Personal history

Fulmen Scintilla, a half-elf sorcerer of noble birth, was born into a legacy of power and influence. His family, the Scintilla dynasty, had risen to prominence through a pact with a powerful blue dragon, granting them immense magical and political clout. Despite his privileged upbringing, Fulmen harbored a deep dissatisfaction with the gilded cage of his existence. He yearned for adventure, for the thrill of the unknown, and for a chance to prove himself beyond the confines of his noble station.
 
Fulmen's path to adventure has not been without its challenges. His family, fearing the loss of their power and influence, have tried to keep him confined within the walls of their opulent manor. They sent him to prestigious academies, hoping to mold him into a skilled but obedient servant of the Fulmen family. However, Fulmen's rebellious spirit refused to be tamed. He chafed against the rigid expectations of his family and teachers, yearning for a life of his own choosing.
 
One fateful night, Fulmen overheard a conversation between his parents and the blue dragon they served. The dragon, growing weary of the Scintilla's reliance on his power, threatened to withdraw his support if they failed to produce a sorcerer capable of mastering the ancient ritual of Elemental Ascension. This revelation sparked a fire of determination within Fulmen. He will not let his family's legacy be squandered, nor will he remain a pawn in the dragon's game.
 
With a newfound sense of purpose, Fulmen embarked on a daring escape from his manor. He stole a magical artifact from his parents' vault, a powerful crystal imbued with the essence of the dragon's power. This artifact is essential to unlocking the secrets of Elemental Ascension and proving his worth to the world.
 
Later, Fulmen was a Captain in the Roughjackets. 
 
"I had a small band of men at my disposal and i was charged with holding Shadow Ridge against the enemy. The ridge isnt much more than a natural stony bridge over a raging river, but it was strategically important, hence my orders to hold it against any enemy forces that may try to sneak in. It wasnt a large pass and it was assumed that only small war parties would attempt to cross via that pass. how wrong we were.
My scouts had observed a massive force approaching the ridge and i imediatly dispatched riders to attempt to find reenforcemtns. for 5 days we watched the hoard approach. for five days we waited for reenforcements and for 5 days we were dissapointed, terror growing as each sun set.
 
at the end of the 5th day, as the sun went down and darkness crept over the land, i knew that no more men would arrive in time to save us. I made a decision that night that will forever haunt me. In the inky black of night, i wrapped my cloak around me like a shawl and crept passed my own sentries, ashamed of the absurditiy of my plan. I sneaked towards the enemy camp and hailed their gurads, identifiying myself as Lord Scintilla, a Captain in the Roughjackets, and i asked for Parley. i expected that they would honour the old ways and grant me an audience with their commanding officer. i was a fool. I remember the jeers of the guards, i remember the stillness of the air, and then i remember blackness.
 
I woke up bound, fulman removes shirt and shows a mess of ragged white hot scars crossing his back, shirtless as red hot pain ripped through my back, they whipped me for hours. when they were finsihed, they took me to a vantage point overlooking the pass, and the real torture began. I watched as the enemy attacked my hopelessly outnumbered men, it was a slaughter and very few survuved.
 
I spent the remainder of the war as a PoW in the work camps, until it was over and my family finaly secured my release."

The half-elf noble was privileged to attend the finest academic institutions in the expanse, however beyond gaining a basic understanding of the subjects taught, he did not apply himself and finished with a lesser education than his parents would have hoped.

Employment

The Scintilla family own and operate the Scintilla shipping concern, still a trusted name for those wishing to move goods or people across the expanse, whilst keeping them safe from Varian's wild storms.
