.:History:
Cole's history is neither tragic nor is it dark. He grew up in a loving family with his mother and father. In his family there have been knights for generations so it was expected of him to become one. His father was a strict man who loved him dearly and was an almost perfect example of how a knight should act; he was the one who had taught cole how to weild a sword among other basic things a knight must know. When cole was ten summers and entering a knight in training his father passed leaving his mother heartbroken but He rose up to the occasion and took care of his mother while training to become a knight. He was a fast learner and was soon able to be granted knighthood when he became the age of 16. His mentor sent him on a journey of slef discovery and on that journey he met a single girl that caught his attention.
he had been traveling for many months when he came across an unusual sight, a woman weilding a long sword with ease. she had seemed to be learning how to fight from an old knight, who he didnt realize till later was a friend of his fathers, He had dismounted his horse and walked up to them and placed a hand on the womans shoulder to introduce himself only to have the hand grabbed and him going flying over her shoulder. It was in that moment that he decided that he was in love with the girl. During her training her flirted with her and she all but ignored him. Calling him many unpleasant names that a woman souldnt even utter but he was completely infatuated with her. He left shortly after that heading back towards Camelot. It wasnt till later that he recieved news that the old man had passed and that the girl he took in had disappeared. While he couldnt remember the girls name now that he was 22 but he did remember the old mans last name, Astras. He refused to tell anyone of what had happened while he was away wanting to keep the girl a secret, and while he knew there was no chance that they would ever meet he made a vow that if he were to marry the girl would have to be able to shock him more than that girl did that day. Now he was just helping Camelot rebuild and trying to keep the royal family from harm that always seemed to follow them. [/blockquote][/color]
