	Caligari Albion was born into a lower-nobility household within the Empire of ~~Azharul~~ as the youngest son of Bari and Ancona Albion, and the youngest of four surviving children. Although his family possessed noble status, the Albions lived comparatively modest lives, valuing scholarship, craftsmanship, and learning above wealth or political influence.		Caligari Albion was born into a lower-nobility household within the Empire of Azah'rul as the youngest son of Bari and Ancona Albion, and the youngest of four surviving children. Although his family possessed noble status, the Albions lived comparatively modest lives, valuing scholarship, craftsmanship, and learning above wealth or political influence.

	Caligari's parents were devoted followers of Mystra despite the severing of Westwynd from the Weave generations earlier. They believed that one day magic would return to the continent and quietly maintained their faith even as arcane practices became increasingly uncommon.

	His father, '''Bari Albion''', was a renowned inventor and craftsman whose ability to transform theoretical concepts into practical creations earned him considerable prestige within ~~Azharul~~. His success allowed the family to establish and govern their own fief. His mother, '''Ancona Albion''', descended from one of Venoa's personal advisers and possessed exceptional talents in diplomacy, negotiation, and information gathering. Together they built a respected household founded upon cooperation and shared ideals.

	Caligari was born alongside his twin brother, '''Trento Albion'''. Whereas Trento excelled as an inventor and magical engineer, Caligari developed a talent for observation and adaptability. The two frequently worked together creating enchanted gadgets and harmless magical pranks throughout ~~Azharul~~, with Trento providing the ingenuity and Caligari finding practical ways to execute or escape their schemes.

	Among all of his siblings, Trento remained the person who treated Caligari most normally, never viewing him as cursed but simply as someone whose talents differed from his own.

	Lazio was the first to advocate military service after watching many of his friends enlist. Although Bari initially opposed the decision, widespread patriotic fervor, fear generated by the Iron Pact Alliance, and Venoa's call for noble families to raise their own Scale Battalions eventually convinced Caligari, Verona, Trento, and Lazio to enlist together.
