Lucian Albrecht is an archetypal honourable Mantonian warrior™. His interest in history borders on the obsessive. He declares his atheism in the face of Gods, and thus can be regarded as somewhat self-destructive. Other indicators of psychological instability include a tendancy to taunt people who are breaking his fingers; entering combats when already heavily wounded, carrying a sword that, frankly, is quite the most disturbing piece of personal armament I have seen in my entire professional career. Lucian should be sectioned immediately.

Lucian's relationship with his magic sword has been strained further by using it to power an ancient seal and then going off to battle with another sword.

Lucian is also mildly peeved by the fact that his is now decisively outranked by everyone in his party.

Lucian is a Warrior Adventurer, who it presently serving with the Knights of the Silver Cross. He is on his Knight Quest, to recover ancient texts relating to the orgin of the Royal Order of the Dragon from underneath the Dragon Desert. He has located some, but they were possessed by Shen-Akrath and he has yet to excavate a putative second location.

His current location is classified.


Biography

Lucian Albrecht was born in the small fishing and farming community of Merrish, on the west coast of Mantoni. He attended the school run there by the Royal Order of the Bear, but was eventually accepted by the Royal Order of the Dragon, an impressive feat for a commoner. (His parents run a large apple and pork farm).

He excelled in two-handed sword training at the Citadel of the Silver Dragon and, upon promotion to the rank of Warrior, was assigned to the Red Dragon cavalry sect, with whom he saw action on the front with Karantas. His assignment to the KotSC was unexpected, but he has performed well enough to achieve promotion to the Dragon Guard.

He remains an expert swordsman, presently wielding an Aethleas Sword, although he is the designated bearer of the blade Onostrothorin, currently powering the Great Seal of Aethleas. In addition, he is a skilled tactician and strategist.

His hobbies include historical research, archaeology, and philosophy. He is a terrible liar. He has one sibling, Catharine, who is a member of the Royal Order of the Unicorn.


Fun Facts

The name 'Lucian' is the masculine form of the name of the Goddess of Luck, Lucia. The wisdom of naming one's child this is very much a matter for debate.
