WILLIAM NICOLAS BLAYDE
“Never be idle Chase, we are like vapor and we know not how long we have in our endeavors. Lost time does not return.”

Blayde, 17, is a squire from Northern Wales, 1429. He is a tall and well-built redhead with a deep respect for the code of chivalry. He exudes nobility in his words and deeds despite his lack of knight status and coming from “no great birth.”

Blayde values and defends loyalty, courage and honor as a typical gentleman soldier. His strong faith in these qualities, even when it doesn’t make sense, can rub those around him the wrong way making him come across as self righteous. Unfortunately, Blayde’s view of the world can be too small which often leads to a limited view of himself.
