Mester Walterson

Mester Walterson-Di Italian't is a Soumerian-Tortugan from the countryside of Sorligste, and currently commandeers the army of Serenus, and has risen through the ranks in other countries such as Tortuga and Daelyria. While who his parents are is unknown as it believed they left for the continent of Neiden after Mester's birth, He was adopted by the pirate captain Warwick Walterson of Tortuga, and has remained apart of Warwick's family ever since.

Appearance and Personality
Mester is relatively average height for a Sorligste native, around 2m tall, and has a rather light complexion for a Tortugan, likely from not living in near the coast, where a diet of fish is most common. He sports a scar from a deep arrow wound in his left forearm which he got in the battle of Relmont, as well as smaller sword scars above his brow which he sustained over the course of several wars he fought in. Most of these are faded away now though. He is clean shaven and usually wears alot of darker clothes, from blacks, navy blue, brown and occasionally green and red. He is most often wearing a long, rather expensive navy blue coat with gold trim on at the wrists and lining of the coat, coupled with a fancy pirate hat he was gifted by his father. To contrast this, he usually wears black pants and soft, black leather boots. He usually wears an inner dark blue inner lining or just a white buttoned shirt beneath his coat. In the slightly cooler climate of the sorligste countryside, Mester wears similar clothes, but opts for a brown coat that is insulated with fur. he also wears brown pants with it as well. no matter the climate though, he always carries his sword on his right hip, and because he is left handed, he can easily pull his sword out when a fight arises. At sea and when crossing land, he is known for a similar outfit, except his coat and hat are jet black, and he sports a crimson red bandana.

Mester is a rather charsmatic person, as well having a big personality, always associating himself with higher class and wealthy people. Having a very large fortune himself, he is known for spending lots of money on things he doesn't exactly need, having very fine and expensive clothes, and not considering a budget on large scale projects. That being said, he is known to give out money too; funding town development and building projects are just some of the ways Mester gives out his money. Strongly being apart of a noble-life culture, Mester always chases new titles to extend his already impressive list of titles. Along with this, he is apart of several high class groups, mainly the Brotherhood of the Clock, being the self-proclaimed "CEO of Time." He is also very interested in business too; owning several businesses that cater to Rathnir. Anyway the money can come in, he has at least tried, using many different ways to make his fortune. He used to be known for being a high roller, placing absurdly high bets and almost always winning. Like most aristocrats, Mester has time; lots of it, and from that he has learned many different skills. He is handy with a sword and shield, and often trains combat and jousting in his northern home of Daelyria. Other pastimes of his include astronomy, being one of few astronomers to chart the entire southern night sky, as well as ice hockey, the most popular sport in Tortuga. He has little issue with drinking and has had good physical health throughout his life, and is mentally of a stable mind.

Early Life
While Details on Mester's first years are blurry from what he remembers, he was born somewhere around the swamps of central Sorligste, where Mester was found on a patrol by the local patrician of the region, from there he was taken to northern coastal town of Sentinel Coast. Growing up, he learned to survive off of fishing, using his fishing equipment to buy himself a pickaxe from the markets of Not Venice; where he slaved in the mines to find resources to sell for money.

Eventually, a golden opportunity arose. On a normal day in sentinel, a man of seemingly high status, who Mester would come to know as JCaldas Di Italian't, the leader of Serenus. As they talked, Mester learned more of the great capital of the country to the south, Not Venice. eventually, Mester asked Jcaldas if he could see the town. After he obliged, Mester went with him, and was amazed at what he saw. By the end of the tour, he had his mind set; Mester was going to move to Not Venice.

Life in Not Venice was relatively the same; he continued to mine and make money, and explored the many things Not Venice had to offer. But eventually, the list of things to do ran out. With little do, Mester set his sights to a new adventure; reviving a town. After contacting Jcaldas about this, Mester found out about the town of Mediolanum, a town to the east that had fallen into a state of inactivity and had been mostly left alone for many years. While working at first was promising, eventually Mester gave up and progress halted, leading to Mester (with the advisory of the government) to give the town to other, more promising people.

