Marcus Victus

History
He was once a soldier in the Legions of Carhryst. He had joined, like many others to escape the life of poverty, during the Great war of Eastern Aggression. He and many others like him marched to defend their land. He was not particularly strong, agile nor good with a blade. He was however scared and many men mocked him for this. Many labelled him a coward but without fear there can be no courage and courage he would show. In the first engage many of the men who mocked Markus now walked with their legs quivering and many crying as the arrows hit their shields. Then came the crash, when shield wall met shield wall. Carnage beset Markus’s unit as their Centurion was killed. Markus seeing the men panicking quickly barked out orders that he heard countless times before in practice and to his surprise the men performed the manoeuvre. This had saved many of the men’s lives and they all looked to Markus for further instruction. He continued issuing the orders and fighting and to his surprise they made it out.

He would by the end of his career reach the rank of Grand Marshal of Carhyst(the highest rank in the Carhyst empire awarded to this day to only 2 others). It is said that his highest priority was always the protection of his men and thus as general his men were completely loyal. He is deemed one of history’s greatest generals. It is thanks to his efforts that Carhyst boasts an enormous empire and a formidable army.

He would die as a humble hero in the town he fought to save as a farmer and not as a soldier. He was ascended for his strategic genius and for his sacred view on life.

Worship
There are not many churches dedicated to Markus however he his worshipped by many soldiers and mercenaries. A simple soldiers prayer to him does exist.
