Victor Blank's Questionnaire

I live in the city of Pyre because of the incredible opportunities it offers. It’s a place where ambition thrives, where anyone with determination can carve out a future. What draws me even more is the constant influx of new ideas, technologies, and cultures from the New World—it keeps life in Pyre exciting and unpredictable. But beyond opportunity and innovation, Pyre’s unique location sets it apart. Sitting on the edge between the civilized world and the untamed wild lands, the city has a raw, restless energy. That borderland quality brings a certain freedom—laws are more flexible here, and rules can be bent. It’s not always safe, but it’s always alive. In Pyre, anything feels possible.

I earn my living through a mix of legitimate trade and riskier ventures. By day, I work for a well-established trading company in Pyre, brokering deals, negotiating prices, and connecting merchants across regions. The city’s position on the edge of the wild lands makes it a perfect hub for rare and valuable goods, and I’ve built a solid reputation for securing high-profit agreements. But that’s only part of the picture. On the side, I supplement my income through smuggling—moving goods that are either banned, highly taxed, or too dangerous for official channels. It’s a dangerous game, but the profits are worth it. In Pyre, you survive best by playing both sides.
