Thirty five years ago, the Baron Didier de Groulaut and his wife, Caitlyn mab Orla de Groulaut had a son. He would be the second child they would have of four, and he would be the most ambitious. The family’s manor was in close proximity to many of the coastal fishing villages that Havre was known for. So even though his older sister, Sinead Ivonne de Groulaut mab Caityln, took the finer upbringing offered to her in a D’Angeline household, Kristophe spent much of his time amongst the villages and upon the shores.

The sea fascinated him, and even though he was given a proper noble upbringing which included a well-rounded education, he learned the most from speaking to the fisherman and the people of the villages; it would serve him well in time as he made connections that would eventually get him out of Havre.

It was not as if he wanted to be gone. Life was not that difficult for him really. In time his sister returned back to Alba, having wished to see her mother’s homeland, and when she got there decided to stay for an extended period. Two more siblings would follow however, Euan Luis de Groulaut (he would become a Cassiline), and Kiera Groulaut de Fiscarde. They were much younger and life changed at the Manor for Kristophe. His father knew he was to be the heir of Havre, but at the same time knew he could not contain his sons ambition to do more than wait around for him to die. Thus, when Krisophe came home with the chance to set sail upon a Merchant vessel, his father relented.

Kristophe would spend many years upon the Merchant ship, learning the ins and outs of commerce, trade and how to negotiate with people. It was something that intrigued him, and he had a real knack for remembering ship sails, their names and what they traditionally carried.

His service was valued as he spoke fluent Alban, due to his mother, and more often than once helped out in securing the trade deals between the lands. However, it was on a recent stop to Pointe de Soeurs that he was approached and asked if he would be interested in working as the harbor master for the major port there. It took some convincing, but Kristophe agreed and thus began his new chapter as Pointe de Soeurs Harbor Master.

He would keep this job for a while, and he became quite good at it. It amazed people whom he worked with how he never really wrote much down. The ship names, the cargo, the Captains, he kept a small log of it all, but it was never often opened; he simply remembered.

Recently, he was asked to come to the city of Elua and be the Dock Master, a position he readily accepted.
