Persona
Curteis FitzOsbern is an 11c Norman, from the fortress town of Abergavenny, on the Welsh border in England. Through the poor political choices of his older siblings, his family's lands and titles were lost while Curteis was studying abroad. Faced with likely execution if he returned home, Curteis commenced wandering the current middle ages. His travels took him across much of central Europe, through the Orient, and on to the Far East. Returning to the Holy Lands by sea, he became enamored with the life of the sailor, and commenced studying the Art of Defense to combat the occasional brigand. Currently, Curteis is the Captain of the Horizon's End, a 15c ship of exploration and his own 'freelance navy' (franchises available).
