'''Sir Daniel Wigginbottom Fortesque IV''' (1254 – 1286), | '''Sir Daniel Wigginbottom Fortesque IV''' (1254 – 1286), commonly shortened to '''Sir Daniel Fortesque''' or '''Sir Dan''', was a knight of the kingdom of [[Gallowmere]]. Due to his [[Lord Cedric Fortesque|father]]'s influence and a close personal relationship with the [[King Peregrin|king]], Sir Dan became the king's champion and Captain of the army. In 1286, he was charged with leading the militia into battle against the rebelling court magician [[Zarok]] in what would become known as the [[Battle of Gallowmere]]. Ignobly, Sir Dan was killed by the first volley of arrows. The king, unimpressed with Dan's performance, weaved a legend about the felled warrior, declaring him the '''Hero of Gallowmere'''. | ||

{{Note|a|a}} Dan's year of birth is given as 1154 in ''[[MediEvil: The Game Prequel]]''. However, this presents an inconsistency with ''[[MediEvil 2]]'', where he is said to have been born around the year 1250. To reconcile this, a hundred years was added to 1154, resulting in 1254. See [[MediEvil Wiki:Canon]] for more information. | |||
