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 father's influence and a close personal relationship with the 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.

History

Early life

Sir Daniel Wigginbottom Fortesque IV[1.1] was born in the kingdom of Gallowmere in 1254.[1.2]Template:Ref

Death

Fortesque died instantly when he was purportedly distracted and then shot through his left eye by one of Zarok's demon archers. He had also lost his lower mandible. In order to save face, King Peregrin organised a hero's burial, including a custom crypt. From then on, Fortesque would be revered as the Hero of Gallowmere.

Notes

[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.
