• Biography

  Quint was born to Orlis (Wind Jackal) and Hirmina Verginix. He was the youngest in a family of six boys; his brothers were Lucius, Centix, Murix, Pellius, and Martilius. However, he lost most of his family at an early age when Wind Jackal's evil quartermaster, Turbot Smeal, outraged that Wind Jackal ruined a profitable deal he had arranged and burning with a desire to take control of his captain's sky ship, set fire to The Western Quays, destroying an enormous number of buildings, including Wind Jackal's palace, and killing Quint's mother and five brothers. Quint managed to escape, Wind Jackal arrived just in time to find him. Since then, Quint suffered a great fear of open flames. He spent a great deal of time aboard his father's sky ship, the Galerider.
  
  Quint took part in the Battle of the Great Sky Whale He boarded with the second wave of pirates and stole High Leaguemaster Marl Mankroyd's precious black diamond cargo. Then he and the pirates liberated the slaves keeping the ship's four flight-rocks warm, causing the Great Sky Whale to hurtle into Open Sky. Later, Wind Jackal gave Quint his Sky Pirate name, Cloud Wolf, a name he kept secret until he became a captain himself.
  
  Wind Jackal brought Quint to Sanctaphrax to become the apprentice of the Most High Academe, Linius Pallitax. He and Linius's daughter, Maris, initially didn't get along very well, but the two of them eventually became great friends, drawn together by a desire to learn what Linius is doing in secret down in the Stonecomb. They discovered that Linius Pallitax accidentally created a Gloamglozer in the Ancient Laboratory, and had to stop the monster. Quint managed to use Chine to banish the Gloamglozer from Sanctaphrax.
  
  Quint returned to the Knights' Academy and became a Knight Academic-in-waiting. Just as he was about to leave on his own stormchasing voyage, though, Vilnix Pompolnius seized power as Most High Academe and banned all future stormchasing. His dream taken from him, Quint became a sky pirate, using the name Cloud Wolf (which his father had given him years before). Before he set off, he and Maris were married.
  
  After some initial setbacks in sky piracy, Quint and Maris were forced to take up positions on a sky ship captained by a Leaguesman, Multinius Gobtrax. Maris gave birth to Twig aboard Gobtrax's ship, but they were forced to abandon him in a woodtroll village. Maris and Quint returned to Undertown, living in the Bloodoak Tavern, and Quint started making expeditions to the Deepwoods in search of their lost child. After many expeditions which yielded no results, Quint was consumed by guilt and couldn't bear to see Maris again and tell her he didn't find their son, so he eventually stopped going to the Bloodoak Tavern.
  
  Twig was raised by the woodtrolls and eventually reunited with his father. Quint was still too emotionally tormented but took him on as a crew member. When Cloud Wolf went on a Stormchasing voyage, he intended to leave Twig behind with Mother Horsefeather, but Slyvo Spleethe sneaked him aboard for use in his mutinous plan. Quint managed to defeat Spleethe, but his sky ship, Stormchaser, was being battered to pieces in the Great Storm over the Twilight Woods, and he had his crew abandon ship. Piloting the Stormchaser alone, Quint and his sky ship were blown out into Open Sky. Twig came to find him, and they briefly reunited before the Mother Storm claimed Quint, and he, along with his sky ship, faded away to nothing.
