## Biography

### Early life (314 ASB - 340 ASB)

Clancy Paige was born in the city of Vetchinia on M10-07 314 ASB to Jakob Paige and Anisa Paige. Clancy's father was a scribe in the court of Baron Calum Lewis of Vetchinia. On M12-13 320 ASB Calum Lewis offered Jakob Paige a sum of money to send Clancy off to Terracotta City to train as a member of the Clayistan Royal Guard (CRG), Jakob Paige accepted and Clancy left for Terracotta City on M12-15 320 ASB. Clancy Paige was trained by the CRG as a tactician and soldier and completed his training on M12-25 340 ASB and became a Guardsman of the Clayistan Royal Guard.

### Clayistan Royal Guard (340 ASB - 343 ASB)

Clancy Paige like many of his fellow CRG members was assigned to protect the Terracotta Palace. On M3-17 343 ASB whilst at the garrison in the Terracotta Palace an explosion was heard originating from inside the palace. Paige's superior at the garrison Lachlan Barrera ordered the forces to wait, they waited for five hours before entering into the palace. It was in the palace where Paige discovered the room where the explosion took place and the bodies of Sarah II and Carlos Sectile who were the wife and son of Albert Sectile who was the grandson of Claymore II, King of Clayistan. On M3-19 343 ASB Claymore II held a conference with the leaders of the various CRG garrisons and declared that their failure to protect Sarah II and Carlos Sectile was due to Barrera being trained in espionage by the CRG and not military tactics, Claymore II then announced the creation of the Clayistan National Army (CNA) out of portions of the CRG, Clancy Paige was automatically made a Major-General within the new army.

### Clayistan National Army (343 ASB - 375 ASB)

Clancy Paige initial wondered why he had been given such a high rank within the CNA as he had been involved in the event that led to the deaths of Sarah II and Carlos Sectile, his wondering ended on M3-24 343 ASB when the various vassal armies of Clayistan were absorbed by the CNA and caused a vast amount of soldiers to be placed under Paige's command.

Clancy Paige was promoted to the rank of Lieutenant-general on M9-18 364 ASB. On M10-18 363 ASB Clancy Paige along with a fifth of the CNA journeyed to the Sand Republic city of Monoterrus to aid Baron Signus Clavier in the Sand War of Succession. On M8-10 365 ASB the ruling family of Monoterrus including Baron Signus Clavier died, all of the Clayistan forces including the CNA and Paige left Monoterrus on M8-12 365 ASB.

When the Sand Republic invaded the Kingdom of Sandy Clay Loam on M10-28 365 ASB Paige was serving in his home city of Vetchinia, he spent the first few years of the war patrolling around the city and fighting mock battles, he was told by General Jeremy Moss who was the head of the forces at Vetchinia that preparations for a counter invasion of the Sand Republic were underway.

On M4-14 373 ASB the Sand Republic landed in northern Clayistan, all of Moss's forces including Paige were initially ordered to remain at Vetchinia. Three days after the capture of Terracotta City on M5-18 373 ASB Moss had his forces split into two groups, one being led by himself that would be in charge of defending Vetchinia, and one being given to Clancy Paige to fight Sand forces within Clayistan. During the war Clancy Paige took part in many successful battles against the Sand Republic and was present outside of Terracotta City on M1-04 375 ASB preparing for the battle to retake the city when the Sand War ended with the Sand Republic forces opening the gates of Terracotta City.

Paige was promoted to the rank of General within the CNA on M1-05 375 ASB this did not last long as only three days later he was requested by King Claysius IV (formerly Albert Sectile) to take up the position of head of the Sandy Clay Regional Army (SCRA), he accepted with offer and moved to the city of Sunbell in the Sandy Clay Autonomous Region (SCAR).

### Sandy Clay Regional Army (375 ASB - 379 ASB)

On M11-12 376 ASB a Sand Republic general named Tripe Alonzo without the approval of the Sand Republic's king Austin Alonzo mounted an invasion of Clayistan and the Loaman Empire, Paige had his forces move against him. Paige was present at the Battle of Leaking Hill on M3-09 377 where Tripe Alonzo's forces where crushed and Tripe himself captured by the Sand Republic. On M5-29 378 ASB it came to Paige's attention that a high ranking member of his army had published an anti-Clayistan book titled "The Southern Walls" Paige had the author of this book Dao Go stripped of his rank and expelled from the SCRA.

On M4-24 379 ASB Claysius IV died and was succeeded by Manterro I who was overthrown and replaced by Dervot IV the next day. On M7-20 379 ASB Dervot IV removed General Clancy Paige as the head of the Sandy Clay Regional Army among other Claysius IV era government officials and the next day under the advice of his chief advisor Izza Fissil had Dao Go reinstated into the Sandy Clay Regional Army and promoted him to the rank of General to sever as the head of said army. To Paige the strangest thing about this was that his replacement was Dao Go, Paige decided against trying to get his position back and decided instead to retire off of the small fortune he had earned during his time serving Clayistan.

### Retirement (379 ASB - 391 ASB)

When Paige decided to remain in the city of Sunbell to retire and purchased a small villa in the city's outer regions on M5-07 379 ASB. On M12-27 382 ASB Paige met and became friends with a Sandy Loam man named Aoife Kerr.

On M8-08 390 ASB Dao Go overthrew the government of the SCAR and on M9-01 391 ASB declared the SCAR independent from Clayistan as the Sandy Clay Revolutionary Republic and launched invasions of all neighboring regions beginning the Great Soil War. On M9-04 391 ASB Paige's friend Aoife Kerr told Paige that he worked for the Soil Union and asked if Paige would like to become an informant, Paige accepted the offer.

### Soil Union informant (391 ASB - 418 ASB)

As a Soil Union informant Paige would gather information for the Soil Union and deliver it to Kerr at a local pub once a month. Paige continued to work as an informant after the end of the Great Soil War. Aoife Kerr was arrested by the Sandy Clay Royal Guard (SCRG) on M12-03 402 ASB for spying, Paige was instructed by one of Kerr's fellow Soil Union operatives to from then on out deliver the information to the town of Brown Harbour.

On M8-13 418 ASB during one of his trips to Brown Harbour Clancy Paige fell into a mud pit and drowned in the mud.
