History
Wilton Bree is born in exile in the City State of Thess while his mother, Honeysuckle Bree is hiding from agents and assassins of Stormlord Lanak Iskarr, ruler of Varen.
Hidden by the Church of Zilchus, Wilton and his mother manage to stay hidden in Thess until 2952 when an agent of Lanak Iskarr accidentally discoveres them while walking down the street. The next three days, Honeysuckle, with Wilton in hand, leads an increasing number of Stormlord agents and assassins on a wild goose chase through the streets, alleyways and canals of Thess.
On the third day, after she temporarily, but on purpose, lose their pursuers, Honeysuckle contacts the Patriarch of the Church of Zilchus and makes a proposal. If the church takes in, raise and educates Wilton to become the next Duke of Nord, she will become their agent. Knowing her abilities and given the chance of regaining their church lands and possessions in Nord, the Patriarch quickly accepts. That night, Honeysuckle gives Wilton into the Patriarch’s care. Then, rounding up all the agents after them, she disappears into the night taking the Varen agents with her.
It would be years before Wilton see his mother, again.
Periodically moving Wilton, the church sees to his upbringing and education. He is sent to the finest schools and universities, all under different assumed names. Every once in a while, he gets to see his mother, for a day or two, but never in the same location.
Under his assumed names, he has met with most of Syra’s leading movers and shakers, thinkers and leaders and the occasional scoundrel.
In 2969, with the death of Wilton’s father, Ferrel Bree and Lanak Iskarr, Honeysuckle Bree, with the add of the Church of Zilchus and the Nord Underground, brings Wilton back to Nord.
In 2970, Wilton Bree is crowned Duke of Bree. There is wild celebration throughout Bree.
Duke Wilton quickly makes agreements with Thess, Cimmer, and a number of churches, including the Church of Zilchus, to return to Nord. With the influx of monies, he creates the Army and Navy of Nord, Nordic Arcane Circle, Nordic Bank and Merchant Navy.
In 2973, Duke Wilton convenes a Synarchy ClanMeet where they write the Nord Constitution.
In 2775, the Nord Constitution is made law.
In 2779, Wilton marries Zahara Diamantaire, daughter of the rich and powerful Diamantaire Cartel of Thess. Zahara is not popular in the duchy, but her reputation improves with the birth of their first son, Corin, the next year, 2780. She then quickly produces Juliana, Ned, Fenton and Thaisa.
