Acquila is the oldest child of the family, only a few years senior to his sister Acquilia, and some 50-odd years ahead of their brother Akylos.
His parents, being power hungry socialites, had grand plans for Acquila (and the rest of their children), pushing him early to excel and show grand ambition. Acquila very much resented this, and quickly became very adept at outmaneuvering his parents and presenting his own wishes as their ideas. He also stepped up as the caretaker of his siblings, trying to shield them from their parents’ ambitions and scorn, in particular young Akylos who seemingly constantly failed to live up to expectation or his older siblings.

Acquila’s amicable and non-judgemental personality along with his prowess in wielding both the Light and weapons made him an excellent choice for diplomatic and leadership missions within the Argent Crusade, inadvertently putting him in high esteem both within the order and in Silvermoon society at large. This has allowed him some leeway with his parents, a network of powerful people and the freedom to work with causes close to his heart.
He has worked in tandem with paladins from all sorts of races and has acted as a diplomat between many factions, working tirelessly to bring about a more peaceful life for as many as possible.
