the Brave
Honorable Bastard of Knight - Levy Who Fought To Let Others Flee
This companion hails from Vlandia.
Companion Story
Born out of wedlock, 'the Brave' had no lands to inherit so he sees his life as a burden. You could say he's in-between jobs.
In Summary
"I am the son of a knight, but not a son born in wedlock. I was raised in my father's house, but when he was taken prisoner and ransomed, he had to sell much of what he owned, and therefore could no longer support me. I decided to set out to make my own name, if my family could not give me one. It is a common tale."
