Origin
Yohn Othan's life was a vivid tapestry of daring performances and hidden scars before he became a feared pirate in the Lakes of Mondego. Starting from a young age as one of the many neglected orphans in the streets of the city, Salit, Yohn was captivated by the circus from a young age. His innate agility and flair for acrobatics drew the attention of Bellaric Hames, the ringleader of a traveling circus. Unfortunately, the circus was less a place of wonder than one of oppression, with Bellaric exploiting his performers, Yohn especially as one of the stars of the show, for profit. As the conditions in Salit deteriorated, marked by increasing class disparity and the famine that was soon to come, Yohn’s life in the circus became unbearable.
When news of the Nautilus and their rebellious acts against the upper class of Salit reached him, Yohn saw a flicker of hope. His chance came one evening when the circus performed near the docks; using the chaos of a particularly grand finale (involving the arson of several circus tents along with an unfortunate "accident" for Bellaric involving a captured ravager) as cover, Yohn escaped, slipping away to find the Nautilus. Finding the hidden cove wasn’t easy, but Yohn's determination led him to the renegade pirates. He was welcomed into their fold, his skills as an acrobat quickly repurposed for nimble combat and stealth operations on board their ship, The Nautilus. Yohn embraced the pirate life, driven by a deep-seated desire for revenge against the injustices he had suffered and seen inflicted on the lower classes in Salit. As Yohn grew into his role among the Nautilus, he became an embodiment of their ideals—fighting not just for wealth or food, but for the freedom and dignity of the oppressed. His tales of the circus, both wondrous and dark, wove into the growing tapestry of Nauticca's culture, further enriching the storied past of the pirate nation he now called home.
After the Nautilus fled Salit following the great famine, Yohn would be one of the few survivors alongside Nitalia Witting, the now Commander of Nauticca. Following the emergency landing on Tebatari and the Nautilus return to the Lakes of Mondego, Yohn would go on a journey through the lands, performing in cities across Cinder for scraps and learning the ropes of this new world, until eventually returning to his kin in the official nation of Nauticca.
Yohn officially became a member of Nauticca on the 19th of March, 2024.
Notable Actions within Cinder
Roots of Arboria
Before it would officially declare itself a nation on the 1st of April, 2024, Yohn would fulfill much contract building for the former stateless city (now officially the Land of Arboria). Notable builds constructed by Yohn Othan would be the Verdania Community House, Verdania's barn, and the Moth's Nest Tavern. Along with being paid in valuables and building supplies, Yohn would be granted permits to build a vacation home for himself and his fiancé, Howlite, within the now bustling capital of Verdania.
Battle of Yergola
Following tense relations between several Southern nations (most notably the Silly Company, Danouvia, the Southern Tribesmen, Saristania, and a few others who had banded together to create the Southern Cinder Coalition, or SCC for short) and the former nation of Yergola, a war would be officially declared by the SCC on the 23rd of March, 2024. Yohn Othan would be contracted as a mercenary alongside his Nauticcan compatriot, Yuei Kanazaki by the SCC, to make an offensive move on the Yergolan monarchy.
On the 29th of March, 2024, the Nauticcan mercenaries would make the trek from Nauticca to Yergola to fight in the Battle of Yergola. The only things of note is that Yohn bested the Thundran official, Vinz Izon (it is to be of note that Izon was naked in combat), on the battlefield, and the fighting lasted no longer than an hour. Queen Selene I of Yergola was nowhere to be seen in this conflict.
Raid on Gono
On the 31st of March, 2024, Yohn Othan and his accomplice, Glitch Time, raided what they thought to be the abandoned megastructure of Gono. The duo obtained many items of value, from bountiful building supplies that would better both of their respective nations, to weapons of war with offensive and defensive purpose. Following the raid, the Republic of Ritannia would claim that Gono was under Ritannian jurisdiction, following Cauldran/Firgardian denizen, Aron the Formidable exposing the actions of Yohn and Glitch to the world.
Ritannian officials would descend upon the duo, pressuring the so-called raiders to return the items they took, or else consequential action would follow. This caused Ritannia to call out Nauticca on the world stage, with several other nations external of the incident to comment on the events, and put a rather glaring spotlight on Nauticca. While the Cauldrans were more amicable to return his items, Yohn Othan stood his ground.
Yohn Othan would challenge the Republic of Ritannia in the one court LeBron did not play well on, the court of law. To this day, there is still yet to be a trial on the matter.
