Biography
Early Life
Rozmeo was born to unnamed Santegians in the capital city Presa de Madera. A life of poverty impelled his true parents to abandon the family, leaving him to the mercy of the streets as an orphan. An old man named Paxton Kastrovat soon found the boy sitting in an alleyway, taking him as his own. Together they would wander across Atlas, from frigid wastelands to lush forests, scorching deserts to the unforgiving highlands, experiencing much of what the realm had to offer. The earlier years of his adolescence were filled with adventure, sparing ample time and exposure for young Rozmeo to learn. With Paxton as his mentor and guardian, the boy picked up many trades that would prove much useful is his latter years. The duo part ways a decade into their journey, Paxton had departed to the Seven Skies just as Rozmeo turned fifteen. The boy was on his own once more, only left a single necklace as memento. With little options, Rozmeo settled down within Senntisten to enlist in the King's Legion.
Vincere est Vivere
As an enlisted footman of the Legion, he was given what he needed the most at the time - a roof to sleep under and plenty food on the table. What came unexpected was the strange sense of brotherhood within the ranks, one he'd never felt before. These men did not care for his past nor questioned his age, only took him in almost as kin.
Rozmeo slowly but steadily rose in ranks, having took part in numerous campaigns and missions as an ordinary grunt without much exceptional or distinguished acts, never under the spot light. But his loyalty was one to notice, a decade into his service he was finally brought into the officer corp, earning the trust of Emperor Augustus I and his superiors. To much of others' surprise, Rozmeo fared exceptional well as an officer, rising to the rank of General in only half a decade. As second in command of the vanguard military force of Atlas, he lead the Legion to uphold its renowned and prestigious reputation, most notably in the Vaeyl Wars. Rozmeo organized many expeditions to the snowy wastelands in the far south of Atlas, in search to uncover the truth and purpose of Vaeyl. For his efforts in the Siege of Lasthope, and with the sudden abdication of Seth Renault, he was granted the rank of Grand Marshal by Antonius I and soon knighted by Dame Sophia Halcourt.
