Personality:
Welton 'Two-Fingers' is a hard, serious, stubborn, firm and rarely-forgiving man but also brave and in possession of an immense sense of duty (when it comes to fellow pirates and mercenaries). As is expected of Welton he works hard in his life to prove that he is capable of tackling anything thrown his way. He has a keen mind for strategy and warfare that led him to be respected by many peers and is also fearless in combat, where he could battle and defeat other well trained warriors, even when injured. While he may not be popular, he is certainly respected as a warrior. Welton is often drinking and scheming, he is a bit sassy at times, and when loyalty is proven he is a loyal friend as well.
History:
Welton has always been told he was born in Ziorang, it is unsure who his father is as his mother came back pregnant after some time on the seas everyone says he favors his mother who died when Welton was just a few months old so he doesn't remember her. Welton was raised then by various women of his small village, they were the outcasts and harolets mostly barren but willing to raise orphans. He set out on his own at sixteen with his biggest role model and somewhat Father figure, Captain Tybalt Grimm the mad captain of The Silent Tide, Tybalt was very fond of Welton. Tybalt really helped Welton hone his ability as an elemental, he explained that somewhere in the young man's bloodline royalty prevailed.

Welton sailed and served Tybalt for years spending most of his late teens into mid thirties on the sea, during the blind rages Welton went unphased, hard lessons, punishment, and the plunder Welton was a prodigy of Tybalt Grimm. When the first mate of the Silent Wave passed Welton was promoted but also gained the respect of a last name, Welton Grimm. Together the pair terrorized the seas for a few more years, until Tybalt became sick and with the intent of beating this unknown sickness he quickly faded away. Upon his deathbed he named Welton captain, however a jealous party had risen and dissent erupted.

Welton and his men were the victors of the dispute all it cost Welton was three fingers, a scar or two on his face, but it cost the uspers their lives as Welton had the survivors hung. Captain Welton 'Two-Fingers' Grimm was born but he took things in a different direction by uniting old feuds into a semi large fleet, he filled positions with strong mercenaries, and with a little grease in the hands of the fish trade he became the strongest company for hire that escorted fishing ships to the Queen. What was a better way to fight pirates than by being a pirate? It wasn't all a new leaf turned for Welton and the crew of the Silent Wave, he had his fingers in other cookie jars especially with the smuggling game such as spices of the addictive kind.

Since becoming captain Welton has built his own legend, the pirate who sailed beyond to a land of milk and honey, gold stacked as high as the clouds the land of Tulco far far far far far and very far beyond the grasp of the crown. The promised land for pirates. With coin in pocket Welton has docked in Okadun bay visiting the Capitol, Taras...

....eyes still are weary of the Silent Wave, it has been rumored as the fastest battle ship ever to come from Ziorang! It isn't as much of a rumor as believed when Welton is a elemental with the ability to control the very air around him. He uses the strength of his ability to blow strong winds that speed his boat along, changing direction easily within combat to elude enemies or gain the upper hand. Welton often brags about how his ship has never been boarded.
