Warlord: Crusaders - Marcus Gideon, Hero

Warlord: Crusaders - Marcus Gideon, Hero

Warlord takes place in the war-torn land of Taltos in the world of Adon. The region of Taltos is a place of dry, blistering summers and mild winters with various local leaders and their forces battling for control of their own destinies. They battle for the power to become Warlords and becoming legends by their own hand - some are just and fair while others are cruel and capricious. Life in Taltos is brutal, but there is a fortune to be made and eternal fame to be won.

Long have the Knights of the Temple guarded the Chroniclers at Denelspire. Oathbound to remain steadfast guardians and take no action, they watched as evil festered and grew at their doorstep. Denelspire was invaded, and Duke Gerard returned to retake the Citadel and make the land safe for the people once more. Now the guardians of Denelspire have become the instrument of the heavens, destined to rout the evil that has permeated the land. By their faith and by their swords they will return stability to Taltos, for they have taken an oath to serve peace, and Gerard has shown that peace comes only after the war has been won.

Marcus is a mystery, and yet he's not. He will tell anyone who asks of his family's lineage, the lands they once held, the vampire lord who sought to enslave his forebears, and the generations of sons and daughters who have since taken as their sacred duty the hunting of the Undead. The mystery, then, is less his background than the uncanny skill which keeps him alive. Marcus the Hunter is a legend in Taltos, and there are many especially among the forces of the Necropolis who would pay dearly to get rid of him. Yet again and again he returns from his sojourns into the land surrounding Denelspire to report that, though he discovered an incursion of Undead in the southwest hills, "It has all been taken care of now." Many of the young Crusader Squires hold him in awe, and Marcus has shown much good-humor in taking several of them under his wing. The Tower of the Dawn may soon possess a new legion of Undead Hunters...if they survive the tutelage.
