Asuvar, the Pirate King

Having left the Highpeaks of Astrievil out of wanderlust resulted in incomplete teachings of the bladesinger. Having no real interests with the exception of combat and sailing he became increasingly intrigued in "mercantile trades" and how they formed their empires. Asuvar had eventually met with the Whitehawks, a band of mercenaries whom raided the large trading ports of the east. Whilst they had raided largely unhindered, eventually they were met with a counter-attack. The Whitehawk's ships were scorched by descending orbs of flame. Few ships escaped, the leading ship being towed ashore, the crew imprisoned. The crew psychically tortured until finally revealing the instigator and payer. After the release the crew dissolved and Asuvar was left with a crewless ship, he renamed it and began his mercenary empire that day.
