Biography

The story of Falcon begins incredibly early. Niut, his uncle, was at odds with his parents Jorge and Maria Fenix. Shortly after they where wed, Niut slew Jorge over a disagreement about how to tie a Monkey’s Foot and he died before Falcon was even born. When Falcon was 5 years old a cholera epidemic took his mother’s life and Falcon and his brother Renaldo where left in the care of Niut whom in a fit of rage slew Renaldo and sold Falcon into servitude. After Niut killed his brother Renaldo, Falcon had sworn he would avenge both his brother and father, so once of age he ran away and found himself in Cairo working as ship hand, his goal to earn enough money to hunt down his uncle. As the years went by he had many battles with Niut. Falcon was once on the verge of killing Niut; until his mother Maria, Niut’s sister, stopped him.

The battle wasn't over yet, for over twenty years fighting and challenges ensued. One day they met up on the shores of The Isle of Lost Grace. Falcon and Niut then challenged each other to a boat race, where they each raced in a boat made of stone. Falcon and Niut agreed, and the race started. But Falcon had a secret weapon: his boat was made of wood, not stone. Niut's boat, being made of heavy stone, sank, but Falcon's didn't. Falcon then won the race, and Niut went into a rage. A viscous and heated battle ensued wherein Falcon slew Niut. Not far away while on shore leave Daphne Tart n' Sweet of The Rising heard the commotion and came to find the source, coming upon Falcon. Although Niut had been slain, he had injured Falcon’s eye and placed a wound upon his chest so Daphne sought help and brought him to The Harbour.

Falcon’s wounds where great and many they ran deep but as he healed the crews of Ships of the Fleet would stop by and help care for him. Once recovered Falcon went to work for Harbourmaster Kaushunn where he labored for a year in The Harbour in payment for all that they had done to aide him. Then one day Falcon heard a rumor that Niut still lived! He cast his eyes out to sea and saw the magnificent fleet arrayed in all their color and glory. Off to one side was The Sun God, the flagship of the Rogues, swaying slightly at anchor in Splendor.

Falcon stood there looking at the grand ship as he pondered the parallels between his life and that of the great Egyptian God Horus. Falcon was suddenly startled from behind by the voice of Commodore Amon, ”She’s the finest ship you know”. He wasn’t asking a question. He was merely stating it as fact. “I have been watching you work on these docks for some time now and like what I see. That’s my ship there.” He cocked his head in the direction of The Sun God, “If you can be on her by 4 bells tomorrow morning see my First Mate Stalkie McGroper and Fin my Quartermaster, I believe I saw a vacancy open the other day.”

Thus is how Falcon joined the crew of The Sun God where he serves until this day
