As a young child born into the streets he had to learn how to earn a living to support his family just as his older siblings had. First becoming an apprentice to the local blacksmith, he worked long stressful hours and learned the hard way about dicipline and earning money for the family. He soon understood his abilty of disguising what was real to his family and co-workers, and made an extra coin or two preforming illusions in his occasional tme off from the blacksmith. Soon after in his teen years, he began to earn double what his wages brought him working for the blacksmith with nothing but a few cheap stage props and a witty sense of humor. His family pleased with his wages but unsatisfied with his lifestyle, he set out on his own to wake his dent in the world. It wouldnt take him long before he realised that not only would his abilities to entertain others would pay off, but his talents to con others out of their prized possesions seemed to earn him much more coin in the streets. Three years of con and illusion work sent him behind bars. He stayed there almost a year before he began to preform illusion shows to the wardens from his cold, dark cell with no props at all. Then he began to convince them he was of no threat to socity, and was released soon after. Many of whom he got the best of swear he is a changed man, but it is still a debatable issue. Almost always robed in flaunting, but expensive dark colors, he roams the streets in search of his next con victims. What is strange however, is that somtimes honest illusion work doesnt pay all the taxes, and whenever he needs the extra coin for somthing that has cought his eye or just to servive he knows how to get it. Though it is unlikely that he will actualy change his ways in the near future, if you converse long enough with him you may begin to understand the good in him and learn why he does what he does.
