Carthon

Pioneer's Lieutenant

Early Life

Carthon was born into a military family in southern Myreglyne in 427 P.S.E. Her mother was part of the local guard in her hometown, while her father was a respected blacksmith who crafted weapons for the guards and Myreglyne's proper army. Both parents were on standby to join larger military operations if needed, and therefore sometimes needed to relocate. They raised Carthon to follow in their footsteps to take some sort of military career, giving her basic training in combat and smithing from a young age.
As she grew older, Carthon should particular interest and aptitude in combat, so her parents pushed for her to get some experience in the local guard. The sedentary lifestyle proved insufficient to stimulate Carthon however, as she grew bored of guarding the relatively safe and quiet regions of her home town. She expressed interest in adventuring, but this idea was quickly shot down by her parents, citing the discipline gained from sanctioned military work being far more important than rogueish adventuring. Not to be stifled, Carthon rebelled at the age of 21 and set out on her own, leaving a note for her parents explaining the need to forge her own path in the world.

Finding her place

After some wandering and some light mercenary work, she heard of Yenithmyr and the mercenaries of Farpoint. She made her way there and found the excitement of mercenary work in a wilder setting. Her old guard training was more ingrained in her than she thought however, as she began to miss some of the structure and discipline of her old days with her family. One day she was assigned a job at Pioneer's Stride where she caught the eye of the head of the guard Gortha. Carthon impressed Gortha with her skills dispatching some bandits, and then they got to talking. Carthon ended up taking a position as Gortha's lieutenant, which surprised her because of her young age, but she accepted and never looked back. She now relishes her station in Pioneer's Stride, training recuits and keeping watch of the local area, whilst heading up a handful of scouting missions herself.
