'''Uilliam mac Fearchair mhic Gille Aindrias''' (WILL-yum mak FAR-kar vik gill-eh AHN-drahs) was born in Balnagowan, Scotland, in the year of Our Lord 1263. He was 34, married, and had two sons when William Wallace and Andrew de Moray began the uprising that would eventually lead to Scottish independence. He joined de Moray's rebels at Avoch Castle near Inverness, and aided in the fight to take Balnagowan Castle from the Countess of Ross.

Uilliam received his [[Award of Arms]] in October of AS 29 (CE 1994). He received the Magistrae [[Ithra]] (MI, or the [[Magisters Degree]]) for teaching medieval board games in October AS 31 (CE 1996), and the [[Lions Claw]] (LC) for long-time service to the [[Barony]] of [[Lions Gate]] in November AS 32 (CE 1997). He was accepted into the [[Order of the Goutte de Sang]] (GdS), for service to the Kingdom of [[An Tir]], in AS 33 (CE 1998), and the [[Order of the Silver Pillar]] for service to the Principality of [[Tir Righ]], in AS 43 (CE 2008).

Uilliam knows stuff about beer.  As a result of his knowledge, Uilliam was made a member of [[L'Etoile_d’Argent | L’Ordre de l'Etoile d’Argent]] in AS 45 (CE 2010), and a member of the Order of the [[Jambe de Lion]] in AS 46 (CE 2012).

On the 16th of February, AS 47 (CE 2013), Uilliam was proud to take his first protégée, [[Aine inghean ui Chonchobhair]]. Uilliam then noticed on March 2, 2016, that Aine had gone in and changed all spelling for all instances of "protégé".

On the 30th of November, AS 48 (CE 2013), [[Uilliam and Caitrina of Lions Gate | Uilliam and Caitrina]] were invested as the 5th [[Baron]] and [[Baroness]] of [[Lions Gate]].
