• Kingdom Arts and Sciences Minister (AS XL)

I started in the Far West in AS 20.

My first event in AnTir was Alpine Pass War in AS 22

My last name "Redthorn" comes from the German "Rotdorn" I based this on a group of silversmiths from Sterling Germany who came to England during the Reign of Edward III, it seems the English currency was badly debased and needed improvement. Thus the term "British Sterling" means silver coins made in England by Germans. The Germans Anglisized their names, thus "Rot" became Red, and "Dorn" became "Thorn" I came up with my name upon being told I had to have a name to get an AoA.

I started out making armor added fighting and leather work. I studdied the Black Death Became a man of Science Stopped fighting due to a concussion received in a car accident. Started doing wood carving, printing and paper making. I became Kingdom Minister of A+S then broke my back and had to quit. (in two places!) I'm better now, and recomend that anyone who wants to try breaking their back not do so.
