Bastian & Castor Wolfhart

“If a soul could have two bodies, Bastian and Castor shared one soul. They stood beside each other. They lived. They laughed. They were boys together. They share the honor of old men, but died young boys.”  

The brothers Bastian and Castor Wolfhart are the youngest sons of Erik and Marie Wolfhart, and the brothers of Faust Wolfhart. Bastian being the older of the two, clever even for his age, but weak and fragile of body, never able to form his physique to that of a warrior. Three years after his birth Castor was born, stronger by far even at a young age but lacking in brains. The two complimented each other's weakness to near perfection, and in a fight they were able to hold their own against overwhelming odds.

Bastian being weak and fragile compensated this by learning the ways of magic, and became skilled. Despite this his father, Erik Wolfhart, commanded Faust to train him and make a warrior out of the young boy. But in secret Faust aided his brother in learning the ways of magic, while training in the use of the sword, combining the two. Not knowing the ways of magic, Faust brought tomes of magic so that his brother could learn. Bastian didn’t master the sword, but still became able to wield a sword with some skill, he was viewed as lesser by their father, but his siblings still loved him and protected him.

Castor on the other hand was a peerless warrior, at a young age he and Faust trained and the two of them were equally matched. His preferred fighting style was with great weapons relying on dealing massive blows before his foes. Often he would go for the first strike to disorient and distract so others could finish his work. For all his might he was not a very bright individual, often lured into traps in fights and putting himself in reckless danger for lack of thought. Castor liked fighting for the purpose of fighting, not caring for glory or what was right, he knew this and because of this he would never fight without his siblings at his side.

The night of the tragedy that claimed their lives the brothers was found next to each other. Bastian died with a clean sword in his hand, slashed across the throat. Castor was soaked in blood with a broken sword in each hand, his death wound however was in the back. The brothers shared their tomb as they shared their lives - together.
