==Biography==
True parents of Afioso are unknown. He was first found at 117 AB in a barrel of the coast of Western Plagos by Anzhegg Stringstone - a poor man that lived by the ocean side. Later on he came to adopt another orphan called Onkel that became brother figure for Brave. As Brave grew, he and his brother ventured onto their respective adventures. Around the age of 16 the transport ship that he snuck on, encountered a great storm and crashed into the rocks near the town of Lunos. That place became Brave's new home, as he became friends with the local leader called Neco.
Couple years later Afioso got engaged with an unknown woman that similar to him in the past, had also seeked shelter from the storm. Their relationship lasted only few years during which Afioso, following his father footsteps, allowed the adoption of Cacto. Around this time Neco conceived a plan to gain independence from Greater Plagos. Brave was one of most prominent figures leading the conspiracy. Before they could enact their plan however, Lunos was burned to the ground by Plagos soldiers. Wanting to protect his teenage son, he managed to escape on a ship, but ultimately losing his son at the docks. Afioso once again encountered a massive storm, causing the vessel to sink. It was when he experienced a vision of an entity with 8 red eyes called Oro.
He woke up on a beach of Nieden, at Sadahef province. It was then when he encountered Azzar that helped him, letting live in a city of Pomjad. Thanks to his skills Afioso rose in ranks of the Order, becoming the komtur of said city. Brave also reconnected with Cacto and Onkel, participating in some of their projects, fighting in defence of Zhufortt and working with various chemicals, among others. He participated in the defence from Plagatean invasion, O'Kris funeral, Jakkev's coronation and took part in the Grand Najer Race. It was around that time when he started developing his skills related with his classpect and started experimenting with it.
Brave later on constructed a labirynth in the middle of the Silver Sea, using gravity anchors, thanks to the assistance of Tytanik. The labirynth was used to contain Neo Coolen as a punishment, luring potential adventurers to their doom. When Shadow Stensar continued his investigation on O'Kris' death, Brave had send Stensar to said labirynth, wanting to test his structre. He and few other ORQ members also planned to facilitate on Stensar's occupancy to perform a heist on Flaeheld Avalor in order to steal some recipes and resarch.
This ultimately led to the eruption of an infamous infection in Pomjad. Due to being close to the epicenter of the distaster, his head was partially damaged, from that point partially obscured by a mask. He did not succumbed to the desease but suffered a significant brain damage, resulting in lowering his dexterity and a memory loss, not being able to remember his family member, or recollecting the events of the outbreak. Soon after Afioso attempted to take his own life by fall - this attempt proved unsuccesfull, only shattering his legs, which were later reconstructed with metal parts and springs, providing greater speed. From that point onward, Brave would mostly silently follow Cacto, relying on his memory instead of his own.
