In 4671, Ljot was born to the Lywatas were tiger clan, which made it's home in the northern mountains of the Sea'ek Tribes area. This clan acted as mercants serving both the tribal humans in the forest south of the mountains, but also the city of Wylinton.

Education and training
At 14, Ljot stopped returning to the mountains and made his permanent home in Wylinton. Here he quickly joined the thieves guild and build a name for himself by having an eye for the valuable and making it into and successfully out of some of the wealthiest homes in the city. He selected his targets based on the abused they heaped on the poor, but he kept his reasons to himself.

Here he moved up the ranks quickly and was selected at the age of 19 to start a guild in Emerald Keep.

Adult life
The thieves guild of Emerald Keep, under the leadership of Ljot not only flourished but began to be appreciated by the people of the city. Strangely, one of the first people to befriend him in this new city was Kath Mondora, the head priestess of Herew. She could clearly see his drive to do good, in spite of his ignoble profession.

In 4693, when the Massacre of Coterii took place, it was this priestess who pointed Dolan Ulfhednar to Ljot's guild for assistance, when he was looking for a way to hide the noble baby, Julian Domgee, he had rescued. She had no idea that this child would be her replacement twenty years later and Ljot could not have imagined that he would have hidden this child as a man as he helped him reclaim his lost throne.
