Knight of The Eagle – Sycamore

Little memory does Sycamore have of his life before the Golden Griffins. It barely spans back three months prior to his joining. All he could remember was working as one of many servants or slaves to a powerful sorcerer in the fringes of Baldur’s wildlands. His master was cruel, and would often seem to revel in the misery of his servants. Thus himself and those entrapped with him rose up against their former master, ending his life while losing many of their own in the battle. With naught else to remain in the manor for, Sycamore and his colleagues parted in separate ways, aiming to find their true identities or to create new ones.

Sycamore, who was enthralled in the battle against his master found combat to be his true forte, thus he squired for the first knight he came upon: Eryn, a Knight-Errant of The Golden Griffins. Short but fond was Sycamore’s memories of Eryn, for the newly anointed knight found himself skewered by a tree spirit of The Reach Forest after only a few weeks of taking Sycamore under his wing. Sycamore was spared for reasons he did not know, though swore to continue Eryn’s legacy: travelling to the Golden Griffin’s home of Velandria in the Kingdom of Belfrie. There he rose through the ranks swiftly, his mastery of polearms impressing even the Knights above him. Now he has surpassed the rank of his former master, as an anointed Knight of The Eagle of Talon Company. Though seemingly shy or timid when spoken to, Sycamore’s behaviour is quite polarising once weapons are drawn.
