Angus Macmillan

## Overview

Angus Macmillan is a Kinrossian Merchant and leader of the Knights of Kinross organisation. Angus was born on the island of Kinross prior to Isoldef finding land and claiming it to be apart of the new state of Finna. Angus accepted Kinross to join the new state hoping it would bring about new trade opportunities. Religiously Angus believes in Glenite Thought a series of religious beliefs based around the ocean, pescatarianism and belief in the God Darun who created the oceans and lands to be worked by his people. Angus Macmillan would export these ideas and would later add further theory to the Glenite beliefs that had been shaped from generations previous to him following his visits to the Southern areas of Althea and his visit to the Kingdom of Vatyaneti where he was made an honorary citizen. He is best known for his Co-Leadership of the Finnan Liberation Army that saw the overthrow of Isoldef and the establishment of a new government.

### Early Life and Rise to Power

Angus was born to Kinrossian parents although he lived around the local area, Sometimes living in a small farming house over the River Firf that seperates the mainland of present day Finna and Kinross. Angus would later move permanently back into Kinross living by the harbour. By the age of 10 he worked aboard ships and in fields to help earn money for the family. Later on he would go on his first expedition sailing to a nearby desert in which Angus would encounter what he belives was a vision of Darun, Cementing Angus as a full believer in Glenite thought that his parents had brought him up to believe in.

Over time he would be allowed to rise through the ranks of the seafaring industry in Kinross, Being allowed to navigate a vessel across the eastern sea and into the south by the age of 17. It was around this time that Angus would decide to enter the business of seafaring, Establishing the Knights of Kinross, a trading organisation built around the defence of Kinross via complete economic domination. The group would eventually take over the entire Kinrossian industry by the time he was only 19 cementing him as a key figure in Kinross. He was later chosen by a group of Kerns (Religious leaders of Glenite Thought) to serve as the the next Thane of Kinross completing his transition from farmer to local leader.

### Time as Thane of Kinross and Time in Finna Prior to the Civil War

Angus Macmillan initially favoured a war against Finnas people who arrived their having escaped from a previous civillisation that had fallen into anarchy after the death of its leader, Domhnall. Angus eventually accepted to work with the Finnan people. Angus offered to start the new state of Finna-Kinross as a joint state However Isolef refused the proposition and pushed for the name to be simply Finna. Angus would disagree and would be the most volatile of citizens in Finna, arguing against decisions made by the Council and Isolef. However he was at a complete minority due to the new Finnan citizens taking full control over the land. When the Finnans became dominant over their claims they put Angus as the new "Duke of Kinross" a title that he found insulting to their history alongside this Finnan people who were not accepted to live in Kinross began a migration their due to their status as a merchant town and their more developed infrastructure compared to the new finnan capital of Wynn.

Angus also took a controversial approach towards the leader of the old state that the Finnans escaped from. Domhnall to Angus was a positive figure and was consistently lied about by the Finnans. Angus referred to him as "Hero of the Poor" and that the Finnans were lying about his supposed negativity.
