Attire

Early History

Kasto really has no idea who his parents are. His earliest memory is of waking up on the beaches of M'Riss, where he spent many of his youngest years. His love for the sea and desire to see beyond the volcanic rock spurred him to join various crews departing from the Wharf's End. It was while serving with one of these crews that he first crossed paths with the Red Sash Pirates. He was captured and taken aboard one of their vessels as a personal slave to the captain.

The details of his escape are unknown but somehow he returns to the island of M'Riss with a vessel of his own. The weather-beaten schooner was used for a few years to haul supplies for the Rissans and also as a looting vessel after naval battles. He began picking up crews in Hara'jaal which landed him in some trouble with the pirate clans and he quickly abandoned this practice, choosing to stick with his fellow Rissan sailors.

Having amassed a deal of wealth, Kasto was left with what to do with it all. He was able to persuade the Administrator of Orders of his honest business tactics and commitment to execellence which lead to him being given an exciting opportunity, the chance to re-open the Tavern Troupe Performing Order.

His schooner has not been seen at the standard ports, and he now claims a crew position as Ship's Mate aboard the Shadowed Charger.

A Pirates Life

As he became a more frequent figure around Zoluren, a mysterious book appeared on the shelves of the local library. Though it did not name him outright, the characters and places depicted were obviously taken from his past. The validity of the claims presented here have never been fully verified. Witness claim that Kasto himself destroys these books on sight and is currently paying handsomely for any copies remaining.
