Captain Ruger, the leader of Lord Richter's elite fighters, was consumed by an unquenchable thirst for adventure and a relentless passion to push his limits as a warrior.
His ultimate goal was to become awakened as a true warrior, a feat he believed would bring him the recognition and respect he deserved.
Unlike most villagers, Ruger was an immigrant from the highlands, where his father had once served as a knight in the army of a noble.
However, his father's tragic death in a rivalry war between nobles left Ruger to be without a father at a tender age.

The same noble who had once employed his father mercilessly drove them out of their home, leaving them to face the harsh realities of life in the highlands.
