Armstrong, the oldest by a few months, is set to be patriarch once Soren passes, and thereby remained on the [[East Continent]] while two of his brothers emigrated. He was ennobled at a time of terrible wars on [[Fontan]], facing five powerful enemies bent on its destruction and embroiled in a civil war, as one of those enemies was the seditious Duke of Fontan itself! (The tyrant of the [[Confederacy of Fontan]]) He was a knight of [[East Continent/Ashforth|Ashforth]], under Duke Duncan, then served Duke Niles as a knight of [[East Continent/Karbala|Karbala]], was the Count of [[East Continent/An Najaf|An Najaf]] for a long time until he resigned and returned to military service. After his resignation, he became a knight of [[East Continent/Oberndorf|Oberndorf]] under Count Requiem, now under Count Aulus Severus and returned to the army. Armstrong commands the fierce and strong [[Ironsides Family/Armstrong/Roughnecks|Roughnecks]] who used to march with the [[Fontan/Fontan Rangers|Fontan Rangers]] and the [[Fontan/Lions|Lions]] and now marches with the [[Fontan/Fontan Strike Regiment|Fontan Strike Regiment]]. Lord Armstrong was the Marshal of the FSR for some time until other duties forced him to resign.

''Westmoor''

Recognized as the Hero of the Democracy, many tales are told of Armstrong's youth and heroic deeds. He has already become a living legend for the people of his home region of Dulbin, and stories told of him are spread throughout Fontan and the East Continent.

As well as being a Hero on the battlefield, Armstrong is also a prominent, if not foundational, member of the [[Elementalis]] Academy. Along with Elder Elberan, he was instrumental with the creation of the curriculum and the structure of the Academy. He is the Guild Master of the Elementalis Academy in An Najaf, an Elder of the Academy, and a [[Elementalis/Documents/Masters Compositions/Theory of Heat Generation|Master of the Fire Element]].
+
''Fontan''
  
−
In addition to being an Elder in the Elementalis Academy, the Hero of Democracy is one of the foundational members of the [[Invigilators of the Fourth Law]] guild in Fontan. The guild's purpose is to oppose the forces of witchcraft and spellcasting. Armstrong loathes and fears the mysterious power of the occult and has several times tried to defeat it (including leading the Second Accursed Committee in Oberndorf which rounded up thirteen peasant suspects). With luck and righteous judgement, as an Inquisitor, he will cleanse Fontan of evil.

After his rehabilitation plan succeeded in the region of An Najaf, the Hero of Democracy finally realized his dream to build the [[Congress of Democracy]]. A terrible day occurred in the life of the Hero of Democracy when he was betrayed by Count [[Ogren Family/Jon Paul|Jon Paul Ogren]] who destroyed the Congress of Democracy. The Hero of Democracy went through several erratic reactions finally to settle down and bring the issue to court. [[Congress of Democracy/Civil Suit|The Congress of Democracy versus Count Jon Paul Ogren]] begun to decide the matter, the court was presided over by Supreme Justice [[Dubhaine Family/Moira|Moira Dubhaine]]. Supreme Justice Moira's verdict was much the same as Supreme Justice Duncan's.

In retaliation for an attack on An Najaf by [[Caligus]] during an unannounced cease fire, the Hero of Democracy formed his own gang called the [[Ironsides Family/Armstrong/Headbusters|Headbusters Gang]]. Their sole purpose was to cause as much damage to Caligus as possible, either by destroying the raiding units, or invading enemy territory. Unfortunately for the enraged Count, a peace treaty ceased his desires to assault Caligus. Instead, his army became a dormant force, waiting for the day to unleash vengeance.

Certain private moments are intentionally not made public to maintain the image of the Hero of Democracy. Moments such as his consistent defeats in attempting to become Chancellor of Fontan, and his fruitless attempt to become the General, promising he would capture Avamar in one month if elected. Also such tragedies as his friendship with Lord Jon Paul Ogren. These moments and much more are unpublished.
