That sounds like what someone on the official lore forums said.
Except theirs was "he did it"
Except theirs was "he did it"
Quote:He once was known by the name Sthalmann and was the right-hand man of the Admiral back when they were still just the strongest pirates, unlike nowadays.
But his lust for power took over and he kind of sacrificed his crew to have them fight an unneccessary skirmish with the Sahagin so he could (probably murder the Admiral, although it's just known that he was killed at a convenient time) get his hands on an artifact of unlimited power. In the end he loses both the artifact AND his crew and and 10 years later, when he first encounters the player, he is merely a pitiful drunkard who has trouble paying his debts and brooding over the loss of his crew. He kind of helps the player a few times, but still...xD
Quote:This is correct. He also forms a 2 man crew with the player early in the storyline and Y'shtola was the one who contested him when he attempted to claim the artifact. In the end it was stolen by a Ascian in the shape of a Elezen man. Pretty sure said object appears in 2.0 as well. I recall seeing a horn in a similar shape make an appearance in the story.
