CalmWind - The Silent Warrior

Born much before the Great Shift, the exact year of King Yuri's reign lost in the fathoms of space and time, CalmWind emerged as a relentless and dominant force in the path of the Warrior. Learning of the Chongun subpath the very year it was formed, CalmWind related instantly to the path of Honor, Bravery and Valor, and after a year of training, joined the small Chongun ranks, guided by MaDog, the original elder of the path. At this time, CalmWind was amongst the strongest in the land, at over 200,000 vitality strong. He would continue his excessive training, but balance it now with his duties to the path beautifully.

When LimDul became the elder of the Chongun subpath, one of his main accomplishments would be that of creating guides to the subpath, the first of their kind within the Sodo walls, and one of those honored few would be CalmWind, who had, up until then, especially displayed the qualities of the Chongun and well deserved the title. Training many walkers, he would continue his training regardless.

In the 26th year of King Yuri's administration, CalmWind would become the first Warrior to attain the first mark, Il San. This phenomenal event sparked a ten year string of extraordinary accomplishments. The following year, CalmWind understood the secrets and teachings of the Moon, and adjacent to this was becoming recognized as a Weapon Master by Kiln, and Surviving the Sun, a feat very rare in the Yuri 20's, both in the same year. Two years later, CalmWind would trigger his run of Lesser Alliances, starting with the Sheep, the first of his astounding six Alliances (Sheep, Snake, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, and Rat). Continuing his run of two years between larger scale accomplishments, CalmWind attained the prestigious rank of Ee san, also known as the Second mark, in the 32nd Year of King Yuri's reign, followed directly by dueling Honorable mentions in Poetry revels. The next year, he gained the approval of the Geomancer path, two years before his run of good luck would come to a halt.

Perhaps his choice of staying unrelated to any true family would prove a mistake in the 35th year of Yuri, as their support would have been needed for what was to come. The Lost Mines were once again discovered and subsequently explored, for the third time, and hundreds flocked in search of great treasure and adventure. This incarnation of the Mines spawned dangerous leeches, with the ability to drain the aura from any who approached, such as CalmWind. Taking perhaps too much ambition towards killing them, he offended a few as he did this, and as a result, they saged to the kingdoms CalmWind was a thief of "bosses", numerous times. This disgraced the Chongun path in the eyes of many, especially the Elder at the time, Gildenstar. CalmWind was chastised for his actions by being stripped of one of his greatest accomplishments, his guideship, by the great god Kismet as a result of several complaints. Battered, but not broken, CalmWind went out to find solace in training and a new field, skills, as a walker.

During the years leading up to the time this biography was written, Yuri 39, CalmWind preformed exceptionally as per usual, becoming not only a superior Warrior at over one million vitality, overshadowing all at the point, but a master of many crafts. By Yuri 39, CalmWind had become all of the following; master smith, master smelter, talented tailor, adept woodcutter, adept food preparer, beginner chef, and a skilled miner - a staggering list of accomplished skills indeed. This compilation could only be rivaled by his forty-four carnage victories, and one hundred thirty five completed minor quests, all done during the same time period.

Ascending from Walker to Guide, and then back, CalmWind accomplished many, many labors, rivaling even the Greek hero Hercules.
