Biography
Caer Lupin was born to Joseph Lupin, a miller, and Anna Grace, a gypsy. His mother died shortly after bearing him and his twin brother, Myra. Caer and Myra grew up closely; swordfighting, wrestling, boxing, and racing each other all the time. The Lupin family had more money then most of the people in the town of Agger, but they were still very poor. The two boys got new clothes twice a year and got a meager amount of spending money when the traveling salesmen came to town. One fateful day, however, an Illuminati raiding party invaded their little village. Joseph was taken into captivity to be sold as a slave and the Illuminati left, leaving behind them a ghost town. All but three of the natives had been killed or captured, including Myra. Filled with an unsatiable rage, Caer, together with his two friends Adam Jr. Tockett and Gelu Lucius, left Agger to hunt down the Illuminati.
Adam, Caer, and Gelu traveled from the village that they had called home for their entire lives and headed for the capital city of Titania Assault, Xenarthra. There they all joined the Army of Titans to help fight their region's enemies and hopefully pay back the Illuminati. All three young men moved quickly through the ranks and soon they all stood ready to take positions as officers in the Army of Titans.
But right at the end of their training, the democracy of Titania Assault was overthrown and a dictator rose to power. Adam, Caer, and Gelu were all asked to pledge their loyalty to Emperor Xiphias and they agreed. The three generals were then sent off to their first campaign, the invasion of TEAL.
Caer Lupin's army, Den Caedo, was sent in first to scout around the region and report back to Adam Jr., who was the strike team leader. When Den Caedo arrived in TEAL, however, they were greeted by a deserted capital city. Runners carried the message to Adam Jr. and his army, Aether, along with that of Gelu Lucius's army, Flos Robur, seized the capital without any opposition. After helping Adam set-up a temporary headquarters, Caer left TEAL and returned to Xenarthra with his army. Upon arriving, he was told that the Emperor had died! He immediately requested that Adam be informed and he asked for an audience with Empress Pronuba. She granted him an audience the next day and he arrived before her to argue his idea. She listened to what he had to say about his longtime friend, Adam Jr. Tockett, and sent him away. He heard nothing from her and finally, Aether arrived at the capital. At the funeral, Empress Pronuba startled the assembled by announcing that her late husband had asked Adam Jr. to take his place! Caer knew that it had nothing to do with Xiphias, but said nothing to his friend. Adam accepted and began to rework his newfound Empire into something to be feared.
The first action that Adam Jr. took was to change his name to something less plain than his birth name. He donned the moniker Azotochtli and prepared another invasion. He promoted Caer Lupin to Warlord General and made Den Caedo into Caer's elitist division of cloodthirsty and ruthless warriors. Caer left Xenarthra to begin to recruit and train his new band of warriors. Travelling back near his hometown of Agger, the Warlord heard rumors of a bounty hunter named Filix Nysus. He and Den Caedo passed through the country unhared, so he dismissed the stories as foolish tales. Eventually, Caer arrived in the heart of the nation of Guerilla Wolves and established his headquarters, Caedo. Caer Lupin left his trusted commander to train the new recruits that they had picked up on their journey and he left for Xenarthra with the veteran warriors of Den Caedo. The next target, chosen by Caer, was set as FrostCloud.
Just before the raiding party set out, an ambassador arrived breathless at the palace gates. It was an emissary from the Peculiar Rodents Alliance requesting urgent military aid in the 1st of may revolutionary front. Azotochtli agreed to help and personally led Aether into battle. Den Caedo proved their worth on the battlefield and the capital was seized. After instating a PRA representative in the capital, Azotochtli immediately turned his attention to FrostCloud once more. Den Caedo charged right in and took out many defenses, but in an interesting turn of events, it was Flos Robur that held the capital in a siege by the end of the first day of battle. After collecting his officers around him and organizing things a little better, Azotochtli strolled into the capital and easily wrestled power from the previous delegate. Yet another colony of the glorious Empire had been annexed!
The next colonization was Zamboni. Zamboni was a beautiful region filled with exotic plants, interesting animals, and large cities of technologically advanced citizens. In fact, its populace was so wrapped up in its technological advancements that no one noticed Den Caedo marching side-by-side with Aether into the capital city until it was too late. The natives protested but Azotochtli held the delegacy and added another colony to his ever-expanding Empire. The addition of a third large colony let Caer Lupin return to Caedo to check on the progress of his elite troops.
Upon arriving in his headquarters in Guerilla Wolves, Caer saw that his hard work and vision had fianlly payed off. Camped around the border to Caedo were disciplined, fearless, hardened warriors ready for battle of any magnitude. Caer Lupin smiled when he thought back to the days of the Illuminati raids and swore that he would have his revenge. All he needed was a little more time...
