'''Sir Daniel Wigginbottom Fortesque IV''' (born 1254), better known as '''Captain Fortesque''', is the cowardly living version of the legendary [[Sir Dan]]. Originally destined to die a failure at the [[Battle of Gallowmere]] as part of [[Zarok the Sorcerer]]'s evil scheme, his fate was changed when his future self took his place in the battle using a [[Body Swap Potion]], trapping the Captain in a skeletal body. Hundreds of years after the fact, the Captain would recount the story to [[Professor Darrow]] of Cambridge Archaeology. | '''Sir Daniel Wigginbottom Fortesque IV''' (born 1254), better known as '''Captain Fortesque''', is the cowardly living version of the legendary [[Sir Dan]].

Dan was born in the kingdom of [[Gallowmere]] in 1254 as the eldest son of [[Lord Cedric Fortesque]]. Dan was a spoilt and bratty child who grew up to be a lazy, arrogant teenager. Daniel decided to become a knight solely to impress the maidens. He trained with the best weapons masters in the land, showing a degree of natural talent, but was too lazy to ever deliver on his potential. No matter! With daddy's money behind him, he rose through the ranks of the [[King Peregrin|king]]'s army. And then one day the [[King Peregrin's Champion|king's champion]], his horse spooked by a toad, was thrown head-first into a well where he promptly drowned. Against all good sense, the king - listening solely to the words of a [[Zarok|new advisor]] - appointed Daniel to be the new Captain of his army.{{Bookref|Fates-Arrow}} | Dan was born in the kingdom of [[Gallowmere]] in 1254 as the eldest son of [[Lord Cedric Fortesque]].
