Brief history:
Aethwulf was born to Kano Syms and Liza Irvin. His father was a knight and served in the army for mostly his entire life. Aethwulf grew up on a small area of land his father was gifted for serving his Lord. His father would always tell Aeth stories about his life during wars and the massive battles he fought in. Some of the stories were made up by his Father just for Aeths entertainment however.
Kano was strict in Aeth to make sure he never took things for granted. Eventually when Aethwulf turned eight years old his father started to teach Aeth how to properly act and behave as a noble. He taught him basic manners as well as how to treat those of a higher status with respect as this would be a good way to earn a respectable reputation for himself.
Kano also taught Aethwulf about Christianity and how to behave as a true Christian. He would always pull him up on small things to remind him of what he should be doing...
-The family would be sat at a table with a large roasted pig and other foods on it-
Kano- *He would notice Aetheulf about to start eating straight away* "Aethwulf. What do you say before eating?"
Aethwulf- "Sorry father. *He'd bow his head whilst sat down and say a small prayer to himself. He's then raise his head back up and look to his father again*"thank you for the food father."
*Kano would smile at Aethwulf*
Kano-"now you may eat"
-The family would the begin to eat their food-
When Aethwulf turned ten years old his father taught him how to fight as he was to become a knight one day as well. Kano took this extremely serious and would go into lots of detail on how to properly fight.
-Kano and Aeth would be outside their house on some flat land-
*Kano would throw a short spear to Aeth*
*Aeth would fail to catch the spear as he was not prepared*
Kano- "Always pay attention Aeth you never know when a surprise could happen."
*Aethwulf would nod and pick up the spear from the floor*
Aeth- "Ok"
-Kano "Right, the spear is the most common weapon used. Do not underestimate it. Usually you will have a shield if not always have one when using a spear. However I wish for you to practice blocking without a shield"
-Kano would show Aeth simple scenarios of an attack and would show how to block the.-
-Aethwulf would imitate his fathers movements as practice-
-The would then practice with other weapons and wth a shield-
During his training Aethwulf mastered the use of a sword and shield. This would then be the common weaponry he would use.
Aethwulf trained every day to master all forms of fighting techniques. Eventually came his sixteenth birthday. On his birthday he was to leave home to join the army and do his service. So he said his goodbyes to his family and went off to join the local Lords army.
*Kano would give his son a tight hug and say to him*
Kano- "You remember all your training out there. You're a fine warrior. Go make a name for yourself"
*he would release Aethwulf*
Aethwulf- "I will father. And I'll make you proud whist doing so" *He would show a small smile and then give his mother a hug.*
-Aethwulf would then pick up his equipment and climb into his horse and ride to the local lords encampment-
Aethwulf would serve until he turned twenty four years old. During this time he proved his worth as a noble soldier and was told he may take his leave from service. He was then told if two areas in which he could own land. Out of the two options given he thought that good fortune would come up near Hadrian's wall.
When it was made official and the land was gifted to him he thanked his Lord and said his goodbyes to the friends he had made. He then mounted his horse and took the gear he had on him and made his journey up to his property with a few of his friends which had finished their service. Aethwulf has just reached the border of his lands and his story is about to begin…
