General Behavior: Cador is a very intimidating man. Which is probably the main reason the king made him the commander of the Royal Army. According to his reputation he is the least sane man in England, but also the best warrior. He is said to be able to master the use of any weapon that he picks up in a very short amount of time. People claim, however, that he is just as likely to kill his own men as he is the enemy. This probably stems from the fact that he has killed liars and traitors among his ranks without hesitation. That being said; he does command the loyalty of all of his own soldiers and most of the royal army. This may be; however, because they fear his wrath. But; whatever works? Basically his reputation for being a cold blooded killer proceeds him. He may not actually be purely evil; like they claim, but he definitely seems heartless.

Cador was not born in England. For that matter, no one is really sure of exactly where he came from. He refers to "the mountains" as home, but no one knows what mountains. Where ever he is from, rumors of his sordid past seem to have followed him. No one knows if the rumors are true, but they certainly are horrifying. The first rumor says that some event of his past lead to a complete mental break down in which he bound up his parents and siblings while they slept. They say he spent days torturing them in "cruel and unimaginable ways" before he killed them off, one by one. Some say he killed his siblings first, making his parents watch. Others say that it was the opposite.



The other; and probably worse, rumor is that he killed his ex-wife while she was pregnant. The story goes that he found out she had been cheating on him. Rather than divorce her and run the risk of another man's child being born to his wife he ran her through with a sword. Of course, these rumors are all speculation. However; they are enough to make him the most hated man in England, aside from the king. But no one dares to let it be known that they pray for his death on a daily basis. Fear of this man runs strongly through out England, even in the commoners.



The king dismisses the rumors about the man as a bunch of folly, but only because he doesn't realize just how much Cador actually hates him. If he knew that; he'd probably encourage the rumors and possibly spread even worse ones.

Whether the rumors are true or not is nothing that Cador will grace with a response. He smartly keeps his mouth shut and lets people thing what they will.
