He grew up watching the ships travel in and out of the city, and dreamed of sailing out with them to make a name for himself. Once he came of age, he signed on as a deckhand for a small merchant ship, the Seaspray. As luck would have it, his ship was attacked by pirates on his first voyage. They boarded the Seaspray and a fight broke out. During the ensuing chaos, Zoraster grabbed a sword from a fallen pirate, and charged into battle with the rest of the crew, thus beginning a life-long tradition of doing things without considering the consequences.

So with the recommendation of the Seaspray's former captain, who had already seen his courage (if not skill) in battle, he secured a position on a privateer that guarded larger merchant ships.Its name was Barracuda. He spent the next two years of his life on the Barracuda, learning the ways of the sea and the sword, occassionaly fighting off pirates, and generally having a good time. This came to an end one fateful night when a trio of unknown ships came over the horizon, and made a beeline for Barracuda's current charge. The three pirate ships managed to encircle Barracuda and her charge, and proceeded to board both ships. The fighting on Barracuda was intense, but Zoraster's skill with the rapier had greatly improved, and he soon was one of the last men standing on the ship. Then he saw the captain of the pirate vessel -- a halfling wearing bright red clothing, and the brightest chain shirt he had ever seen. He immediately recognized a kindred spirit. He charged across the deck and challenged the pirate captain to a duel. The captain laughed and asked if he wanted to take over the pirate ship. To which he replied "If killing you means I have to command these knaves, then I'll do it." The pirate captain laughed again, and the battle was joined. Zoraster immediately realized he was outclassed, and was forced to take a defensive stance just to stay alive. As the battle continued, the rest of Barracuda's crew was subdued, and the pirates gathered around to watch the fight. So there was quite an audience when the pirate captain suddenly slipped in some of the blood that was splattered across the deck and fell onto </p><p>Zoraster's rapier.</p><p></p><p>There was a stunned silence as Zoraster looked at the assembled pirates. "So, I'm the captain now?" he said. Then one of pirates smiled at him and said "Yup, and this is a mutiny. But don't worry, since you're the captain we'll take you back to land and hang you instead of just slitting your throat." Zoraster charged at the grinning pirate, but was quickly subdued and tied up by his many compatriots. They tossed him and the old captain's body into the captain's cabin, laughing at the irony. Zoraster's luck continued to hold though, as he wriggled free of the ropes and searched the cabin. He found a hidden compartment that contained several large gems and two odd feathers, which he recognized from his last day on the Seaspray years ago. Taking them and the captain's armor, he squeezed through the captain's small window and fell into ocean. He stayed there treading water in the ship's wake until it was out of sight, then activated one of the tokens, and sailed back to Freeport just like he had two years ago. </p><p></p><p>Once he was back in Freeport, Zoraster promptly sold the gems used the money to buy himself the finest suite of weaponry he could find. He then spent the next several months living the high life traveling between the city's inns, gossiping about adventure on the high seas, and making sure everyone noticed his new armor. However, his money has now just about run out, and he's looking for work again. Hopefully this time he won't have to ride back to Freeport in a magical boat after his ship sinks and most of the crew dies, but he has a boat handy just in case.</p></blockquote><p></p>
