Notes[edit]
Caraíbos was born into an Amari family of traveling artists. From early on, he was aware of the prejudice and discrimination his people suffered and would always try to fight back, but his father, Yaros, and his elder brother, Lailo, contained his fury. As a teenager, Caraíbos realized his good looks could offset the Amari stigma and the young man took advantage of that. Still, his resentment festered and he longed for justice. When Caraíbos was 17, during a summer festival in the Caroan countryside, his family was targeted by local bullies and verbally abused. Yaros tried to defuse the situation, but the men beat him up. Caraíbos rushed to defend his father, but Yaros stayed his son’s hand once again. Satisfied, the bullies left, but Caraíbos was mad with Yaros and Lailo and they had a terrible row. Caraíbos left his family that night and became a solitary entertainer, traveling between small towns outside Caros to ply his art. A year later, he met a mercenary band, the Brotherhood of Blades, and stuck along, acting as the group’s chronicler. He learned to fight with them and discovered a talent for duels. After two years, the band accepted a contract in a dispute between two Caroan city-states. Not keen to return to a country that caused him so much pain, Caraíbos parted way with the Brotherhood. He kept on traveling, dividing his time between performing and romancing rich widows and unhappy wives. Eventually, he reached Tarn and became involved in a skirmish between Eskarn malcontents and House Thorn’s soldiers in a roadside inn near Narcroft. Caraíbos was actually helping the Eskarn, but had to fight the latter when they tried to kill the inn’s servants. His heroics reached the ear of Lady Katerine Thorn, who recruited the Amari as a retainer.
