BIOGRAPHY
over 30 years before the war's end, a young Mercenary from a foreign land entered the war under the name Mad Rampage. He introduced himself as an warrior outside either team. Despite being human he would raid both sides stealing what he pleased. Then he dis appeared and reappeared under the banner of the Hybrid army. After three years his loyalty to coin outweighed his commitment to the king and he switched sides. Eventually falling in love with one of the Florence maidens. He quickly rose through the ranks eventually after the end of the war the Mad Rampage became Sir Madra. He became a loyal knight to the king of Florence and with his help won the hand of his maiden.
The maiden would then proceed to give birth to three darling sons 20 years later. The first they named Jango, the second Oricon and the last Adrian. At early ages the brothers watched over each other. Due to their fathers position in society life was never hard. The trio got away with more then the average child and like most they loved the thrill of being in trouble. As they grew older the trio who would steal pastries from the bakery began to change. At the age of ten they all began training under their father. They would be warriors of the King like him. They were shipped off to the foreign and savage lands of their father's birth. They were taken in by the school of Mera. Here they would be trained to be great warriors like their fathers before them. Adrian, Oricon, and Jango instantly broke apart under the harsh training of the school. To start their training hey were trained in all forms of combat. Although slowly their choices were narrowed.
At the age of 15 or 16 in Jango's case, the boys were given their final test. For their final tests the brothers would be sent off. The first time that the trio had interacted since their entrance into the academy. The three were sent with two days worth of food to split between the 3 of them. No weapons, no horses, only their wits and what they had between the three of them. Their mission was to reach an old hermit atop a mountain that separated Florence and the Meran lands. Through the deserts that surrounded the academy they marched. Jango was the first to begin to fall behind, but Oricon kept him on track. After 3 long days the trio had reached the base of the mountain where they found a group of mercenaries. Men who had failed the tests, but sought to earn their rights to return to the academy for a second chance. The tired brothers were dehydrated, staved, and unarmed. So the mercenaries allowed them till sunset to prepare for the battle. Jango took to his wits and began setting traps and hunting food. Oricon began readying an instrument to fight with. However Adrian continued his mission, one of few who do. He reached the peak and found an older man meditating on a stone. Adrian and the man spoke and the man took the young warrior to his home and together they crafted the youngest Madra a fine set of dual swords.
Whith his swords complete the hermit patted his shoulder and was released to go combat the mercs who awaited him. Adrian with a young horse burst down the mountainside. He found Oricon locking a tree branch to an axe. The young warrior went to work devastating the 3 of the 8 failures. Although the fourth a smarter man then the duo slashed the young swordsman off his horse. With another slash the man sliced down the Adrian's forehead and his cheek. Adrian would live but his skills were crippled for the rest of the battle. Eventually the duo had won and Oricon finished his trial while Adrian recaptured his horse. As Oricon returned the duo began searching for the last of their litter. They followed his tracks and found that he had left the mountainside. With help from the wise hermit the duo returned to find the school ablaze and their instructors dead on the ground. They watched the fire vowing to carry on in the schools name. However when the blaze had died down Adrian approached while Oricon watched over the steeds. Adrian searched the remains for his estranged brother but only heard a grunt from behind him. He turned to see Oricon fall forward and arrow dug into his back. Madra drew his sword and realized who the attacker was. Adrian wounded as he was still tracked down the archer. He lost him however as they neared the border of Florence. Adrian decided that as the last Madra child alive he would return Oricon's body for a pyre. A parade was given to the returning hero, and the fallen son. They paraded about the city ending with Adrian bowing before the King while Sir Madra and his maiden took care of their fallen heir. The ceremony went swell until Adrian was told to rise. As Adrian did the snap of a bow string went off and in the next moment Sir Madra was in front of the king and arrow lodged in his chest. Adrian vowed to his father he would track down the killer. The king agreed and Adrian set off. he found the killer in a bar drinking away his shame. The shame that Jango Madra had been the man who had murdered his father. Adrian captured the bastard in his drunken state and he was brought before the king. Adrian was places at the king's right side when the conviction was given and Adrain was the one who decided that his fallen brother should be hanged for his wrong doings.
The Madra name was dragged through the mud for the next two years. Adrian did his best but words spread faster about his brother then his actions. Although at the age of 29 the knight would be brought before the king once more. The king had a proposition to take a spot as an emissary to the town of Braedon. He would be placed on the council and made part of the Aristocracy and for the first few months in town he had begun to make a small reputation about the town.
Skills/Magic
Due to his family bloodline Madra was forced to craft his own weapon as a part of his final test. Due to his lack of left sided vision and his slow reflexes he chose not to behold a dagger or a bow. His strength lacked slightly so he chose to go with a less brute like weapon. He crafter a set of swords that are can be made one by putting them side by side or remain two halves of a single entity. They are stream lines and symbols are carved across the cross guard. They are from the Madra's original home and translate to "Always conduct yourself to bring honor to your family, country, and school." He is quite talented with the twin blades, despite his blindness on the left. He can even use them to do tricks to entertain young children. Although this has only come with practice. He is a very talented combatant even to the extent of instilling his opponents with fear. (Only truly happened on one occasion)
