- Torian Culler + (Torian knows he's not the best of men. An … Torian knows he's not the best of men. An orphan raised on the streets amidst the squalor of the Lower Boroughs, he did far more than survive- he became one of the forces that helped keep order in a place frequently forgotten by the Iron Guard, and only visited by the Inquisition when some hapless commoner offended someone powerful enough to squash them like a bug. The indifference of the Iron Guard made Torian determined to make the Lower Boroughs not just a blight, but a place that looked after its own, where brigands were reminded that there are just some people they shouldn't ever try to prey on. Torian met Rencio Culler, the ruthless head of the Culler crime family, when he was fairly young and fell into working with him. Torian thought that Rencio might have a temper, and some of his methods could be extreme, but he respected that the man wanted to genuinely make the Lower Boroughs a better place and do well by his family. Torian fell into working with him as an enforcer while augmenting his income as a sellsword often doing guard work for nobility, and grew ever closer to the Culler family. He might not be proud of some of the things he had to do, but the sellsword grew to even love the Cullers and was adopted by them, and he's spilled enough blood for them that he's still quietly surprised that the Inquisition hasn't seen him hanged a dozen times over. It just reminds him of a sad truth. The nobles just don't care about the Lower Boroughs. Ships come in, drop their cargo, but as long as Iron Guard and house servants make certain that people and goods passing through the Lower Boroughs are unmolested then they are just as happy to forget it exists. At first, Torian was extremely bitter about that, deeply angry that the upper city had forgotten the plight of the poor, but as he helped the Culler family become the prominent force in keeping the peace, there's no longer much true bitterness. He no longer sells his sword, just quietly helping the family keep order, and ever since Rencio and his wife got themselves killed, he's found himself running the family. He never really planned to be boss, or the man to see about trouble in the Lower Boroughs, but things hardly work out as planned. Maybe he can keep a lot of idiots from getting themselves killed, but he'll settle for no more Cullers dying.ut he'll settle for no more Cullers dying.)
