Personal history

Samson was born in the south of Erdantia, and displayed aptitude for magic from a young age. At the age of seven, he was sent off to the Kyras Academy, where he passed every test with flying colours. He remained there until the age of nineteen, at which point he then took on a career as a combat mage in the Kingdom of Erdantia's military. He rose the ranks quickly, becoming a highmage (equivalent of a knight) in 1568. Unfortunately, in 1571, he began to receive blackmail letters from Yannurrin, threatening to kill his close family if he did not send them military secrets. Samson declined, believing that they were lying. Yannurrin assassins killed them both. They continued the letters, this time threatening to kill his daughter, Selina Clark. Now that Samson knew that they were not bluffing, he agreed and sold Yannurrin the information. Unfortunately, operatives from the Order of Erdantia stationed in Yannurrin found the information, and action was taken. Samson is now a wanted criminal in the Kingdom of Erdantia, and until recently has been living in Gaen, where he could be relatively safe.
