.:Basic Personality:.

When you first met Edric is appears to be a funny and carefree man, who thinks more about ale and women. But once you get to know him better, you soon learn that he respects honour and loyalty above everything else. On the outside he seems like any other peasant but he has a noble past. He never tells many about this past. This is because of his humble nature and his new outlook on life has showed him that titles mean nothing. That a man should be judged by his skills and not about how much money he may have. Edric would be rather known for his character and skills not by a noble family name.

Edric has somewhat of a dislike of people of royal blood. Many times you will hear him saying that their corrupt and power hungry and all the same. But if he ever met one that was different he might change his mind. Edric has a very trusting nature, that if he gets to know you better he opens up and doesn’t mind opening about his past and is willing to empathy with others. Edric always has a sense of humor and cheerful nature no matter what kind of danger he might be in. He’s one of those guys that don’t let anything get to him, and if it does he doesn’t really show it, he’ll just joke it off.

When Edric was born, he was taken into the care of a carefully chosen nurse, who cared for him till he was around 2. At this point, he had learned to walk and even learning to talk. After this he returned mom were he was cared for by his mother and and nurses until he was around 7 years of age.

Herny had wonted his son to become a knight before he was even born. It was normal for boys to become a knight, well those that could make it. In order to be chosen to become a knight, a test had to be conducted on them to decide whether they were suitable for the task or not. In order to be chosen, a kid had to be tall for his age, strong and extremely healthy. Edric was chosen and he became a “Page”. Then he was handed off to a lord, most likely a knight with whom he would frequently trained the young Edric by assigning him diverse tasks in or outside the castle. During the time that Edric was a page his brother Rowan was born.

In order for Edric to become a Squire at the age of 13 or 14, he had to have shown promise in fighting. Edric stayed with the former knight who had taught him about knighthood since he was a young Page. During this period of time, Edric handled the knight's weapons and was appointed to clean them and help the knight in any way he could. By the time Edric was at the age of 15, he had to start wearing an armor to begin getting used to the weight. When he became at the age of 15 or 16 Michale had become a squire and began training. He learned learn to fight and ride and to read and write. And he learned the code of honor, chivalry. At the age of 18, when Edric's lord knew that he was worthy, he was knighted, and received the tile “sir”. And he would serve his lord in military services.

A few years past and Edric;s father had been sent home eary from the way becuase of a wound he had gotten to the leg. No longer able to fight, Herny would spend the rest of his years running the land he was given. In do time Edric took his father's place and went off to war, where he would spent most of the rest of his young life, not knowing of what he would come back to after so many years.

During the years that Edric was off in the war, brother Rowan was learning to become a knight. His teacher or lord had been the same knight who had tought Edric so many years ago, and he did not see the young boy ready to become a knight. All Rowan cared about was the fame and the gold, he became more greedy and angered by how many people liked his brother over him. Shadowed by his brother, Rowan made his mind up, he was going to better then his brother, each waking moment he grew more anger towards his brother, and started joining with all the worng people.

When Edric returned from the war, all was welcomed back with honours and Rowan was just rushed aside.
