Torry Maters's page

Born into the House Canden, Torry is but one of the many family members working in the House's shipping businesses. His branch of the family is on the fringe and while they don't thrive they do okay. Torry like his two older brothers before him, was taught about ships and shipping as part of the family business. The only problem was he found the whole affair boring and as he grew older preferred to seek excitement on the streets. Angry at his son's waywardness, Torry's father halted his monthly allowances and stuck him to work in one of the warehouses they used.

Enter Torry's uncle, Gruston. Gruston was a bit of a shady character, but everyone agreed he was a lovable rogue as well. Gruston ran some of his own ships and was heavily into smuggling. At Torry's financial troubles started, Gruston came over to "help". Torry fell under his wing and started into the smuggling trade.

A year later, with a mixture of bribes and manipulation, Torry all but run's the warehouse as the administrator. He makes cash on the side by using it to smuggle goods off the dock and into the city. The majority of it goes to his uncle however, who brings in the goods in. Torry is looking to expand, get bigger. He's tired of playing second fiddle. He wants power, wealth, and he doesn't particularly care how hes gets there. His first few ventures out however have yet to land him any success. If he wants to go big, he's going to need the cash to do so. When he was approached for joining the Smoke Knights, he knew he had found what he needed.

Torry currently lives in a flathouse at the docks. Its part of House Canden and he pays no rent for it.

Torry currently works at a House Canden warehouse he smuggles goods for his uncle through. This involves bribing people to look the other way and hiding the goods from those you just can't bribe.
