.:Family:. Mordred's parents were killed upon entering Camelot for being druids while he was still at a young age, he had no other relatives.
.:Occupation:. Once upon a time, Mordred was apprentice to a druid man. His current occupational hazard is that of being an accomplice to a group of bandit sorcerers.
.:Current Location of Residence:. Escetia (Cenred's kingdom), Border near Camelot.
.:History:. Mordred's was born to a known sorcerer and his wife who may, or may not have been a sorceress as they were Druids. From an early age he was noted to have magic, and was put to be an apprentice to one of the men in the little settlement his parents had been a part of. With his guide, Mordred learnt of his abilities and worked to master them, or at least get a better control over his magic.

One day while out with his master, they had stumbled into Camelot to buy supplies, and almost immediately warning bells rang and he was told to run, only after receiving an injury caused by one of the guard's swords. He hid in the market square and knew immediately who Merlin was. He had called out mentally for help, and eventually found himself being chased as Merlin led him to the Lady Morgana's chambers where he hid.

Upon entering Morgana's chambers he had to hide and he wound up passing out. He became ill as his wounded arm became infected. Morgana, Merlin and Guinevère had attempted to nurse him back. It wasn't until Gaius had helped that he recovered.

When he recovered, Morgana attempted to smuggle him out of camelot but the first attempt was thwarted by Arthur. Mordred was to be executed the next dawn. Merlin and Arthur eventually helped him escape, and he promised Merlin that they would meet again some day, as he spoke aloud his name. Mordred.

He rejoined the Druids and lived with them near the border of Camelot in Cenred's kingdom. He was happy when Morgana came to their settlement although the woman he had grown close to was injured by a Serket which gave him the chance to take care of her and return her kindness. The reunion was short lived as Arthur and his men searched the Druid Settlement. Mordred grew angry as a group of guards surrounded him which he with magic either knocked unconscious or possibly even killed.

Even later on he joined a group of renegade sorcerers and infiltrated Camelot to steal the crystal of Neahtid. He intended to use it and help the group in order to take down Uther. They had successfully stolen the crystal. Later on, guards stormed the campsite he was staying in, and used magic again to kill the two guards chasing him. As he left his words mentally communicated to Merlin at the time were I shall never forgive this, Emrys, and I shall never forget.
