Simon I of York

Lord Robert Simon of York, better known as the Keeper of the Lost Star or Simon the First was the Lord Commander of the Bloody Royal Knights. He held the power of The Lost Star, the most powerful blade in history, a weapon forged from the remnants of an ancient meteorite. He commanded the Bloody Royal Knights, a renown team of unparalleled swordsmanship.

Rescue Party and Final Defeat
When a scout of Waulki-Talki native's captured the King's Daughter, the Governor ordered the only sensible thing; rescue the Princess, by force rather than threat of force.

With orders coming directly from King Richard himself, the Keeper of the Lost Star took a team of his best knights and advanced toward the Indian encampment. The Northern Legions were fighting in the crusades with Richard, and therefore were unable to support the rescue mission. Before the rescue party arrived, they were ambushed by the tribe's best warriors, and were all killed, leaving the sword of the Lost Star to fall into unworthy hands.

Aftermath
After the defeat of the Expedition at Chippewa, the British Rule over the region fell into chaos. Governor Tarkin, with no military commander, the Northern Legions hundreds of miles away,  and few guards at his manor, was forced to flee to the northern colonies. A once-thought secure region, Chippewa now fell into a haven of scum and villainy, power hungry and fresh out of the fringe of poverty.

Trivia
