Bio: Micah was born a serf under the rule of King Arthur Pendragon.
He lived a normal peasant life until his sister was raped and murdered
by five of Arthur's nights. Vowing revenge, he managed to become a
serving boy at the palace, but the anger of the knights who'd killed
his sister caused him to have to flee. He traveled to France, where
he convinced a local lord that he was a freeman, instead of a peasant.
There, he adopted the name of Michel De Verdeur, the French translation
of his true name.
In France he became a page, squire, and finally, a knight, with the
possible assistence of Merlin, whom he'd met at least twice by this
time. He killed one of the knights he hated, and later was sent to
Arthur's court to petition for land, on the behalf of his lord.
Arthur kept him there with delays, and he soon became famous and
infamous in the court. He was present for the final battle between
Arthur and Mordred, in the process accomplishing his vow of vengeance.
He and Bedevire took Arthur to the lake, where his body was claimed
by Morgan, his sister.
Michel returned to his lord for a time, but was soon, "awakened" by
the Immortal Kurgan, who for reasons unknown, left him alive.
He was befriended and trained by King Tut, and spent the majority of
his years avoiding the game.
He fought alongside Robin Hood's men, and survived the Titanic. He
currently lives in Washington DC with his mortal lover.
