## Biography

### Early Life

Augustine-Dieubonne was born into the house of Boutillier in the mid eleventh century, when that family ruled the French Duchy of Burgundy. He was mostly an obedient child, rarely getting into trouble, who preferred to spend his days in the practice yard with his father's knights.

As was custom at the time, Augustine married young, at the age of seventeen, and by the time he was twenty he had sired two sons.

### The Crusade

When Augustine was thirty five, he heeded the call of Pope Urban II, taking his sons and levies to war in the First Crusade to take back the Holy Land. During the Siege of Jerusalem, Richard, his second son, was separated from Augustine and the main body of his troops. Passing the command to Guillaume, his eldest, Lord Augustine gathered a dozen of his men to find his son. They had no luck in finding him. Instead, they encountered a young werewolf, whose first change had been triggered by the battle. It had already killed a local woman and was preparing to eviscerate her orphaned child. Augustine and his men engaged the monster, but they were no match for it. With tooth and claw, it tore Augustine's men apart. Filled as he was with terror, Augustine refused to flee, fighting on in an attempt to protect the little boy. He was but a mere man, however, and the beast spilled his guts with a swipe of its claws. But before the life had left him completely, a pale savior came out of the night. Nicolas Mason, better known as Nick Silverhand, arrived and slew the creature. After briefly touching minds with the dying warrior and seeing what he had done, the vampire offered Augustine immortality, to which the Duke accepted, and was granted Nick's embrace.

### Early Undeath

He spent a few more years in the middle east with his sire before going back to England with him to continue practice his abilities. Later in the 1600s he spent time with his grandsire Amara where he learned some abilities and how to navigate some politics.

### 1800s

In 1847, Augustine came together with his sire, Nicolas Mason in Montreal to celebrate Nick turning one thousand years old.

#### The Wild West

##### Reunion with his Sire

Augustine rejoined with his sire again in 1879, in the town of Tombstone, Arizona. Augustine felt his sire's presence outside the town, and found him in a local saloon. However, their reunion was interrupted by the arrival of a werewolf pack, led by the infamous outlaw Jackson McCoy. After his sire telepathically mesmerized the mortals to leave, Augustine and Nick slaughtered the outlaws, ending the battle by feasting on their final foe. Augustine then destroyed the evidence of the fight by burning the saloon down, while his sire altered the memories of the mortals to believe that there had been a gunfight. Subsequently, the two began another chapter in their journey together, venturing off into the lawless American West.
