Purpure, a Maltese cross, in chief two escallops argent.

His Grace, Duke Gunthar Jonsson, KSCA, OL

Nickname(s): Poppa Gunthar, The Rain King, Battle Bot - the story behind that: I had been in Atenveldt for about a year. I decided to fight in their Crown. I'd just broken up that week with the lady I'd been fighting for. I wanted people to know who I was. I made it to the quarter finals. I was fighting a guy who is now a Duke. Everyone was watching. A new knight fighting this unknown Count. I realized he was really, really aggressive, so I started baiting him. I'd throw a tiny shot and then step out of range. He'd growl, step forward, and I'd step out of range. I saw smoke practically coming out of his helmet. Oh! He's ready! I twitched, and immediately spun. He immediate attacked. I hit him in the face plate. You heard the CLANG!! All through town. He was going for my leg, lunging right into the shot. Apparently I knocked him out, but hitting the ground woke him up. (He did take my leg, though!) The lower level fighters started calling me battle bot.

Persona History:

Gunthar is from Sweden, but he is presently in Wales, guarding the Border for John II.

He started as a very minor noble. He went to the Crusades (heard there was a lot of fighting...) but was injured. Tended to by the Knights of Saint John, he eventually joined their Order, becoming first a Sergeant and then a Knight.
