McDugan Family/Fredrich
He began his career on June 9, 2006 as the first family member starting a career as a noble. Due to respect for what his family built and his want to defend it, he joined the ranks of Minas Ithil nobles. After getting his first experiences of combat in the waning days of the war against Eston, he decided that the best way to lead his troops was to treat them as equals. With that, he chose to become a hero and fight along-side his men, share experiences, and work together instead of leading from the rear like most.
However, he didn't stay in Minas Ithil for long. When the war against Abington came about and the colony of Kybcyell was created, he knew that he was needed to defend it and fight-off the Abington threat. Amazed by his enthusiasm and bravery, Chief Steward (King) Hottori appointed him as the High Marshall when Gregor was captured.
After spending several years in Ash Sea Islands to keep an eye on Abington, he heard of a war breaking out in is home against Norland. The first time, he did nothing after learning of the diplomatic reasons for it. However, when Norland attacked for a second time, he knew that it was time for him to return home.
The war carried on in a virtual stalemate. Norland would advance and be defeated, then Minas Ithil would reclaim what was lost, but be defeated during their own advance. Fredrich was always on the front lines during these battles, obeying his orders, knowing that the vikings must be held in the north to protect his family in the south-east. Unfortunately, during one battle in Atamara/Winwich, he was overwhelmed. The armies were evenly matched, which let his confidence get the best of him. He pushed the advance too far into the enemy's line and was surrounded with only one other unit nearby. Seeing their leader fall, Fredrich ignored his nearly broken arm and rushed in, hoping to save his fellow noble's life. He did, and killed many of the Norlanders around him, but there were too many. As the fatal wound was given, Fredrich thought only of how he had given his realm and his family all he could, but that it was not enough. Not knowing were he was headed or what gods he would meet, slipped from this world, and on to the next.
Some claimed that one of the undead that fought in the battle afterward had a style very similar to Fredrich's. Perhaps he needed one last chance to make things right, or he found a way to continue defending what was close to him.
Peronality
- He always trys to do what's right. Of course, if he thinks that evil must be done for the greater good, then he will make that sacrifice. But how far is too far?
- He greatly trusts and respects his leaders, believing that evil people would never last long in power. Of course, unless the realm as a whole is evil and requires destruction. Rarely will he question those in charge, and expects the same respect in return.
Erman
That is the name of his captain, recruited soon after he returned home from Ash Sea Islands. He is experienced, but has a phobia of logs and other similar wood products. When this, combined with his determination to walk only on the road, caused Fredrich's unit to miss a major battle, Fredrich forced him to lead the charges from now on.