Adventures in Tortuga
It was around the time that Mester first moved from Not Venice to Mediolanum that Mester first adventured the rest of the vast country he lived in. After being invited to the capital of Tortuga, Tortuga isle, with fellow Serenus citizens for a party. At this humble party is where Mester would meet people that eventually would shape his life later on down the line, including Warwick Walterson, his eventual adoptive father.

Not only did Mester explore north Tortuga, but he explored other parts of his home continent, including the frozen tundras of Frostmarch and The Featherean Federation, as well as the western parts of continent, including Greatwhite Isles, one of the only other sovereign countries on the country at the time.

During his travels, Mester learned of Lorent, Tortuga’s number one enemy. He learned of the evils they had committed, viewing them as uneducated swine, as well the vampiric peoples as below him. Because of these reasons, he made it is vow to rid his beloved continent of Sorligste of the Lorent.

With his increasing patriotism towards Tortuga, factored with his deep hate for Lorent, when Mester heard of Tortuga’s “all or nothing” war against Lorent, Mester immediately got prepared to fight, ready to fight along side his Tortugan brothers to conquer Lorent. When the day of the battle came around, hopes were looking high. Until the battle began. As Me ster saw his countrymen being slaughtered beside him, and the enemies closing in from all sides, in a last ditch effort to survive, Mester dove from the cliffs of Relmont, shutting his eyes, waiting for pain he would feel before dying. But miraculously, none came. He had narrowly made it into the water.

With the loss against Lorent, Mester felt lost, as if he had no objective to do with Tortuga now in shambles.

New Adventures
Around when Tortuga fell was when Mester first moved to a different country; that country being Lunari Empire (Lunaris). He stayed little there, moving back to Sorligste often to help out his now independent home-country of Soumere-Serenus, but enjoyed his time there. It was in Lunaris where Mester first became interested in the prospects of wealth.

His second adventure to another country came in Daelyria, a country he had many friends in who had helped fight with him in many battles before, such as high prince Dusk Synderys and the Thareax warlord Ivan, among many others. It turned out to be a good discission, him establishing many friends in the northern reaches of the world, somewhere his main attentions did not mainly lie. Mester has stayed in Daelyria ever since. Ironically, Mester reunited with Lunaris with their vassalizing of Daelyria.

Life Under Lorent and the Horde
Mester was still living in Lunaris when news of war in Serenus came to him. The people who were warring him were those who had been his greatest enemy; Lorent. It was looking grim for Serenus, with little gear or support against an established empire with many soldiers. So Serenus chose the option that led to the least bloodshed; annexation into Lorent.

Mester hated life under Lorent at first, especially with Serenus losing lots of its territory because of it. Eventually though, he came to terms with it, turning his attention to building up the ancient fortress city of Time Temple. It was also around this time that Mester was handed control of Serenus's army, which was previously led by the Thareax warlord Ivan, a good friend of Mester who he often fought with as a mercenary, fighting along side him battles such the third and fourth battles of New Dorassterock and the 2 battles against the Voskemarch Rebellion.

Eventually, with a weakening Lorent that seemed to be losing stability, Serenus was offered a new, unique opportunity by the horde, their true overlords; autonomy as a region inside of the Horde.

Mester worked extra hard for his new overlords, knowing not producing goods would lead to Serenus being forced to join Lorent once again. With wars on almost every front of the horde, war goods were at an all time high. Little would change over time, besides the indepence from the Horde and immediate collapse of Lorent around him.

The horde was rapidly losing territories, many regions losing hope in it's ability to be the ultimate power it had always been. One of these regions was Tortuga, Serenus's prior overlord. Mester saw first hand how they were slowly reuniting once more, so it came to no surprise to him when he heard Serenus and leaving the Horde with Tortuga and reuniting with them once more.

Current Day
Currently Mester still runs the Serenus military, using his brewing skills he learned from the expert brewers of Lunaris (specifically Tsukikage) to make potions for the country and to sell for money. He is also reunited with his town of Mediolanum, which many people have came to for its large underground farming complex. He has also been appointed to architect and builder of Time Temple once more.
