Zeth Almmore

Origin
Zeth was born into a very wealthy family of entrepreneurs, but his parents were assassinated when Zeth was very young. Zeth was taken into the criminal underworld and joined the Clan of Mercury, which was a group of the worlds top assassins. Zeth quickly shot up in their ranks because of his skill, and was believed to be the descendent of "Mercrio", the greatest assassin the world has ever seen, and the founder of the Clan of Mercury. On a mission to kill one of the worlds most influential leaders, Zeth came across an old book in the leader's library titled "The Legend of Mercrio". The Clan of Mercury had introduced him to this book before, but this one was different. This one was older, and had more pages. Into reading it, it had stories of Mercrio fighting monsters and other mythical creatures. The Legend of Mercrio wasn't real. The book ended with "One day Mercrio will return...." He abandoned his mission to confront an Ex-member of the Clan of Mercury. This man explained that the Clan of Mercury were the ones who killed his parents, and they knew Mercrio wasn't real. Zeth went on a murderous rampage, killing every last member of the Clan of Mercury, and taking on the name "Mercrio" to inflict fear into the public.

Rathnir
Not much is know about Mercrio. He was a trained assassin and came to the land of Rathnir in search of a better life. He originally joined the town of Zemlya but joined the upcoming nation of Almmore soon after as the Lord Marshal. He was a major part of Almmores roots as it was first starting, and even governed a town called Rito for a short period of time before giving up on it, but on December 2nd, 2021, something unexpected happened. Duke Blake Almmore I, the leader of Almmore, mysteriously vanished without a trace. After a few hours later the Grand Council of Almmore took it into their own hands to keep the Almmore alive. They elected Mercrio as their new leader since he was part of the nation the longest out of them and had some experience in governing the city of Rito.

When Almmore was faced with a dangerous threat, Mercrio made the decision to declare independence from Thalassii, thus becoming the King of Almmore, and revealing his identity as Zeth Ritonidas.
