Grey was born the son of an accomplished soldier of the Waespland Army. His father Riven Solho was a Colonel in the army, a master of the bastard sword. He mother Tria was nurse/priestess at a local temple. They lived in a big house in the capital of Waespland, Waspe.
Ever since Grey was a child his father taught him the art of weapons armor, and battle. They trained together; Grey became a very fit and handsome young man. As a child he attended the very best schools and shown to be an able pupil. He had a handful of friends and was well liked by most people.
Around the time he was 20, Grey met the girl of his dreams, a beautiful young lady named Crystal. She also like Grey very much and was well liked by his family. He was also well liked by her family as well.
It was the same year that Grey (21) joined the Waespland Army. He was sent off to train with the other new recruits a little bit outside of Waspe. He was a very good combatant, among the best in the whole academy. It was in 2nd year of training he found the perfect weapon for him, the whip. He could do wonders with it. Even though the military instructors thought it was a waste of a weapon to master, even they saw Grey had amazing skill with it, and applauded his many sparring victories.
It was also in this year that he met a new recruit. This new Recruit would become his lifelong rival and source of pain. It was Tren Stonur, a son of a rich and powerful noble. Their personalities clashed violently. Worst part for Grey was that whenever they fought, Tren almost always one, and most of the time by some cowardly tactic…
Well one day in his third and final year of training, Grey defeated Tren in front of the whole academy. This left Tren humiliated, and he instantly sought revenge. He used his father’s position of power to accomplish this bloody and violently.
Meanwhile Grey’s father was sent off to the desert to command an exploration of the hostile deserts in the southeast. He platoon was broken up and he hasn’t been heard from.
Tren had The Solho branded as Heretics and Conspirators against the Crown. Tren was able to forge many fake documents showing of there minor, but still illegal acts against the royal family.
The soldiers came and burned Grey’s house down, they hung his mother and raped and killed his younger sister Annabelle. The house stood blacken and burned, a warning to any who would oppose the crown (or the Stonur family in that case…).
Grey was tied up and was to be executed in from of the whole city in the royal courtyard. As he was dragged through the streets people hit him with sticks, vegetables, cursing and laughing at him the whole way. His girlfriend who he once loved even smacks him while she cries to herself forever loving such an evil man.
But as they turn a corner Grey is hit with a stone…this stone though cuts the ropes on the cart that his is bound to. He frees himself quickly and quietly. In a flash he uses the rope as a whip against those who imprisoned him. “The slave can turn the whip on the master…remember that!” He shouts to the half-conscious guards on the floor.
Grey runs through the crowd and out of the city very quickly. He heads north to a snowy village between a mountain range. Once there Grey comes in contact with a very friendly Elven weapon smith and Wizard. He tells him his story, and agrees to help the Elf with a few minor tasks, and in Return the Elf equips him with a custom whip, and Elven chain mail.
Grey thanks the wizard and travels slightly father north to the capital of these snowy lands. He signs up as a guard, hoping to let time clear his name. He is recovering from the horror of the past when he receives the news that In the south a girl named Crystal (his girlfriend) was publicly executed as an attempt to draw a heretic back to the lands to be properly taken care of.
Grey breaks down after reading this news and quits his job as a guard uncertain of what to do and what is safe. He has also been hearing rumors that Tren Stonur has become a powerful general in the army and has a lot of influence on the king.
Grey decides it may be wise to find his father…Riven Solho who disappeared in the desert two years ago…If Grey knew his father the old man was in no way dead. With a strong feeling of hate and pain he sets off, hoping to do many things thought of as impossible.
