History: He was born several months after his father was called into army service. His parents died when he was young, and he was unceremoniously dumped in the city orphanage. Pirithin grew up in the orphanage, tormented by the older kids and famished from lack of food.

When his spouse passed he lost his only source of income but claims to his sons to still be retired.
