Sir Titos of Valencia

Sir Titos of Valencia was a knight of great importance during the first Gnoll War, in which he served as both a banner man and commander. 
== Biography ==
Titos was born into mild nobility in a manor house, now forgotten, near Etonia. He was trained early in the ways of horseback riding and archery, though his biggest strength was with the sword. He voluntarily joined the Caldosi Standing Army, requesting to be part of the standard commoner's division of foot soldiers. He was granted this, serving three years at the Fort Valencia until becoming a squire to Commander Kai Maldio. 
After squiring for three years, Titos was knighted by order of Commander Maldio in 655 A.E. During this time, he had Omiron the Quick as his squire, though he eventually was replaced by Lord Alvos after the Battle of Deep Den. Sir Titos was promoted to commander soon after the battle, leading a group of twenty banner men. He was most famous for his charge at the Sacking of Zaradoz, when he led his remaining eight banner men into the heart of the fight in order to slaughter Za-Kzs-No-Ra, the matriarch of the northern Gnoll forces. He was killed shortly after by Gnoll forces and is venerated in Caldos as a saint-like figure.
== Appearance ==
Sir Titos was of average height and build for a Caldosi male of the time, though he was notably muscled compared to his fellow knights. He kept his black hair long, which hung unusually straight down his back, a quality noted by many as strange at the time. In retrospect, this could be signs of mixed ancestry with Kaiyan people. Sir Titos wore always his cloak, featuring his rank and the mark of Lord Malados, as well as a suit of exceptionally crafted leather armor which is housed currently in Fort Valencia proper. 
He had the mark of Lord Malados on his right shoulder with two crowns upon it.
