Otto Burgundy

---

As soon as I turned 18 years old, my father told it was time to serve as Knight. My family (Burgundy) originated from Dimwood (Perdan)(East Island). My oldest brother had allready started his military service, my time was coming. I choose the wise and mighty warrior realm Avalon to serve because we were friends with the Jorvik Family and they had told me many heroic tales about the realm.

Comming To Avalon

Directly after my birthday celebration, I went on a boat on the open sea in search of Avalon. As a noble I studied the many history books and public boards in the capitals University. I soon tasted the blood of the ugly pigs as I call them. Idiot undead hordes and monsters. I had a great time fighting these and soon I swore my allegiance to Judge Jelpot, the Baron of Wilwau. I fought many times the ugly pigs here and enjoyed it fully.

My Glorious Piggie Battle

Near the end of 1006. We had a small invasion of Monsters and Undead Hordes. It was a bad time, nobody in the region could reach Wilwau in time. Only me had to face up. My and my men (27 fully trained special forces) travelled in haste to the region. We knew we were outnumbered 3 to 1. But I had sworn to defend the town and its population. My men knew that they would probably not survive this glorious batlle but we were soldiers in the mighty Avalon Realm and no one questioned each others dedication. We fought the pigs 2 times in a row and won each time and so, succesfully liberated the region. Even General Thorson was amazed that the mission was a succes.

Guardians Of The Magical Herbs

Only 3 of my men survived but we were proud. As we were travlling back to the capital, we needed to go via Norjke. My soldiers were in pain as they were wounded. I visited the guild house some people told me about. I became a member since these herbs helped my men and I to recover. But it was not over yet, as we stayed there to rest, another horde of monsters killed my last men. Altough we won, my proud unit was no longer. But I gained enough honor and prestige to hire many cavalry and so I did. But would always remember becoming a member of the Guild and would soon prove my dedication.

Ippetimbal

As I served the realm whithout any question and to the maximum of my strength and capabilities. The high council saw this off course and after time, they rewarded me in a big celebration on the mountain hills in Ippetimbal and named me Baron of Ippetimbal and Knight of Wudenkin. My family was very proud and I promised Allarion, our great chancellor that I would give my life for the region and realm. As member of the guild, I off course founded the second Guild house in Ippetimbal as well as two other usefull buildings.

Founding The Guards Of Ippetimbal, Becoming A cavalier

As commander of Ippetimbals forces and Knights, I had established a small command center in the moutain tops of Ippetimbal. My brother Siebe and Trader Thorry of the Jorvik Family swore their allegiance to me. It was time to carry the region on to the next level. My knights spend their gold and time to establish their estates and so did I. The effect was immediate, Ippetimbal had shown no more red lines in the daily region reports. It was managed well. But Military, we could still do better. I requested my Brother Siebe to recruit Infantry trained in Ippetimbal, which were the most expensive and best Infantry troops of the entire realm. He named them "Guards Of Ippetimbal", allready fought numerous battles and still it is a devastating force. Offcourse, as Baron, I would need also a strong force. This is why I changed class and finally after many years of family tradition and training, I became a cavalier and recruited the best horsemen to fight also in honour of Ippetimbal. As baron of a region near the borders of our realm and far from the capital, I am required to stay most of my time managing the regionstats as they would otherwise drop extremely fast. But this allows me to send all my gold to my Brother Siebe and giving him the chance to create a massive infantryforce and fight every battle with his maximum potential and never in need of a long refit.

Surprisingly strong and constant results in elections

Since our last election, I noticed that my percentages are going up and have been very good (top 3 for 3 positions) the last few elections. As I had not the intention to run for any position, my thoughts have changed and maybe in the future I will go for a more political career. I see these good results as a compliment for my work and dedication to this realm. I thank the people that have this confidence in me and I will not let them down.
