[b]Fable[/b]: Once upon a time, Martin Krpan was a simple man, who smuggled English salt through part of Europe, always aided by his loyal mare. One day, he comes across a carriage on a snowbound road, and makes room for it by picking up his laden horse and moves to the side to let the carriage pass. The person inside was none other than the Emperor of Hadsburg, he makes a note to remember the man for his extraordinary strength. Years later, the Emperor calls upon Krpan to face a man named Brdaus in a duel. Brdaus had set up outside the capital and challenged all comers to a duel, and had killed most of the knights in the city including the Crown Prince. Krpan reluctantly accepts the challenge, and shocks the royal Court with his honesty, his uncouthness and homespun manner, but proves himself worthy by defeating Brdau in a duel with his strength and ingenuity, and is rewarded with a license to cargo salt from England.

Now however, he is living in Fabletown, renting a small room in the Woodlands Apartments, working for a salt factory company as one of their truck drivers and, once in a while, he is known to help out as hired muscle, or a mover for Fables, and on extremely rare occasions, he is hired to help the Sheriff.  

[b]Abilities[/b]: Abnormal strength, is very cunning and has the same power that all Fables have, as in he is hard to kill and doesn't age.
