Born in Sutica to a his father, Lurkic Flameforge II, a mediocre smith that had made his living making small metal parts for the ships of Sutica. Ezekial’s mother had died while giving birth to what would be Ezekial’s sister who passed as well during the process. This led Lurkic Flameforge to a life of regret and sorrow. The Flameforge name was once an iconic name in Arcas known for their exemplary work on the weapons during the founding of the coastal city. Ezekial Flameforge lived the life of a noble during his childhood as his family name alone got him access to premier education and training within the city. Lurkic Flameforge wanted his son to be renew the family name and take up the mantle of being the finest smith within the city. Ezekial on the other hand hated smithing. Ezekial while being extremely talented, was drilled into by his father at a young age that if he wasn’t the best at this craft then he would have no purpose. Ezekial eventually finished schooling and his apprentice work with the local smiths and thought that his life of confinement within the walls of Sutica would soon be over. The constant belittling from his father about his work and the teachings of Canonism, that would do nothing but bore him to no end. When he made it home one evening he found that city guards were dragging his father from the house. He would be told that his father, Lurkic, had amassed a lump sum of debts to the city by not paying taxes. Ezekial’s father screamed and kicked as he was dragged out the door but Ezekial felt no emotion. Ezekial asked the city treasury and how much would be needed to pay off the debt and the city guards only answer was the house that he lived in. As the only way of payment for the debt he accepted as his father had no money and would serve a shorter jail sentence. This would come to be meaningless as his father would die to illness in jail.

After the death of his father, Ezekial almost didn’t feel welcomed into the city. As a high elf he was told to go to the city of Halenor and join the rest of his kin. He hadn’t met any of his brothers as he lived with his mother for most of his childhood. She died but a few months after Lurkic as she had a bad heart. Ezekial decided to head to the high elf city looking for a new life, though as a half elf he didn’t know how he would be accepted. He left but a week after the incident. He had many adventures on the way, such as meeting other elfs flocking to Irrinor to help protect their country against the Oren Empire. Though after reading the news about how it happened, he realized how silly it was. He decided to go join the high elves again instead and the other elves got mad. They attacked Ezekial out of nowhere one night as he was sleeping, and stole everything to his name. Bruised and broken he almost couldn’t make it the rest of the way as he heard in the news about a new trading company opening in Curon after his namesake. Interested in what it may be he decided to put Halenor on the backburner to meet his family.
