Bruno

Bruno, the current captain of the Eruditio Rangers and a star footballer, had a very eventful past. Born in the Agelta Drylands, Bruno grew up in a remote village surrounded by poverty. But it was those hardships that fueled his longing for freedom. As soon as he was of age, Bruno joined a caravan in hopes of seeing the world. Unfortunately, a tragic accident robbed him of his legs and his freedom. But fate was on his side, for when the caravan passed him through Eruditio, Bruno was offered a second chance. Although it came with great risk, he was so touched by the passion of the city that he decided to take that chance, and in the end of his courage paid off. He not only regained his legs, but was now faster than ever. Instead of continuing his travels, he decided to remain in Eruditio and become its protector.

The caravan traveled between Agelta and the Moniyan Empire every year, and occasionally even did business at the Frozen Sea port. The work was dull and exhausting, consisting of moving heavy goods, caring for the camels, cleaning sand out of the tarps, and other hard labor. But Bruno didn't mind any of it. For him, the excitement of traveling with the caravan far outweighed the hardships. However, a cruel fate would soon befall him. The caravan had stopped near Firewind Valley to rest after traveling for more than half the day under the scorching sun and against the blistering winds. The workers were going about their usual tasks when a huge gust of wind and sand suddenly struck the caravan. The ruckus startled the camels and sent them running, up pulling a loaded wagon to one side. Thiago, who was working on the wagon, could only watch as it tipped towards him. BOOM! The wagon landed on its side and sent a huge cloud of dust into the air. The crew yelled if anyone was hurt, and heard Thiago yell back. When the dust settled, they saw him lying on the ground next to the w
