Halforth was an honourable Pirate Privateer until during the Retaking of Mirith the Royal Sceptre identified him as N'eroth, heir to the throne. Although he seemed rather surprised by that turn of events, it is known that his own words many moons earlier were "even a Privateer could be King." He first appeared in the year 438, fond of drinking and asking travellers to join his crew, naming Captain Jass as his Pirate Mentor. Some are known to have followed such as Razan and Luciella.
