Maxwell

BIOGRAPHY

Maxwell MacCàidh was born in 611 BR to an unnamed peasant mother in Alpin, a town in the Cowlands of Planet Arturia. His mother claimed that nine months before he was born, she was caught in a green-colored rain while walking home from the market. No one else reported seeing this rain, insisting it was a bright sunny day. Soon after, she became pregnant despite not having any men in her life at the time. Nine months later, the baby was born, and to her horror, it was one of the Oni Demons she had heard about in the Druids' sermons. Refusing to even name the child, she took him to the Druids, who in turn brought him to King Arturius. He named the child Maxwell, after one of the first few Knights he trained millennia ago, and gave him the surname MacCàidh, which had been the surname of the Druid who brought Maxwell to him. 

As even half-Oni age differently from mortals, Maxwell stayed essentially a baby for the first 300 years of his life, under the constant care of the immortal demigods that were King Arturius and Queen Bowdig. He witnessed wars begin and end, alliances form and fall, knights from birth until death, and watched Arturius and Bowdig rediscover Astral Magic, but could remember none of it. Only by the time he was around 300 years old did he start remembering things, and even then it was very fragmented.
