Silesian Family/Caris
Caris, known as Silesian in Atamara, was born to a Celt knight. As the only child, she was raised as a boy. She learnt how to use a sword and a bow. She was also an excellent horse rider. When she was 16, her father arranged her marriage with Sir Winfred of Slough. Caris didn't however quite enjoyed the perspective of being married to an old and obese man. Having quite strong character and boy's training, she left her father a short note and secretly left her home. Fate brought her finally to Vornion in Atamara.
In Atamara
Soon after arriving to Vornion, she learnt that her cousin, Merthin of Grabina was a newly knighted soldier in Cagilan army. Merthin was however heading into a war, so they could not meet. Caris was never afraid of taking life in her own hands. Soon after, she was made a Dame of Nida and became a vassal of the Duchess of Nida, Lady Renee Quasath.
Military Career
Caris joined the Ered Luin Guardians, an army designated as the home guard of Cagilan Empire. The battles she fought were against monsters or undead ravaging the plains of Cagil. On more than one occasion she learnt about monsters in provinces, belonging to allied Carelia. She volunteered to go there and helped to get rid of monsters. It is worth of noticing, as it was her initiative, sanctioned by her liege. She was also active scouting and fighting monsters and undead in her own realm. On more than one occasion she acted as a leader, organizing and encouraging fellow nobles.
She made her name by sending very detailed scout reports. Besides the actual report, they contained a narrative summary of the situation, so the military leaders could get a quick overview, without the need to browse through the whole report.
Major Battles
Most of the battles Caris took part were relatively small, so only significant battles are shown here.
