### Felix Berner: 1988 - 1996

Felix is the youngest of seven children born to a factory worker and a maid. He was the only son born to the family, placing a heavy burden on him to be a dominant force in his family due to Vlatava's traditionally patriarchal social structure. However, being the youngest child in a family with six older sisters, Felix had his work cut out for him. He struggled for most of his childhood before he decided to abandon his family's expectations on him and forge his own path. When his mother died in a terrorist attack, the family moved from the capital city to Cheřov — a struggling industrial city where Felix's father had family that could help care for his children.

With the move giving him a chance to reinvent himself at school, Felix decided to do just that. Marching to the beat of his own drum, Felix often challenged rules put upon him at home, church, and school. This put Felix at odds with authority figures including his father, sisters, priest, and teachers.

It was little surprise when Felix often ended up in detention for his behavior. It was in detention that Felix met Wolfgang. Though Felix did not care for the boy's name and promptly nicknamed him "Wolfie", the two quickly became friends. The two bonded over *Sword of Sorcery* movies, modeling their own friendship's dynamic on the battle-tested camaraderie of the series' protagonists Fafhrd the Barbarian and the Gray Mouser, with Felix more than happy to play the role of the plucky sidekick with all the best lines to Wolfgang's strong and silent Fafhrd. Their mutual affection for one another was proven time and again with Felix's prompt assistance in helping his new friend handle his bullies — Wolfgang's own father included.

One time when a drunk Anton Bogdanow struck Wolfgang, Felix grabbed an empty bottle and smashed it over Anton's head. As the man fell to the floor unconscious, Felix stood victoriously over the downed abuser, raised the broken bottle over his head, and exclaimed one of the Gray Mouser's famous lines from *Sword of Sorcery*: "No, slimy nobleman! I prefer to abandon this sticking blade as I mean to revenge the wrong done to Faf with my starsteel dagger — Cat's Claw!" The two boys then fled from the scene, laughing hysterically as they disappeared into the night, no longer friends but now true brothers in arms.

### Felix Berner: 1996 - 2000

As it so happened, Felix's own father would die while working in a factory overseen by Wolfgang's family, the Bogdanows. Though Felix's sisters would be taken in by other family members, they were reluctant to do so with Felix, on account of his problem behavior. Rather than burden those that did not want him, Felix stayed with Wolfgang's family — with Wolfgang hiding Felix in his bedroom for weeks before Irina Bogdanow learned of it and offered Felix his own proper bedroom.

Though welcomed into the home, Felix's live-in status was kept from Wolfgang's father Anton, who was rarely home as it were. When Anton was home, Felix and Wolfgang often found reasons to make themselves scarce. However, this was only a temporary need. Before Felix knew it, Anton and Irina were both dead. He felt closer to Wolfgang as a result of this, now both sharing in the tragedy of being orphaned.

### Felix Berner: 2000 - 2009

Felix joined Wolfgang in moving from Cheřov to Helheim to live with his aunt Tashana and her new husband Werner Zytle — brother to the king. Living with true nobility did rein the boys in somewhat, but Graf-Fürst Werner had ambitious plans that were of a less-than-legal sort and the two boys living under his roof were expected to play minor roles in the ongoing scheme.

### Felix Berner: 2009 - Present

When Werner Zytle took the throne of Vlatava in 2009, Felix was given a minor title which allowed him and Wolfgang the leverage they needed to attain a license to open a locksmith shop in the capital of Stadterkönige and set out on their own. However, they were hardly law-abiding folk and continued their criminality. For better or worse, this lifestyle put them back up against the Bogdanow clan.
