The reason for this was Tripp's father, Charles Worthington decided to forgo the family legacy, and build up the family empire instead, severely disappointing Tripp's Grandfather, the 19th TalonKnight.

He felt proud and disappointed at his father, not understanding why he chose "the cowards'" way out. Tripp felt like everyone should know, and that he should somehow honor his ancestor's legacy. It was then when he started bragging about what he read in his father's books and journals to his classmates at school. While he friends scoffed at Tripp's wild stories, the school Guidance Counsellor took notice and decided to learn more about the so called "TalonKnight".
