## Biography

### Birth & Childhood

Before Arthur was born to king Uther Pendragon and Ygrayne of Cornwall in the 3rd Era, 20 years before the Oblivion Crisis. His mother before being with Uther was the wife of Gorlois of Tintagel, Duke of Cornwall. When they visited Camelot, King Uther fell madly in love with Ygrayne, and soon attempted to force court her in Camelot. However, she refused and quickly told her husband. Soon after being informed, Gorlois and Ygrayne left the kingdom without being told leave.

This gave the excuse of war by King Uther against the Duke. Uther then asked Emrys to help him enter the Castle of Tintagel, and soon the Wizard had made potions that turned Uther into Gorlois. As the Duke, Uther was able to enter the castle and into the bedchambers of Ygrayne and slept with her. As it soon turns out, Gorlois was killed at his castle at that same night.

Soon after the war, Ygrayne is then courted to King Uther. However, after knowing Arthur wont be as strong as he'd liked. He then asked Emrys againin aid. However, in return, he wishes for Arthur and that his identity and birth a secret. Accepting the offer, when Arthur was born, Emrys took the newborn away to the distant continent of Tamriel, where Emrys gave him to Ector Ectorius in High Rock and raised Arthur as his son alongside Kay Ectorius.

Raised in the farm, Arthur was taught on swordsmanship alongside Kay. During his training, Arthur has shown great degree of hand reflex coordination, allowing him to perform some coordination hand feats. Due to this, Kay grew jeoulsy and soon enough challanged him to a duel to see who's the better studen to Ector. To make it official, both of them went to Ector and told him of the duel. Finding the opportunity, Ector would with the help of his estate's resident's, help him make a small duel arena for them. In construction, both Arthur and Kay helped which improved their overall physical strength. The construction of the small arena, named Ector's arena, was completed in one month.

After the training, Arthur would go to the village where he worked as an an "farm boy" - as in performing duties on a farm such as picking horse feces, feeding the stock and doing on-field work. During his tenure on the farm, an man appeared at the center of town. Since the farm was near, Arthur and along with everyone else in town heard him shout. The man shouted that the true legitate heir to Uther, who was fatally ill when the war with the Sacons began. The man revealed an sword, to which he plunged it into a stone that seemlessly appeared from nowhere. The sword had an words inscribed onto it; "Whoso pulleth out this sword of this stone and anvil, is rightwise king born.". Everyone in town tried to pull the sword but no avail. Arthur, who wanted to pull it in order to gain respect from Kay, but he went otherwise, not believing himself to be Uther's heir.

Days later to which Arthur was playing around with Ector's eagle Archimedes. Chasing it, Arthur became last in a forest. While he stumbled about it, the same man who plunged the sword into the stone appeared. The man introduced himself as Merlin, the warlock of Avalon. Arthur was somewhat confused, to which the warlock then showed him his living place - a hut within a tree. Amazed that Merlin is living inside a tree, the warlock told him on how his being treated by Kay.
