Sexton Scale

Sexton Scale is one of the most celebrated and renown men in all of Edelmaa. Sexton is the most well known member of the Scale family, in fact so much so that his family branch is considered almost separate.
== Early life ==
Sexton was born in 138 to the well known Scale family. His father was a laird who owned the Scale Manor and a veteran of the Worvian Revolutionary War. Sexton was not spoiled as much as his older brother Egil Scale. Sexton took up timber work from the local lumberjack Turgudei. Sexton wanted to be like Turgudei when he would grow up. Turgudei was a strong man, who came from the fabled West. Turgudei was a popular man in Small manor province in general.
When Sexton turned 15 he was a professional lumberjack. He managed to become rich with his work. Turgudei died few months after Sexton became 15. Sexton mourned his loss, however Sexton was a very calm man. Turgudei taught Sexton to be always calm and peaceful, and only show his wrath when something precious is at risk.
== Edelmaa Great War ==
In May 170, when Sexton was 32 years old, King Henrinion died beginning the Edelmaa Great War. Sexton's brother, Egil Scale, was a courtier in the king's court was assigned to be the regal regent of the 14 year old King Hanren. Sexton joined his brother in the Royal Court and was made the vice-regent in case of emergency. In July, Egil was killed during Marquesses's peace by the very king he was regent of. This upset Sexton, but Sexton actually resented his brother and he didn't want to betray his good friend Artorias Varjangaria. Sexton was made the Regent of Workhold. Following the two disasters in Dives; the Marquesses' Peace and the Battle of Dives, the Royalists wanted to push back against the foreign invader Jiri Baathúr. Sexton helped Artorias's brother Arthur Varjangaria in recruiting soldiers to fight Jiri. Then Sexton fought as an commander in the legendary Battle of Ravaged manor field. This battle was a success and Sexton and Artorias rose to become the heroes of the Royalists. Sadly, Arthur perished in the battle.
Sexton accompanied Artorias in all of his campaigns. However Sexton didn't really do any fighting or commanding, until the Deceit at Lion's Road when Artorias and Sexton were taken captive by the renegade Samuel Berghof. Samuel had been the overall commander of the Royalist forces, but after the Marquesses's peace he had proclaimed himself the King of Hefaia, his own fiefdom in Ili-Hefien. Sexton and Artorias broke out of Samuel's army camp and fled to Muede, where Sexton and Octavio Woodbrew helped make Artorias the governor of the city. After Artorias was made governor, Sexton quickly raised an army out of the lands of Muede and fought in the Battle of Muede, where Sexton played a pivotal role in defeating the Peasant Rebel army.
Artorias was invited to convene in the Kerry's Farm negotiations and left their new army under Sexton. Sexton went onward to besiege the city of Silverion, one of the key strategic cities held by the Peasant Revolt. Sexton knew his men were inadequate for an assault and held out until Artorias returned with proper reinforcements and together they took the city. Artorias explained, that a Great Coalition had been formed to combat Jiri Baathúr's brother, Jamur Emetur who had landed in Graille. Sexton however was left to govern Silverion, as he got ill.
== Borian War ==
Sexton, after the Great War, retired to the Scale Manor, his home that was utterly ravaged during the war, as two greatest battles of the war took place there. Sexton married a minor noble woman and had one child with her; Sophia Scale.
Sexton briefly became the tutor of Charles Perickard's son, Karl Perickard few years prior to the Borian War. During his time in Charles's court, Sexton was convinced to join the Borians in joining against the Kingdom of Workhold. After Sexton realized that Artorias and Artorias's eldest son Soliar Varjangaria were in on it too, Sexton agreed to join. Sexton's role in the Borian War was minimal, as he largely stayed behind in Suomenlinna and Olav Castle, eventually partaking in the Karolean Voyage and leaving Edelmaa with Karl Perickard.
