Biography

First voyage

Typhon, a leader of the mermen, struck a deal with the First Crown Prince of Southbay. In return for steel trident points and fishhooks, due to the difficulty of metalwork underwater, Typhon provided him pearls and an escort for his voyages. On one of those voyages, Typhon accompanied the prince to the Great Continent in the east.[1]

Second voyage

We need the steel for our own war in the deep.
—Lord Typhon explains what he needs from the humans in return for his services.

Some time later, Typhon returned to Southbay to meet the prince, but was informed by his past acquaintance Lady Jessene that the prince was dead. She asked him if he would lend them his services once more, and he agreed to the same terms as on the previous occasion, needing the steel for his own martial purposes. He aided Prince Haldric in killing the orcish warlords besieging the kingdom, before departing with them eastward.[1]
