Biography: Argo was born near the orphanage where he lived. His mother died giving birth to him, and unable to bear the misery of losing her his father left him at the orphanage before plunging himself to his death from the top of the cliffs overlooking the seas. Left in the hands of the man he would one day come to despise, Argo began his miserable existence at the hands of the orphanage's owner. Over the years he suffered through merciless beatings from the man who ruled over him. Singled out, the old man showed his hatred for the boy. One day Argo had been playing with the other children and accidentally knocked over the laundry water. The old man found out about it when he heard the bucket hit the ground. Instantly, he came forth from the home grabbing Argo by his throat and dragging him inside. Moments later the boy screamed in agonizing horror. The old man grabbed the antique wooden clock from his shelf and proceeded to strike Argo in the face with it. Over and over, he kept pounding on the boy until he stopped screaming. Argo felt close to death's door, and felt the cold embrace of the end creeping upon him. The boy grew stronger in that moment, and with revenge filling his thoughts, he lived on. He clung desperately to life to exact vengeance on the old fool. Many years passed and he arrived to the day of his 16th birthday. He waited until that night before he went into the chambers of the man who took his face from him. He grabbed the antique clock from the shelf and began slamming it down into the back of the skull of the dog who defiled his face. He kept going until the skull was nothing more than a pool of bone fragments and blood resting on the pillow. He was not yet satisfied though. He began to grow with thoughts of violence toward the people around him. Those who dare mocked him for what had happened. Even the innocent. He grew hellbent on killing them all. He began the massacre that night, and the screams of terror could be heard all through the night. By morning he had finished his deadly pleasures, and took part in the debauchery of life. He left the orphanage behind, leaving not one person alive. His night of pleasure over, he began life anew amongst the world. Unfortunately, the marines had come to the crime scene and knew that it had to be done from within. They searched the documents of every child that had been there, and found of one document made and hidden of the vicious beating that occurred years before. The man who was held responsible was the man who they could not locate at the crime. They began to hunt down Argo. They had only had a picture of his face before disfigurement though. They did, however suspect that a disfigured face would be a dead give away. As he Shortly after Argo managed to arrive at a small town where he found a wanted poster with his old face on it, and his name. Taking the money he had taken with him from the orphanage he went to the nearest shop wearing a hood to purchase a mask. The owner of the shop had many masks, but only one that truly spoke to Argo. It was an odd looking mask. He pulled the money and gave the shopkeeper enough money, and told him the mask to get. The mask cost him most of the money he had brought. But he had enough to survive on for awhile. With the money in hand he bought enough food to last him on his trip to the next town.

He traveled for 14 long years plundering and stealing all across the northern continent. Breaking into homes, and killing those who got in his way. Only stopping every once in awhile at a pub or inn to spend small amounts of money on alcohol and a warm bed. Fighting his way through the world, he had heard of more and more treasures. Making a book of notes, he marked down each treasure he had heard of. He planned to set sail one day and go hunting for these treasures. As his fortune amassed over the years he bought a ship at the age of thirty and began his journey as a pirate.

Method of fighting: Argo carries with him two very large meat cleavers. As his height and size dictates, he is very slow, but his attacks carry a lot of weight and power, allowing him to deal more damage with each attack he performs.
