History

Childhood

Yefimo Cheslav was born in the small farm town of Hazelcoast in the Toschkan Kingdom. He was a regular kid in the countryside, helping his mom and dad in the field and on the ranch that they owned, when he wasn't on the farm or in the living room with his parents, he could usually be found by the river in the forest near their farm. He was an adventurous kid and his parents always worried that he may come back hurt, but he never did, as he knew not to stray to far from the farm and was careful to never do so.

Teenage Years

In Yefimo's Tennage years he took kindly to a girl, by the name of Maria, he always visited the tavern of the golden hoe, which is where she worked after he had done his duties on the farm, his parents knew her well and quickly noticed without saying they clicked well, not long after they got together and became a loving couple at a young age, not long after the tavern owner noticed, and offered Yefimo work at the tavern, he knew Yefimo well as he was a family friend, but Yefimo declined, he appreciated the offer, but he had to take care of his farm and his family, it was his duty as their son, the tavern owner said to Yefimo he had a feeling he would decline as he knew he was a dutiful kid, but Yefimo and Marias love continued to grow throughout the years.

Adulthood

In his Adult years he was still a farmer, after he had taken over the the farm from his parents as they had grown older and unable to keep up the farm, but aside him was his fiance Maria, who helped him around the farm and they were still a loving couple. One day that seemed regular and normal to Yefimo, he heard someone yelling for his name in panick, he ran over with his tools and asked what happened as he saw the panick in the mans eye's, the man explained that the military had arrived and wished every man in town to go to the town square. Yefimo ran off to the barn and laid his tools on the ground in a hurry, as he headed to the square, as he arrived in the square he saw his fiance he asked if she knew what was happening, and she said that the Seralian Kingdomhas waged war against them.
Yefimo confused and baffled, and scared of the consequnces, he listened as the speaker got the peoples attention, the speaker explained that any man between the ages 18 to 30 and able to fight is required to join the army. Yefimo knew at this moment there was no choice, as he loved his nation and his family, and wanted to do all he could to protect both, Without hesitation he ran up and saluted and yelled that he was ready for the worst, the soldiers took note, but not long after other's joined in, even with the fear they had, they saw Yefimos bravery and got a little bravery themselves to stand alongside him.
The soldiers chuckled and the noble alongside the speaker noticed and asked what Yefimo's name was, he told his name and the noble said he would be leading this group, he told Yefimo to get his men ready by noon the day after, Yefimo without hesitation saluted and went off like the rest of the townsfolk. When he got home with his wife, he readied some supplies for the training camp, and his wife understood his motives and his new duty and said she would take care of the farm while he's gone, he kissed her and hugged her, and couldn't be more thankful to her for being there for him.
Yefimo arrived at his training camp and saw the noble and walked over to him and saluted, the noble turned around delighted to see Yefimo, and told him he would be the leader of his battalion, Yefimo explained that he had no experiance and was but a farmers boy, but the noble shushed him and said that he may be a farmers boy but a charasmatic one and seems to be no fool, Yefimo was happy to hear this but also proud of himself, he thanked the noble and walked off to train together with his battle brothers.
The time had come for Yefimo and his battle brothers, in front of them stood an army of mages and machine men, which he knew throughout his training to be contructs, he told his men that they should have no fear, for every inch of land they take, they come closer to a safer Toschkan kingdom, his men cheered him as they went into battle, they were brave and some were lost but he prooved to himself, he wasn't so bad nor was he a fool, he fought them for every inch for every man they took, his men took triple that, the Seralians retreated and the men hailed the kingdom and then hailed their leader, when they came back to camp, the nobleman noticed Yefimo's bravery and skill in battle and leading, and told him he should be proud but not cocky as this was but the first battle of many.
Not long after his first few battles he got a letter, in that letter it told that his wife was sick and may not have long as even the healers of the village could contain whatever foul disease has latched onto her, he asked the noble and the noble understood, and send him off to his home town with some medicine in hand, as Yefimo arrived, he saw his wife dying, laying on her bed, she was unconscious and was barely alive, Yefimo with the healers tried the medicine but to no avail, and not long after, she had passed, Yefimo cursed this world, and quickly became a broken man, loosing the love of his life, but alongside the empty feelings, not long after a wrath brewed within him with rage and anger as he cursed this world, he went to the army, and carried on the campaign against the Seralian.
After many months and years, the war was over, it had finished, Yefimo was happy but also felt lost, he didn't know what to do now, he was a different man, he had sold his farm, his past life, and knew not where to go, He sat himself in the Golden hoe, the tavern owner who was stilla family friend came down to Yefimo, and patted him on the shoulder and asked why he was so lost, Yefimo explained his circumstance and the tavern owner told him, that if he was such a warmonger with a cheeky laugh, then why not start a company of mercenaries, he had enough gold, Yefimo brightened up from the table and said he'll do him one better, and start a guild of sort where mercenaries can go for work, or help if need be, so they shan't feel lost like he did and explained his quick idea of the guild to the tavern owner. The tavern owner laughed, and said he might be on to something, and so Yefimo decided to buy some land, and started The Mercenaries Guild not long after.

Late Adulthood

Running the guild in his adulthood was slow as barely any outside of his hometown knew of it, but it quickly grew as people from all around the world noticed the potential of this idea, that people who were not adventorous could also place a request for a simple matter, and to mercenaries of higher caliber, there was something for everybody, and many took notice, and so the guild grew. Yefimo decided in his later years to grow it to the whole world and not just the kingdom it was formed in, it grew to Seralia a nation he had previously fought, and even there it grew in spectacular size.
Yefimo became older and older, and not long after the guild had a reputation one of reliability and trust that even kings would hire the men inside, he was happy, but knew his time was short, he had not long before he would meet his wife in the lands below, but he was proud of himself once more to know that he had put a mark on this world that would benefit many, but he did not want to go out silently, he wanted to go out in glory, so he took it upon himself to take a quest with Diamond rank adventures and mercenaries, the quest was simple, slay a hoard of goblins, as they arrived at the cavern the goblins stormed at them as they had already seen the adventures and Yefimo. They fought their way through to the end of the goblin camp, all exhausted and injured, but they heard horns once more and they were ready, they fought the goblin hoard, one of bigger size as it came from all directions.
Yefimo could feel his old age but kept going till an arrow in the midst of the hoard striked him, the adventures fought continuesly and was victorious but looked down as they saw Yefimo dead, but with a grin, like he had finally done what he wanted, to go out in glory.
