| November Family: Calvin • Ilsa |
Trusted with the family's company books at a fairly young age, Calvin November has always had a passion for the "behind the scenes, no glory" job of keeping the wheels greased and making sure things ran smoothly. After a brief stint in the military, Calvin returned his grandfather's saber to its place above the mantle and filled his scabbard with ink instead. Making a career shift to a Bureaucrat, Calvin devoted his life to the service of Alebad.
In recognition of his contributions, then Pontifex of Alebad Eugene II awarded Calvin his first political appointment: Count of Vir el Mari heights. This office was later transferred to Calvin's younger sister, Ilsa.
His years behind the Bureaucrat's desk taught Calvin that a whole lot can hinge on placing a little dot in the correct spot on a balance sheet. Recognizing this as an excellent opportunity to see a bit more of the countryside (as well as a fine way to help his realm's cause a bit), he changed careers again. The founder of the islands' first Order of the Doughnuts guild began wandering the Colonies, visiting various warehouses and granieries to "cook the books" of a few of Alebad's enemies.
Sadly, his desire to serve his realm turned out to be his downfall. While the details are sketchy, it appears that while teaching a seminar on "Trickle Up Economics" somewhere between Amonarir and Crifts, a squad of goons from Lukon burst in, grabbed Calvin and hauled him off to their capital.
The following morning's headlines in Alebad read of Calvin's deportation at the hands of Lukon's Arch Priestess, Faith.
No news of Calvin's fate is yet known.
