Godric Avery
From Saratta
The Annexation of Ballard
Godric Avery was born into a life of privilege. The seventh son of Brion and Martha Avery, he is a member of the royal house of the small city-state Ballard. Ballard, a minuscule island-nation, is located at the lucrative junction of two sea-trade routes. As a result, the island and its inhabitants enjoyed a great deal of autonomy and wealth, much of which trickled up to the royal family.
At least until the island nation, which had no standing army, was annexed by the Naltronian Empire.
