Arturien Denaal's page

Arturien Denaal was born in Dornig. He was the illegitimate first-born son to Lesser Duke Methilious Grang. A fact of which he is currently unaware since his mother took the secret to her grave. His mother had been a well-regarded traveling minstrel and so Arturien, or Artie to his friends, learned the family trade. He became a singer and a musician. When pushed he could even do showy acrobatics.
Life on the road can be dangerous, so Artie picked up fencing. He was uncannily good at learning fencing routines. It came as easily to him as music did. And from then on, while he was never one to start a fight, he would always be the one to end them.

Years passed, and Artie’s mother eventually took ill and died. And with her, went all of Artie’s ambition to be a famous musician. But he found that he still craved fame. He just needed a different path. And after a time it donned on him – swordplay. That’s how he could make his mark. And so Arturien Denaal, son to Rebecca Denaal and Lesser Duke Grang, went South to find his fortune.

Artie became a fixture in the fencing clubs of the Free City of Zobeck. He trained dutifully, using his talents as a musician to fuel his growing swordplay addiction. When he felt he had learned enough he joined a mercenary company. He rose up the ranks relatively well, but soon spotted that others weren’t so well rewarded for their efforts. He flitted from one mercenary group to another, and yet he always seemed to find those who were under-valued.

Artie saw an opportunity. He would form his own mercenary company – the Black Boots. He would recruit those undervalued souls who had been left on the sidelines. In fact to make the deal sweeter, he offered them a partnership, a real partnership. Full and equal shares in the business. Something no mercenary company would ever give any of them. After all, money was nice, but it was fame that Artie truly craved. And surrounded by powerful competent warriors, it was only a matter of time.
