Adam was born in a small farming village to a simple working man and his wife. Life was good until he was about 6, when his father was involved in a revolutionary plot against a Lord who attempted to take over the village for his own gain. His father was named and betrayed by the rest of his comrades and send to the guillotine for his crimes; Adam's mother fled with him.
☆☆☆
The land they came from was a harsh one, and she had little choice: Adam grew up in the brothel his mother worked at from that point on. He began to show signs of troubling behaviour early on, stealing and annoying the local law enforcement almost daily. His favourite thing to do growing up was to listen to the stories of bards who would come into the taverns and tell stories of brave, charismatic heroes with sexy mysterious eyes and swooning princesses.
☆☆☆
In his late teens Adam worked for a while in the brothel. It was while doing this he met Heidi, his first true love and partner in crime, for a while. She was a rich girl, the daughter of a distant royal relation, but desired the company of someone rougher. It was Heidi who first put the idea in Adam's head to go after the man who had killed his father.
☆☆☆
After a year of planning, Adam found the house and the room, and got in one night without a single issue. He held his pistol over the sleeping Lord's head, took a deep breath, and...couldn't do it. He couldn't kill somebody. And then he lost his moment -- guards rushed in, the Lord woke up, and he was tossed from the window in a fight, only to fall onto a metal spiked grate beneath, slicing open his chin and neck and leaving him suspended until Heidi came looking for him.
☆☆☆
The next few years would eventually become a blur. From not being able to speak, to numbing his pain with whatever pill he could find, to his inevitable split from Heidi...Adam laid in gutters several times a week and wished for his death. It did not come.
☆☆☆
Finally, desperately, he pulled himself from the hole that he had fallen into. And he made a decision: He was going to be the hero from his childhood stories. He was going to be a dashing Highwayman. So he got himself some engraved guns, a sexy outfit and a horse. And began.
☆☆☆
His twenties have been spent mostly stealing, sleeping with people and trying out new drinks. A healthy way to live? Probably not. But a fun one? Definitely. He's healthy. Don't ask about it. He's fine.

Adam lives with Nathaniel on his farm after he moves in in Priorities. He made friends with Maea and Lucas. Lucas took him to see the barrier in bro you fucking shot me, where he fucking shot him.

Adam pissed off Ludo in Tripping Along by asking it why it didn't just kill The Voice right out. He won his first trial in the Cloister in Cloister of Trials: Adam vs Are, but was knocked out in the next round.

Adam met Safrin in Answers In The Stars. He also attended the festival of Lights and put up a lantern for his father in {SWE} Festival of Lights.

After Lucas died, Adam inherited the Devil's Advocate's guild. He agreed to date Peter in Like a Thief in the Night. He rallied his new guildmembers and gained a couple new recruits in The New Era. For Longnight he stayed in the MHG, where he teased Amalia and Deimos in Rating out of Ten.
