Alvertos Digby Pendelyn

Alvertos was born in The Imperial City. His father was a cousin of Penderyn nobles, ensuring Al an opportunity for a fine upbringing and education. But as he grew up, Al found the whole thing grating. He had a wild side, and frequently got into petty brawls or causing ruckus on the streets. His family sent him away to a naval academy to straighten him out, and as an adult his station landed him captain of his own (admittedly small) ship in a fleet of Leviathan Hunters. As captain he worked and fought alongside his crew, but he also took dangerous risks, always pushing his hunters further. His final voyage was on a trip to harvest from a colossal leviathan. When a ship was lost to the beast's ire, the fleet ordered retreat. But Alvertos ordered his ship to chase it further out to sea, beyond the shore's sight. Alone in the void and outmatched by the leviathan, most of his crew perished, and Alvertos was seriously injured. When his ship returned, his admiral stripped him of his rank and destroyed what remained of his vessel. His family disowned him and he now does what he can to make ends meet in Duskwall as hired muscle, a bodyguard, or a competitor in fighting pits. Al's last holding was the basement that The Crew now uses as a hideout.
