[b]Name of Lord[/b] Baron Conrad Sforza [b]Physical Description[/b]: Once described as tall, blonde, and handsome with light green eyes, the Red Pox has left Baron Sforza pockmarked and disfigured. While he survived the effects of the disease, it was not without cost. The Baron has shaved his head, except for a warriors top knot. His body is marked from scars, both from the diseases, battle wounds, and self inflicted lashes when Sforza is in a particularly zealous mood. [b]Claimed Fief[/b]: Lussex [b]Basic History[/b]: Conrad Sforza was never expected to rule or inherit, the third son of Francesco Sforza, it was expected that Conrad would have to seek his fortune on the battlefield or don the robes of a priest. But then the Red Pox ravaged Lussex, three generations of Sforza's were consigned to the earth. Conrad, a teenager survived the pox, but the plague left him physically ravaged in both body and mind. Conrad believed that he was spared for a reason, the boy who once scoffed at the notion of God and sought the pleasures of flesh now spends hours in silent prayer. While some have called Conrad's sanity into question, no one can doubt his bravery in battle. The Baron personally leads the Lussex Flagbearers against the wretched creatures of the Floodplain's, trusting in God and his sword arm to bring him victory against the wretched abominations. The Sforza's call their ancestral keep of Cambria home. The castle town is once a shadow of its former self, a relic of the age when the Sforza's answered to no King or liege lord. Time like everything else however has brought a great deal of change. Now the Sforza's pay lip service to the Summit. While Conrad has sworn an oath of loyalty to liege and god, the actions of his Duke and his mysterious past have never sat well with the man who now occupies Cambria. With the throne vacant, uncertain times lay ahead for Osteria and its people. [b]Background[/b]: Champion
