Bio
Cadoc grew up learning all the ways of a knight and the use of weapons from his father starting at an early age. After the untimely death of his parents as an early teen at the hands of mercenaries, Cadoc started to become cold and uncaring loosing everything he had held dear to him. Being on his own after that he became pretty much the nomadic type never staying in one place for very long, never giving himself a chance to get close to anyone, he honed his fighting skills learning new techniques from who ever he could. As he grew older he made his way as a mercenary, fighting anyone if the price was right, serving in armies and even planning battles for different rules and lands, until he came across the DeSade Empire where he met the beautiful woman Enchantress. The woman with her love, beauty and perseverance broke down the tough walls he had built around himself and his feelings to protect himself from ever becoming close or caring for another. Over time his heart and soul became hers as he fell deeply in love with her. To prove his love and calm her fears of him becoming injured or killed, he made a promise to her to never fight again. The loss of the one thing he had always known most of his life, caused him to become colder then normal and at a loss to where his life would lead him. Slowly he would find himself becoming concerned with only his love for Enchantress and their life together.
For a time Cadoc disappeared from the empire, when he was taken captive by a woman he once served. The woman tried to force Cadoc to be hers and serve her without question, fighting her Cadoc refused. After being beaten and tortured nearly to the point of death... Cadoc found the will to fight his way free of her clutches to return to the empire and the woman he loved. When he finally returned to the empire his spirit was crushed when he learned of Enchantress' and Morganti's marriage, Out of stubborn pride and hurt, Cadoc distanced himself from her causing them to grow apart, though his love for her burned as strong in his heart as it had from the day they met. Swallowing his pride when he heard of Enchantress' leaving the empire he'd set out in search of her vowing he would not stop until he found her once again.
Traveling from land to land he searched for Enchantress, almost at the point of giving up cursing himself and his foolish pride that had drove them apart. Having heard rumors of a land called Nathalion, Cadoc would decide to search once more, traveling to this land he had heard of. Upon entering Nathalion he'd wander the land trying to search out places he thought Enchantress would frequent. Finally finding her once again in this new land, he'd vow to himself and her that he would not loose her ever again. After completing the trails set forth by the “family” of the keep, which would change a part of him forever and starting a job at the weapons shop. Cadoc and Enchantress were married ready to start their new lives in this new land...After thier wedding Cadoc bought a cottage in the forest near Nathalion, a place where him and his wife could go to be alone away from the hustle and bustle of the busy keep they share with those they would call family.Cadoc competed in the spring festival as the champion for the weapons shop. Although he didn't win, he faced off against mighty foes and held his own for some time before eventually being vanquished.
Cadoc is a stubborn man that is set in his ways, which makes it hard for him to become close to others. Keeping to himself for the most part, he pays little mind to things going on around him, unless they concern him or the ones he loves, or unless he feels a situation warrants his attention.
