Alimar and his brother Reggie grew up on the streets of Karcau. Life was hard, and there were many times the brothers came close to starvation. They survived these times by feeding off the fringes of the city's criminal element; at times stealing from other waifs, from drunkards, or participating in back-room fights. The two brothers discovered a particular knack for the last venue, and gradually grew in fame to the point that they found a backer to enter the city's gladiatorial battles in the Serpent's Run. Then fate caught up to them. Favorites going into the match, their backer told them to throw their first few, so he could reap the high odds against them. Being rather headstrong the brothers refused. They won all their games that day, but at a price. Thugs jumped them on the way home that night, breaking the bones in Reggie's legs and arms to the point where he was crippled from that point onwards. Alimar managed to kill 2 of the assailants, but when the city guard intervened he was hauled off to jail. Slated for execution, his death was stayed only through the timely investigation of the Pathfinder Society (or whatever organization you're joining us around :P). Now a member himself, Alimar seeks out new magical items for the society in the hopes of fixing his broken sibling.
