-Francis was born in the town of Stonereef in the year 416. Like many people on the [[atlas:Talarakian ​Islands]], Francis had a love for the sea and soon joined the privateers that operate out of the islands. Over the years he acquired a young man named Claude who served as his lackey. Why Francis kept the young man around was always something of a mystery, but Claude did have a wide array of talents and enjoyed fawning on Francis (who loved the attention). It was that Francis'​ ego and his desire for an ever greater amount of silver that landed him in the town of Freeport. This was his first taste of a large continental trading city and he was hooked. It seemed like all of those creature comforts that he had to do without were available cheaply in the town's markets.+Francis was born in the town of Stonereef in the year 416.

 So, when the Running Wave pulled out of port it was shy two crewmen who decided to seek their fortunes on the continent. However, Francis had little skill other than as a ship hand and so it wasn't long before the two were broke and resorting to petty theft to feed themselves. Then a stroke of luck hit them when Francis saw a beautiful young lady being accosted by thieves. Normally he would have simply passed by the mugging, but he was in a good mood and so with his best performance lept between the woman and her attackers. While the thieves tried to get past him, Francis kept them at bay with his sabre while he insulted them with a wide range of words he picked up over the years. Finally, the two men tired of being insulted and charged — Francis neatly finished them off and turned to the woman with a hero's flair. So, when the Running Wave pulled out of port it was shy two crewmen who decided to seek their fortunes on the continent.
