The Executioner
Name: Ser Guillaume de Orléans, the Mad Knight
Personality: Stern and uncompromising. Bitter, cynical, has a code of chivalry that has long since become twisted and warped. Has a tendency to go on screaming rants when pushed too far.
Backstory: A knight of the Seventh Crusade in the early 1250's, when the Crusade ultimately went tits-up he was "slain" on the battlefield and left for dead, abandoned by both his comrades and his enemies. However, despite the gaping gut wound, he held on and attempted to crawl to safety. For three days, he held out, struggling to survive, praying that his God or his King would come to rescue him, but none came. On the night of the fourth day, just as he was about to succumb to heat and thirst, he came across a stranger whom he begged for aid. The stranger turned out to be a vampire, who offered him more salvation than his God or country ever did. However, having been a knight following the code of chivalry for so long, he knew very little else, and so resolved himself to be a knight against the "false church," following a code of honor that superficially resembles the old code of chivalry, but really just provides outlets for cruelty, despite how much he deludes himself into thinking that he's all doing it out of a sense of honor.
Eventually he meet Lord Vasquez on the battlefield, and despite the spanish mercenary being younger he had great talent for Blood Magic and Flesh Shaping. Ser Guillaume was defeated and forcefully transformed into a half human-half bat monster until his will was sanity were broken. Now he serves Vasquez with absolute devotion.
