A list of all pages that have property "Background" with value "Savio is a merchant prince of Tremorous... but he is not THE Merchant Prince of Tremorous. That would be his older brother, Giorgio, and in this scion's shadow, he has always struggled. Born into the exorbitantly rich, highborn commoner family of Pontelaeus, fortune has always been at Savio's service. However, where it inspired ambition in Giorgio, it bred indolence in his younger brother. None of Savio's projects, aspirations, or ambitions ever seemed to succeed, and plagued by bad luck, he soon learned to stop trying. Money is power, sure. So why struggle? Why not just enjoy success? Although he was trained in some skill at the defense of himself and others, Savio did not share Giorgio's aptitude or interest in the cutthroat social dances and economic mastery that makes Pontelaeus what it is. Although not a prime specimen, he is still a Pontelaeus, but Savio refused to entertain the idea of marrying into beneficial alliances as well, and there have always been rumors about the type of company he keeps. Being useless at politics, business, or alliances created a series of bitter disagreements with his relatives, and Savio sought to distance himself from the family. As a young man, he disappeared to the family's endeavors in the Saffron Chain, drifting from exotic location to exotic location, getting into and out of trouble, and living a wasteful life that did nothing useful for anyone. The Pontelaeus family's patience with this wayward son was not infinite, and after almost a decade of tolerating Savio's indulgences and bankrolling his bad luck, they cut him off. Penniless, he was forced to return to Arx, where he is expected to make himself useful to Giorgio and to the family.". Since there have been only a few results, also nearby values are displayed.
