History

Liam is a Kalashtar living in a farm who always wanted to study Magic. Once, her dad told him she could go to Ionguale as soon as she separates good and bad potatoes. Instead she went out with her friends. Heading to Nicodranas they decided to go fishing.   While fishing along the shore with her friends Jaxand Becka, she and her friends were abducted and found themselves unwilling crew members for the Longstraw Pirates. The Pirates taught them how to fight. Dual daggers were Liam's weapon of choice. During one of the pirate plunder, Liam found some magic scrolls and tomes from their looting and learned from them to become proficient at magic. Under the command of Captain Sigurd Snake Eyes, the captain of the Sea Ghost, Liam, and her friends were forced to plunder and kill merchant ships and smuggle good in and out of Tana's Empire.  

The cloven crystal war

late 1136 AD   The Cloven Crystals — ancient seals that bound the mighty Tromokratis — had fallen one by one. Destroyed or stolen by the Kraken King’s pirates, each loss brought his monstrous reign closer. Only one crystal remained, the final barrier to his dominion over the seas. It was embedded within Queen Morganyn herself, who stood as the last line of defense.   Desperate to break that final seal, the Kraken King rallied the Longstraw Pirates. Over twenty ships, crewed by hundreds of raiders, surged toward Coralia — the Triton capital — intent on tearing the last crystal from the queen’s body. Foreseeing the coming storm, Morganyn dispatched her warriors to meet the enemy at the surface. Within Coralia, the city’s defense fell to their Plasmoid allies.   As arcane fire and magical volleys rained from pirate mages, the sea boiled with war. But not every pirate served the Kraken King faithfully. A rogue ship — The Garrot — used the chaos to slip its own infiltrators into Coralia.   The battle raged for hours. Triton forces, hard-pressed on the surface, were forced to retreat and reinforce the palace, turning back Katarina’s assault from within. But their withdrawal allowed the Kraken King's pirates to dive beneath the waves, setting a new plan in motion. His mages gathered for a ritual — calling forth dragon turtles to shift the tide in his favor.   When news of this reached Queen Morganyn, she wavered. With no way to hold Coralia and no reinforcements in sight, she made a painful decision: she would flee, drawing the fight away from her people to buy them time.   Under cover of night, Morganyn, her advisors, and Wellan slipped from the palace. First disguised as drifting jellyfish, they then polymorphed into sharks to escape undetected. Their destination: The Garrot — the only ship that might still carry them to safety.
