Andy was introduced to Amtgard in April of 2007 as a senior in high school. He was a common sight at the [[Crimson Sanctum]] throughout his senior year and the following summer until he moved to Seattle to attend the University of Washington. Then, he took a year long hiatus while he lived in the dorms, largely due to his inability to get to a park. As he completed his education, Staccatto fought regularly with the good folk of the [[Inland Ocean]] where he took ruthless beatings from the vastly superior fighters. During the summer months he occasionally fought at various parks in Southern California such as [[Eldritch Hills|Twig-on-Hill]], the [[Crimson Sanctum]], [[Silver Sun]], [[Siar Geata]]. Now that he has graduated, he is faced with the decision to remain in Seattle with the lands that shaped him as an Amtgarder, or to return to Los Angeles and lend a hand building the community there.

Maestro Staccatto Toccata, of the Inland Ocean, under the Northern Lights

”That's right: we're actually an illuminati organization bent on world domination... through wenching."

Flurby Character Biography

Staccatto has spent the bulk of his life either being a rich bard or a poor bard. Really, the difference between the two isn't that big: the food and women are generally more tasteless for your average impoverished minstrel, but it's really all the same in the end. Having spent most of his life in pursuit of coin and cleavage, Staccatto stumbled into the Crimson Sanctum where he played many concerts, made some good friends and ruthlessly ridiculed everyone who wronged him. After some years of this, the young scoundrel grew restless and left for greener pastures (and less chaste women!).

Having finished with the perpetually sunny Crimson Sanctum, Staccatto journeyed northward to the rain-soaked lands of the Northern Lights. He eventually settled in the port town of Inland Ocean where he quickly began making a name for himself as a loudmouthed troublemaker, er, musician and storyteller. After years of calling the local monarchy a bunch of sluts and rapists, he was finally recognized by the populace as a Master Bard. Ever since that day, Staccatto has been milking that title to get free drinks and score with wenches while avoiding work all together.

... What did you expect? He's a bard. That's what bards do.
