(WIP)Man At Arms Lord Talis DeMorte, the Jackalope of the Desert Winds and its first Corsair
I don't find myself to be a weird person. Why? Do you?
We have a stormtrooper over here with a bow, Storm Wolfcaller
Flurbography
I lived the life of splendor, like any of the elvish realms. Then war came to the realms and man, dwarves and elves alike were drove into a hasty alliance. My life was thrown into disarray when I was taken from the Elves corps and thrown in with a forward company of elite dwarves where I met a life long friend and ally. I learned that archery is not the only rout of an elf and that I must adapt to overcome obstacles. During a small but vicious battle I was wounded in the knee and given a head injury. By luck I survived the battle field and after a few tense hours of fighting was able to escape to safety. Upon returning home from war I ran into my dwarven friend while adventuring. We joined up and had many adventures in the flatlands before a drunk southerner took his life in a wagon accident. I soon there after decided I needed a change of scenery and went back to the home village of my dwarven friend. After finding that there was little need for adventurers or adventures to be had I got on my horse and headed back east until i came upon a place known as Skystone.
There I met Sion, a scout in Skystone while working as security for a tavern, who pointed me towards a group of adventurers. I decided that I would try to make a new life among these people. I attempted to prove myself when some of the member of Skystone headed to Rivers End to assist with a monster problem and successfully utilized my mercenary ways to avoid being resurrected by the necromancer except for on one occasion where they attempted to make me dance for them and i was thoroughly embarrassed by a Jester. Upon returning I was approached by Warbar, man at arms to Baronet Squire Kyra Kadais, Squire to Arch Duke Sir Duffer Cole "The Miner" with an offer to become his page so that he may teach me and I may improve myself in battle and in aspects of A&S and I accepted and was belted on March 9th, 2014, a page of Warbar. Shortly after being belted I was asked by the Current monarchy to take up the position of Captain of the Guard for Skystone and I accepted the position. I plan on taking full advantage of the learning tools at my disposal and proving to WarBar that i am worthy to be his Page.
Everything was going well but still minds never excel so i left the line of the miner and made my own path. During a splendid day of adventure i met a knight who gained my respect and i approached him to see if he would teach me. He granted me my page belt and i continued on with my training. As i prepared to set out for the gathering of the clans in the land of Dragonspine i was given my belt. It was an atrocious thing but i wore it with pride. It was bright yellow and as wide as my hand and could be seen across the field in a heavy melee shrouded in a dense fog but i took pride in it. As i fought on the field at the gathering of the clans, I found myself set upon by pirates. Yes Pirates that far inland. They bore a two headed black Phoenix upon a gray field. They were doing something that none of the others were doing, fighting as a team in a shield wall. I retrieved my spear to counteract their own and set in upon them. The first few exchanges ended the same with their shield-men tying me up and then their flankers closing in to finish me. I came up with the idea to turn their tactic against them. I talked a few shield-men into crashing their right side and pushing their boards away from me. I had my moment as their spear turned to assist his shipmates with their aggressive enemies. I took a powerful step forward and leveled my spear as I turned my hips around and with my left hand plunged my spear into my foes ribs. He quickly crumbled and his team surrounded him. I felt kind of bad about it but was reassured that it was just a good hit. They carried their teammate off the field and the fighting disappated up until court started.
As I stood listening to the Monarchy's speak i couldn't help but think man these folks are long winded. As i looked around i noticed two of the pirates i had met before. From conversations with others
