Before Rathnir
Ulifer was born in an archipelago south of the continent of Rathnir. In his homeland piracy is accepted and many of his people feel the sea calling to them. From a young age his dream was to become a seadog and chase glory and fortune under the black flag. When he became a man he decided to sail with the first crew he could find, and he did so. However the competition was a lot and the loot was scarce. That's when he decided to sail up north to the continent of Rathnir. He heard tales about big royal castles filled with gold and silver, that were waiting for a true pirate to take them. He stole a small sloop and after weeks he arrived at the sea between Cymru and Sørligste, at the south of Rathnir.

First Settlement
The first land he step foot on was a small isle between Cymru and Sørligste that unbeknownst to him belonged to the Admiralty of Greenland. Soon after he started setting up a small pirate settlement, he was found by the leader of Greenland Swiggan McSpiegel and after pressure from Imperial Archonate of Viodoxa he was forced to leave the isle.

Second settlement and integration in Viodoxa
He then sailed a bit to the east and discovered an uncharted cay which he called Rapier Cay, this small sail trip to the east gave him his nickname Three Paces East. After discussions he struck a deal with the Archon Hazel McSpiegel of the Imperial Archonate of Viodoxa and Lord Astronomus of the Astronian Union and his pirate settlement became an overseas territory of the Astronian Union. He had finally raised the jolly roger in Rathnir but as he would later find he wasn't the only pirate in this world.

Building in the region
For the meantime he was slowly integrating to this new "landweller" life and was helping his wild for the time region develop. His most notable accomplishments were the removal of all ruins and burned trees from the region and the replantation of natural forests. He was also tasked by the Head Architect Heinrich val Oberstein to take down the abandoned town of Alberket and an old NPC village nearby. A lot of terraforming was also done especially in the south of the region where the farming town of Azucena was to be built. Another feat is shaping up Pimeltum, another abandoned town in the region. In his final days he helped the Head Architect make the road system of the region and opened the first ever pub in the Astronian Union, the Sea Dog's Tavern.

Participation in wars
Apart from helping his region develop, he also took part in 2 battles representing the Imperial Archonate of Viodoxa :

Firstly he took part in the Allium-Coalition War at the Battle of New Dorasterrock where he lost his gear near Carthya City.

And he also took part in the battle at New Volotra fighting as a Viodoxan volunteer under the banner of The Constitutional Monarchy of Eisenland and under Archon loic. The day before the battle he also went in a small scouting mission that was organised by loic where he helped set up a bomb that would help take out the walls of New Volotra. Sadly though the bomb was never used in the battle.

However, while in the New Volotra he met the pirates of The Free States of Tortuga and soon realised he wasn't the only sea dog in Rathnir...

Joining Tortuga
Ever since he learned of the existence of a pirate town such as Tortuga he was eager to meet the Pirate Lord sexy and join his crew. He soon did meet him and grew to respect his presence and shared loved for loot and plunder. He immediately negotiated with Archon loic and very quickly he was given permission to integrate Rapier Cay into The Free States of Tortuga. Then soon after a small earthquake happened in the sea between cymru and Sørligste and new land rose in the cay which soon became an atoll. With the island's change came a new name as well, Cursewater Atoll which became the southernmost pirate port of Tortuga.

Building in Tortuga Isle
Soon after his integration in The Free States of Tortuga, he was accepted into the Pirate Lord's crew and joined Tortuga Isle, the capital of all the pirate in Rathnir.

He immediately started building upon his arrival on the island. He is responsible for terraforming the island, making it green and planting grass as well as several palm trees. The expansion of the island's road system also came as well as several new houses, a watchtower, a jolly roger wall sculpture as well as his personal caverns which became his home in Tortuga.

Discovery of Flintlock Cove
One day while roaming around the continent he found an uncharted island between Haven and Sørligste which soon became a Tortugan pirate port by the name Flintlock Cove.

Creation of the Soumerian Road System
After the Pirate Lord saw his work on the island, he gave him permission to head to the Tortugan Region of Soumere and create a road system from Braavos to Lumaire. The road was a succes and it connected all the cities of the region, thus uniting them even more with each other. Captain Lindorn of The Grand City of Tolomar thanked him for his effort.

The original plan was to make a road that would pass all of Tortugan owned Sørligste from soumere all the way to frostmarch. However this was cut short after Tortuga decided to liberate several parts of the continent and many independent nations were created.

Founding of Pyylandia
Together with some trusted mateys he decided to create the tortugan vassal state of Pyylandia which is located in the southern borders of Sørligste between Frostmarch and Not Venice.

Joining the Dread Fleet
After several adventures and travels with the Pirate Lord, Ulifer decided to join his Dread Fleet. More on that in a future update...
