  • Date of birth: 1656
  • Date of death: 1721
  • Job: General of Qazoxian Army during 1st Qazoxian Civil War/The Insanican Uprising
  • Reason for fame: Under siege with 17,000 men in Lorax City from October 16-20th, 1688 by over 32,000 Rebel troops, a daring midnight raid, lead by Lee, on the Morning of the 20th lead to the loss of 5,000 rebels, while Lee lost only 300 of the 1200 men he attacked with. The stunning raid andd subsequent "Brickwalling" of the rebels at Lorax City, gave Lee his nickname and turned around the war for Qazox, which at that point had lost 75% of its territory to the rebels. The tide of the war changed and within 18 months, the war was over. If not for the raid and the "brickwalling", quite possibly Qazox would not exist today. In 1929, General Lee's Cavalry Sabre, missing since 1701, was found in the residence of his decendant, Roger Lee, (a great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grand nephew of the General). The Sabre however has fallen into great dis-repair, and as of yet, no pictures of the famous sword are currently available. It has been authenticated by both Carbon14-dating and by 3 independent historical authenticators.
