History: Giacomo was born in the city of Clarendon to a noble family. During his youth, he was raised by butlers and servants, while his parents attended noble duties. His mother, at times, babied Giacomo, often speaking to the boy about odd riddles. Despite his mother's oddities, Giacomo enjoyed the time spent with his mother. As a youth, he played with other noble children and his sister, while being prepared for his duty as the next in line of the Balla noble family. Out of all the members in his family, he was the closest with his sister. He also deeply respected his mentor, a butler, who educated Giacomo daily, when he reached the age of six.
At the age of eight, Giacomo's mother fell to illness, and she was buried in a noble's tomb. A year after the misfortune, his father remarried another noble, which strengthened the family's power. Both Giacomo and his sister were devastated by the death of their mother, since their mother was the only family member that actually spent time with them. Giacomo's step brother is born during Giacomo's tenth year.
Giacomo's tenth birthday signified that he was ready to train in combat. He practiced with a multitude of weaponry against knight tutors, and his mentor. At the age of fifteen, his sister was wed to another noble family, and Giacomo completed his primary education, meaning he was ready to lead the noble family, once his father dies. However, Giacomo's original goals changed when he met a commoner, while engaging himself in politics at Clarendon's merchant center.
She was nothing but a commoner, yet she captured Giacomo's heart. The two experienced a young love that influenced Giacomo to escape his duties as nobility. This was due to the noble family having arranged marriages with other nobles in order to improve their wealth. Therefore, Giacomo either had to break it off with his lover, or run away from his duties. He chose the later, and the two spent their lives in a village. His family disowned Giacomo for his decision, and he was considered an outcast.
In the village, Giacomo lived his life peacefully. He took up a job as a woodcutter in order to provide for his lover. Unfortunately, when he returned back to his small cottage, he found a note from his lover stating that she left with another man. Now heartbroken, Giacomo quit his job as a woodcutter, and began to assume that deceit and self gain was everyone's motivation in life. Fortunately, he received letters from his sister, the one person he still trusts, during his time in the village. Yet with his lover gone, he went on the roads in search of a way to fix his broken heart.
Before he turned twenty, Giacomo wandered the villages in search of odd jobs to keep himself afloat and to pay his drinking bills. He succumbed to alcohol as his daily fix in a cruel and horrible world. One day, while hunting, a bandit attacked Giacomo to which Giacomo responded by killing the bandit. He completed the task without hesitation, and he somewhat enjoyed the thrill of combat. His morals were clearly deprived, for he lacked basic sympathy even after taking another person's life.
A few months after his twentieth birthday, Giacomo met with a messenger, who passed another letter along to Giacomo. Giacomo opened the letter to discover that his mother's body had been robbed by a grave defiler. Aggravated by the letter's contents, Giacomo decided to travel and see the tomb for himself. His sister had left a key to the tomb's entry for Giacomo in the letter.
Inside Clarendon, Giacomo's birth city, Giacomo entered the tomb to find his mother's body missing. Yet, that's not the only thing that surprised Giacomo that day. He also noticed a riddle etched into the walls of the tomb site. A riddle only his mother would know. This prompted Giacomo to visit his sister, and after a heartfelt reunion between brother and sister, he told his sister about the riddle. The two retold their versions of the riddle that they each separately learned from their mother. The result led to the coordinates of a mine. Since his sister was busy as a mother and wife, Giacomo headed to the mine alone.
While in the mines, Giacomo found a dead body bearing Norhad Swords' attire and a mysterious gem. Giacomo pocketed both items, and he was unlucky in finding additional information from the mines about the body's disappearance. He gets the items appraised and he learns that the clothes are worn by Norhad Swords, and the gem is considered unknown among mineralogists. Therefore, in order to figure out this mystery, Giacomo traveled to milestone.
His age was twenty four when he made his way for the first time to milestone. He decided he would enlist in the organization and figure out the mystery. This was his only goal, and his sole purpose for living now. Nothing awaited him back at Clarendon, and the commoner that betrayed Giacomo was with another man.
