He was the ruler of the Caananese tribe from an early age and is quite experienced in many forms of combat. He represents organization and strength and tried to destroy Castle Hedon and the Gandon Sanctuary.

## Early Life

Born as the heir of the Caananese Tribe of Bavaria. As the chief's son, he was expected to be the best at combat, academics and athletics. Due to his father's high expectations, he did become the best in the tribe and became quite popular among the others. He met Roland the Wise when he was in university, they became close friends and soon inseparable. They studied together and, due to Roland's proficiency in the dark arts and Carter's proficiency in combat, they became a fearsome duo.

## Chiefdom

He soon defeated his father in combat and claimed the throne for himself. He appointed Roland as his guardian and the two conquered nearby tribes and spread the Caananese influence throughout the land. They build up immense wealth in gold and slaves and, had more than enough to go around. During a siege Carter found a chapel of Prince Saketh and captured the Cultists. He learned they could be contracted to steal anything so, of course Carter was interested. He heard of an artifact that could rewire his blood to become an orc of mythical origins. He then contracted the cultists to steal the Infinite Scroll and, so they did.

## Ascendance

When he received the scroll, he of course unraveled it and read through its infinite power for days on end. He soon passed the scroll to Roland to become a prince, and so he did. Carter used his newfound abilities to travel Mt. Saint Helens and use the shadowforge to make himself a powerful weapon. What came from the forge was a hammer of immense power, The Hammer of Shattered Earth. Roland also created himself a weapon and formed the Crystal Staff of Eruption.

## House of Caan

After ascending to orchood, Carter formed the House of Caan and appointed Roland as Warder. The house is based out of Castle Jakale in the mountains of Bavaria. The house held weekly sessions and it's subjects worshiped King Carter and Prince Roland. The house amassed an army of warriors and besieged The Gandon Sanctuary and split Castle Hedon with the might of his hammer.

## Hammer of Shattered Earth

The Hammer of Shattered Earth is the artifact of King Carter and, was infamous for splitting Castle Hedon during the War of Caan. The hammer however, was destroyed during the forging of The Blade of Banishing Angels. Carter forged the Hammer after he ascended to orchood after reading the Infinite Scroll. The hammer was kept in Castle Jakale in Caan. It is related to The Crystal Staff of Eruption.

## Execution and Death

King Carter was executed after the War of Caan by King Ani of Orcs using the Blade of Banishing Angels. After the War of Caan, Carter was captured and taken to the Slave Valley near Castle Hedon were he was decapitated to purify and complete the Blade. This event was what created peace between the orcs.

## Roland the Wise

Roland the Wise assisted in the capture of his longtime friend King Carter III. He was appointed the Arch-Battlemage of the Court of Orcs by King Ani for his cooperation. Roland shows no remorse for the backstabbing of King Carter but, is working to use the Blade of Banishing Angels to make himself the pureblooded king.
