness rogue. They then went on to do the same to Ejarr Puutl - Yssrgard's bread basket. They wanted to starve the besieged city of Itorunt out. Thousands of peasants died through Perleone's actions.

Knowing that Yssrgard would be all but destroyed, and them along with the city, Sean and Koloyok fled by night, riding swiftly for the coastal city of Jariedma. Perleone's forces tried to pursue them, but the brothers in arms had embarked on a ship sailing Eastwards already.

Sean and Koloyok landed several days later on the coast near Fontan city, and joined the realm of Shadowdale. He won an election to become the Tormentor of Shadowdale. Time will only tell how they fare there.

Athalia

Killed by monsters at age 21 in Bohai (Dwilight), 10 honor, 7 prestige.

“ After searching the area for 2 hours, following trails and noises, you finally encounter a warband of large, intelligent, nasty-looking monsters. You notice that they have a leader, an alpha monster, a really big and ugly one, whatever you want to call it. You fight with everything you've got - but the monsters turn out too strong or too many for you. And then things start to go badly. You can not get away from them, and find yourself surrounded! You fight against the evil beasts, and then you face the big one. Its first bite crushes your shield as if it were made of light wood. Then it comes for you. You fight with everything you've got, but its teeth are as long as your sword and its hide is thicker than your armour. You can dodge most of its blows, but then it takes off your arm cleanly at the shoulder. Then you smell its stinky breath, and its mouth closes on you. It is over quickly, you barely feel how it chews you. Then darkness. You have been killed. Alone and outnumbered, you are dead.”
