Carles Wheats the Champion Pig Wrestler
-
Every year peasants and farmers make their way to Peltarch. They come primarily because the farms can only support a certain level of population. So, just as the farms feed the city, the excess farm population supplies the city with basic manpower.
Carles is much like any other young farmer that makes his way to Peltarch. Carles had the good fortune of surviving droughts, marauders, predators, and poisonous creatures. But he had the misfortune of not being needed at the farm. His 6 older siblings already more than sufficed to work what land they had.
Carles was blessed with above average strength and a sturdy physique. As a child he enjoyed wrestling with other kids. When time allowed, he and other children would go about pretending to be knights and fighting each other with sticks.
Oh his 16th birthday, Carles won the pig wrestling competition at the faire, of which he is very proud. He was levied by the local lord one year, where he received rudimentary training as a man at arms. Two years later, Carles’ family sent him off to Peltarch, armed only with his knowledge for growing turnips, keeping the pointy end of a spear away from him, and pig wrestling.
Carles arrived to Peltarch full of hope and innocence. He hopes to find work as a guard or soldier very soon, and is always training for that next pig wrestling event at the coming faire.
