He was told that his father was a famous pirate that has long since retired in the city. Determined to show everyone how good he is, he has taken up the fine art of piracy himself. Boris prefers to hire himself to merchants who are after a monopoly in their specific professions. Priding himself on his chivalry like manor, murder was never so pretty. Feeling an unexplained compelling to go to the Hullock Forest, he joins together with a few associates. Team killing is not something we need to encourage!

Even gods get horny! The woman never told her husband, so he assumed it was his child. Never wanting it, the mercenary did all he cold to discourage the boy from living. Torture was Jocul's father's specialty. Horrors aplenty could be told about the things Jocul was forced to endure during waking hours, only to go to sleep and relive it in his nightmares. At the age of 18, Jocul decided that life must get better for him. He escaped while performing the dip and swim for his father. A rather grueling exercise, in which he was told to swim to the bottom of the lake near the home and stay down until his father beat the water with a paddle. You can bet his father waited a hell of a long time. But his father did not count on his son learning to bring just the tip of his nose above water level. Jocul used this last ability to great effectiveness when he swam the length of the 200 yard lake and then ran for his freedom with his father none the wiser. As a matter of fact, Jocul's father believed he had finally broke the boy and killed him. Jocul has spent his years of freedom as an expert assassin in the area of Mulmaster, with his parents none the wiser. He does hope one day to return to his father and do wondrous things with a pair of daggers. Unfortunately that must wait, because he is needed by his lord of worship in the ancient forest of a resting Dragon.
