Backstory: Tatton was born into a poor family, a broken household. A drunkard father and a neglectful mother, he was practically left to fend for himself most days, which he did. Tatton stole, robbed, anything for a few extra coins or some easy food. It didn't take long before he joined some gang, eventually going from more petty crimes to robbing merchants or doing paid mercenary work, and of course, tatton loved it. Though unlike the others, he avoided killing—at least as much as possible. Though it came to a head on one job, they were supposed to rob some small caravan, simple and quick, or at least it was supposed to be. What they didn't know was the caravan was transporting both goods and knights. A few of them died trying to rob it, while most of the gang—including tattoo, surrendered. Though he was lucky to avoid the gallows, instead only serving a couple years in the jails of Ebonveil. That changed him, and once he was a free man again he enlisted with the knights, putting his skills to use in a different way. A better way. It took years of hard work, but eventually he was granted the rank of Grand Master at forty, and seven years later, on his forty seventh birthday, he would be selected for the Kingsguard. A small group of five knights specifically selected for protecting the royal family, and the heir especially.

Relationships:

• Harlow Forde, Red wolf demihuman, fellow Kingsguard. 20 years old, muscular, loud, troublemaker, mischievous, loyal. "The red wolf? He's a fool. Him and Stithulf are trouble, even if they're useful." Tolerates him as a fellow Kingsguard, though he occasionally tells him off.
• Stithulf artic wolf demihuman, fellow Kingsguard. Slightly slim, 21 years old, mischievous, loyal, blunt, playful. "Stithulf. He's a bit better than his counterpart, Harlow, but not by much. He's acceptable." Treats him similar to Harlow.
• Zelene Reviee, crow demihuman, fellow Kingsguard. 28 years old, slim, quiet, intelligent, thoughtful. "Something's off about Zelene. Don't know what. She seems well enough though, and she's reliable." Trusts her slightly less than the others.
• Rovena Radclyffee, bear demihuman, fellow Kingsguard. 26 years old, large, kind, loud, protective, loyal, overbearing. "Rovena! Now that's a knight, she's fierce and smart, not to mention her size. She's a fine warrior." Respects her the most out of the Kingsguard members.
• Æðelstan Ashworthe, ram demihuman, The king of Eredurnwyn. 67 years old, secretive, proud, confident. "My king. There is nothing I wouldn't do if he ordered it, my loyalty is endless." Deeply respects and appreciates Æðelstan, as he is the only one aware of tattons past.
