Egyedul

Early Life
Egyedul Sai'Mollock, was born in Shaloma, a client state of the Imperial Archonate of Viodoxa. At this time, tension was brewing within the nation, and war was only an inch away. Egyedul was dirt poor, and had no intent of getting out of his poverty and debt honorably. So he took to the life of a thief, pettily stealing from his own country-men in the hopes of striking riches. Egyedul did happen to find riches, as one day he stumbled upon the chest of a miner, having a reasonable portion of iron. He wasted no time in selling it. He looked at his meagre fortune and thought of how to spend it. His mind went to the dream he had of creating a land of his own, where no one would be left on the streets, a place that would bask all that entered it in prosperity. he immediately went to a street vendor and spent all his money on banner materials. After foolishly spending his stolen money on goods that he would not benefit from, he was mugged on the street which he would regularly try to pounce on unsuspecting travelers. The thief, being robbed by his own kind. Egyedul, now robbed of his possessions and his dreams, sulked back to his hometown. "Curse this backwater country he thought" Egyedul gathered what little he had left in his house, and left to live as a hermit in the wilderness.

Istanboulder
A year later, as more and more of the wilderness was claimed by great political powers, he decided it was time to come out of hiding. He couldn't return to his homeland, as he might be shunned, and officially exiled. Egyedul traveled for two weeks, until stumbling upon the city of Istanboulder. Egyedul marveled at the city and took a walk around. He came to the decision that this was where he would live. Istanboulder wasn't a major power in Rathnir, unlike the Archonate that he had previously lived under ; but Egyedul took great admiration for the nation, which to him he believed still had honor, and wasn't wrapped up in international politics. Two qualities which he thought to be rare. "This is where I'll live." Egyedul thought to himself.

After squatting in an abandoned house for a few days Egyedul was approached by the Leader of Istanboulder, and he was offered citizenship. Almost immediately after he gained citizenship, Egyedul was preparing to search some houses for valuables, when he was given a full set of diamond armor. After receiving the gift, he had second thoughts on ransacking houses and instead looked for work.

Egyedul's first major act as a citizen of Istanboulder was tearing down the old slums, west of the city. The act was frowned upon by many inhabitants of the city, but Egyedul did not stop, as he had the permissions to do so. He did decide to leave the old prison building of the slums up, and have it restored. An act that would boost his popularity with the masses and one that would happen to get him more money. After destroying most of the slums, he used the money this time, on materials to build the Deak Ferenc, one of the most popular bar and casinos in Istanboulder. He would then use profits, generated from the Deak Ferenc to build a legal office in the city square.

The Great Ale Sandal
Over time, business in the Deak Ferenc began to decline, with only three regular customers at that point. Egyedul was thinking of ways he could bolster popularity for his bar, and it came to him: He needed more variety. Egyedul sent out messages, telling new players that he was buying alcohol, and that he would pay handsomely for it. Immediately several messages were sent to him, offering to do business. As he met up with his ignorant clients, he realized how much of a profits he could be making. One client in particular, offered his favorite deal. 32 bottles of assorted alcohol, for the grand total of two iron ingots. After the day was over, Egyedul possessed around 228 bottles worth of alcohols, most of it being ale. He had about 20 bottles of vodka, 70 bottles of ale, 10 bottles of red wine, 28 bottles of scotch whisky, and the rest consisted of many types of rum, beer, and mead. In the end, almost all of it was stolen. Most of his clients even told him which taverns and bars from which the alcohol was stolen. Egyedul concluded, that even if he sold the alcohol at incredibly low prices, he would be making a little over 90% profits.
