## Biography

### Early life (293 ASB - 313 ASB)

Claymore III (born Anthony Sectile) was born on M8-21 293 ASB to Kacie Sectile and Duke Payden Sectile during his uncle, Claymore I's reign of Clayistan. On M5-03 302 ASB, Claymore I died with his brother, and Anthony's father, Duke Payden Sectile, became the King of Clayistan as Claymore II.

On M3-30 304 ASB Sectile's father Claymore II was hosting a party in the Terracotta Palace's ballroom, Anthony Sectile was told to remain in his room. Whilst Sectile was lying in his bed trying to got to sleep he heard an explosion coming from outside of the Terracotta Palace, he then got out of bed to investigate. Once outside of his room he noticed Baron of Hursh Humza of Hervair stumbling towards him, when Humza eventually he grabbed Sectile by the arm and attempted to drag him away, Sectile bit into Humza's arm which caused him to recoil and drop Sectile who then attempted to run away from his would be captor. Sectile made it just into the Terracotta Palace's courtyard before Humza managed to jump on top of him, Sectile then began struggling and screaming this caught the attention of the the Clayistan Royal Guard (CRG) who were nearby investigating the earlier explosion, when they got to Sectile they quickly beat Humza off of him and asked him what happened, Sectile told the CRG that Humza had grabbed him and started dragging him towards the ballroom, the CRG members briefly discussed before two thirds of them set off towards the terracotta Palace with the rest remaining behind to protect Sectile from other potential attackers. Sectile later learned that the attack was part of a failed coup orchestrated by ousted King of Clayistan Achille II.

Despite his father's position as king, Anthony wasn't declared as heir apparent (though he was still considered to be heir apparent) until M10-06 313 ASB, after marrying Maria Stephenson.

### Heir apparent (313 ASB - 354 ASB)

On M8-28 315 ASB, Maria Sectile gave birth to Anthony's first son, whom his father named Antonio Sectile. Maria Sectile gave birth to a second son on M3-12 417 ASB, whom Anthony Sectile named Albert Sectile.

Albert Sectile married Sarah II of the Kingdom of Clayistria on M12-08 337 ASB, and with the permission of Anthony and his father Payden, left the Terracotta Palace and moved to a manor in the town of Warrish. On M4-20 341 ASB, Claymore II removed Antonio Sectile from the line of succession due to marrying a commoner. He recalled Albert Sectile and his wife along with their son that they had during their time in Warrash named Carlos Sectile, and Albert began being trained by Anthony and his father the next day.

On M3-17 343 ASB, Anthony Sectile, whilst training Albert with Payden, heard an explosion that came from an unknown place in the palace. Albert and his son were ordered by Claymore II to make their way to the saferoom and wait for the arrival of the army who he assumed would have heard the explosion, and they were joined in the saferoom a few minutes after arriving by Maria Sectile. The group remained in the saferoom for six hours before the CRG arrived to remove them. It was discovered shorty after their rescue that the explosion had killed Sarah II and Carlos. A group of three people were captured by the CRG shortly after, and they confessed to planting the bomb four days later, and claimed that they were hired by Duke Richard Cloam of the Duchy of Loamshield. Claymore II took no immediate action against Cloam for the assassination, and Albert Sectile left the day after for Claymore II's failure to act. Anthony visited Albert at his home in Sunbell to deliver him a large sum of money on M11-12 344 ASB.

On M8-26 354 ASB, the day after Claymore II died from falling off of a chair, Anthony was declared King of Clayistan as Claymore III.

### King of Clayistan (354 ASB - 362 ASB)

Two days after being declared King, Claymore III arrived in Sunbell and convinced Albert Sectile to return to the Terracotta Palace on the condition that he be allowed to bring his servants with him.

On M7-15 359 ASB, Duke Richard Cloam of the Duchy of Loamshield was elected Emperor of the Loaman Empire under the royal name Loamsly III. Claymore III was convinced by Albert Sectile to severe ties with the Loaman Empire until Loamsly III was no longer in power.

On M6-18 362 ASB, the trade administrators in Anara, Purple Clay Isles revolted against Clayistan rule. Claymore III decided to negotiate the return of the city personally and arrived at Anara two days later. At the negotiation, Claymore III made a hand gesture while making a point that the trade administers interpreted as a signal for his forces attack, and shot Claymore III five times in the chest killing him.
