	Elliot Brown's parents, poor dirt-farmers in the Myrken countryside, had three children, an eldest boy and two younger daughters. When the younger girl was two years old, his parents lost a fourth child due to an infant illness turning them off of the idea of having future children. Six years later Elliot was born. He was a mistake. That they had a third daughter a year after he was born showed that they were mistake prone more than anything.

-As Elliot began to more thoroughly ply his trade, he began to make friends and enemies around town. Marek Waldemar, mill owner, possessed a crotchety and pious nature that made him an ideal target. The fae Zilliah often reacted to strong emotions which drew him to Elliot and also made him wish to create mischief around him. It was due to Zilliah's actions that Elliot came to possess a ring of Solena's, one that protected his mind from mental intrusion. It was that ring that kept him safe from Rhaena Olwak whose prissy ways belied her previous personality traits and who Elliot saw as an extreme hypocrite. The boy Cherny started as a friend but soon the two ended up at odds due to the lad's honest nature and the strong pride that both shared. On the other hand, the urchin Cat soon ended up taken under his wing.

 Meanwhile, Elliot continued his training. His skill at picking locks was ever increasing but he could not best a particular box owned by Solena. In order to work on the hardest locks he could think of, he infiltrated Darkenhold, searching for it in Ariane Emory's room. Upon being caught, he offered to trade his services in exchange for room and board. He realized, however, that he needed Solena's permission first as well as to increase his knowledge of locks. Upon speaking with Solena she reassured him that he was free to make his own decisions. Shortly thereafter, he began to use his ill-gotten gains to buck the normal apprentice system and start working with various blacksmiths in town, showing an immediate deftness when it came to fine work and the understanding of locks.

	Therefore, when Rhaena Olwak visited Nova a few days later, she had dread in her heart. Rhaena convinced her that it was the ring causing all of Elliot's 'sickness.' In response, Nova managed to remove it from his finger during a particularly aggressive, It-inspired kiss and secret it away. By this point, the energies of the magical feedback had mostly dissipated on their own. The impulse that drove him to kiss Nova aggressively used up most of the last of it. Two days later, he was able to track an increasingly guilty Nova down and retrieve the ring. Convincing Gloria that he was himself again was trickier. In the end, his ambition reawakened once more he returned to Whelp, letting her know that he would support her against It for the chance to spite the creature as much as for anything else.

-Although he visited the Dagger less now that he wasn't living in Myrkentown proper, he soon came into contact with the woman Whelp and the dark creature living inside of her, It. Niall took an interest in the creature due to a magical harmony between the two. At first, Elliot, much like his early experiences with Nova wanted nothing to do with the possessed wildling, but he was the victim of a magical accident, snatched into a kiss by It during a backlash of power between the two women. This caused his feelings for Niall at her worst to conflate with It, leaving him dazed and confused, hungover and vulnerable whenever he was near Whelp.

-It took advantage of his weakness, using the dark magic of its nature to reawaken Elliot's ambition which had grown complacent in Galacia's absence and amidst all of his recent victories. His ring protected him from the very worst of It's power and he was able to start to recover over time, but not before Nova walked in upon him in It's clutches, the creature's vile magic sickening the pale girl and causing her to fear and despair. Meanwhile, Gloria having grown closer to Elliot in many oblique and obtuse ways attempted to pull him away from It through both fisticuffs and letters.

Meanwhile, Gloria having grown closer to Elliot in many oblique and obtuse ways over the months before, and afflicted by a cursed dream that portrayed him as a force for darkness, had been attempting to pull him away from It through both fisticuffs and letters. In this case, she pulled Nova away physically in order to explain the situation to the pale woman in her own underinformed Jerno way.

 During this time Elliot drifted further and further away from Niall. He also spent more and more time at the Broken Dagger, being a loud and general nuisance. This had various repercussions. The first was being stabbed by Jirai. This brought him close to death and only Catch's timely intervention saved him. The second was having a dagger tossed at him by Solena. It was just a warning shot but he still picked it up and claimed it as his own out of pure stubbornness. By mid autum of 211, Solena had tracked him down and had begun teaching how to defend himself with those Daggers. He had forsaken his giant sword, dubbed 'the world' by Catch, as it had proved useless to him against someone as swift as Jirai.
-At first, he simply learned how to use the Daggers. More and more, however, Solena began to teach him about balance and the beginnings of thievery skills. He still identified himself as a squire, so while the two were starting to open up to one another, his tutelage was still fairly narrow in focus. His self-identification was shattered in January of 212 when Marshall Renea Sundance refused to allow him entrance to the cell where she was watching over the imprisoned Catch citing his association with Solena as the reason why. Shortly thereafter, he started to allow the elf to teach him broader things, revealing a natural talent for lockpicking.

 Two new influences would soon enter his life. The first was Gloria Wynsee, a foreigner a few years younger than he who possessed a stubborn streak to match his own. Through sheer perseverance and attacking him directly at the weakest points of his walls, the two stumbled into a rather reluctant friendship. In order to prove the depth of her nature and breadth of her experience, Gloria attempted to scare Elliot by sending a roughly made whip, the sort she once used upon others back in her homeland, down near his back. Elliot, stubborn and frustrated, leaned into the blow, sealing their unusual friendship with blood and pain and meaning.
-The second was Galacia Tarin Talus Vraal, the dreamwitch used in stories by Myrken mothers to scare their children into behaving. Elliot met her shortly after Solena had gone away on business. He was frustrated that she had not told him more of what was going on and doubly so due to a prank with drugged drinks that she wished to perform that reminded him of the drugged chocolate. He still admired his mentor but he was also ready to strike out more on his own. Galacia he first saw battling Aleksei River, who he still resented for being unable and unwilling to help with Nova months before. She entered his dreams and he tried to sell out Aleksei almost immediately. This interested her and as they subsequently interacted, he became more and more brazen to her. She began to visit his dreams more often, inspiring him to greatness and darkness and to think more about his decisions than ever before. Through speaking with her, he came to the realization that he did not want to choose between Niall and Nova but instead would settle for nothing less than to have both of them.

Pleased with his initiative Galacia provided him with one of her talons, with which he could cut through magic and an onyx pendant to link the two of them. She would, however, withdraw to other dreams and planes shortly thereafter.
