Background:

Saul's father is a merchant who lives to earn money and his mother is a socialite who lives to spend it.
Saul was an unwanted child, and his parents never hid this fact as he grew up.
At first Saul tried to impress them, but they didn't care and after a while he tried to rebel. He discovered that unless his actions cost them too much money or too much embarrassment, they still never paid attention to him.
Saul's only real friend growing up was a young street thief named Blake Dunum. Blake often found himself on opposite side of people's fists and Saul ended up defending him from blown marks and older crooks.
Eventually Saul and Blake starting stealing things from his father's various holdings, a fact his father has never discovered. Their activity brought the two youths to the attention of the Thieves Guild, which they quickly agreed to join.
The pair worked jobs for the Guild for years, hitting his parent's holdings as much as opportunity allowed .
It was during one of these jobs, that the warehouse guards cornered and killed Blake. While Saul knows that his father wasn't directly to blame (after all, they were stealing from him) he still holds him accounted for his best friends death.
Blake also left behind Annalee, an illegitimate child that he had with a barmaid named Lillian. Saul's taken it upon himself to take care of them financially and with the occasionally bit of odd physical labor as needed.
Saul is in love with Lillian, though he has yet to really admit it to himself. Blake and Lillian were never bound in marriage, but Saul fears that any feeling he may have for Lillian would be a betrayal of Blake's memory (Saul takes much better care of them then Blake ever did- or ever wanted to- not that Saul would see it that way)
Saul still works for the Guild, it's really the only life he knows at this point. He actually enjoys the work and the thrill it gives him, but subconsciously he's starting to get worried about what would happen to Lillian and Annalee if he were to die or get imprisoned.
