Summary
Lionroar was a man shrouded in mystery. He was a sailor and a pirate who plied the waters of the Trade War, between the Free State of Brisdon and Scalmoore. He was known for wearing a helmet that resembled a lion, and his face was hardly ever seen. He was feared and respected by all who knew of him, and his name was whispered in hushed tones among sailors and merchants alike. He was a man of few words, but his actions spoke louder than any words could. He was a fierce warrior and a cunning strategist, who always seemed to be one step ahead of his enemies. He was said to be from the arid and desert-like country of Balidan, but little else was known about his past. He was a force to be reckoned with, and his legend lived on long after the Trade War ended.
