The Story of Rudopho Milano

Rudolpho Milano is the illegitimate son of an orc prostitute of Sasserine and a human pirate. Rudoplho’s mother always told him that his father was a handsome pirate named Antonio from a land far away. The last time Rudolpho’s mother saw Antonio, is when he named little baby Rudolpho and left his signet ring for him. With the signet ring, Antonio promised, Rudolpho would have no problems finding employment on a pirate crew. Rudolpho grew up faster than the human children in the Sunrise District and sure enough, when Rudolpho turned thirteen, he was hired on as a crewman on a pirate ship. Rudolpho found that although he was an excellent swimmer, he lacked the patience to develop all of the skills that a pirate needs. Rudolpho just loved to kill. Given his volatile nature, it was not long before the pirates unburdened themselves of Rudolpho by tossing him overboard with only a raft. Rudolpho paddled for days before reaching an uninhabited island. After living in the wild for a couple of months to get his strength back up, Rudolpho began to swim the miles of water separating the many small islands in the area. Finally Rudolpho made his way back to civilization. It took Rudolpho two more years of stowing away and laboring on ships for him to make his way home to Sasserine. In that time he grew stronger, wilder, and more deadly with a falchion. Rudolpho tried to find work as a bodyguard or mercenary but so far, nothing has panned out. Perhaps life with an adventuring crew will prove more lucrative.
