[edit] Biography
Born is Saxe-Coburg, in the northern side of Ainor. The young Maddox learned to explore around the area well. Growing up bigger than the normal child, he had a lot of fun searching what was remained of the Sundering ruins. Never unsupervised though, as he was normally accompanied by his older brother, Maxan. Maxan was striving to be a Grail Knight, and like his brother was large in stature. Learning to fight with a sword from an early age, his brute strength served him well in little adventures with his brother or father.
About the time Maddox was 7, there was a skirmish that broke out, requiring his father to leave the farm to check the matter. Some local farmers had been plagued by ravaging beasts, and tried to make a stand. They drove the beasts away but at the cost of a few farmers lives. Upon hearing the news, Maxan, being 10 years older than his brother, joined the military post haste. Maddox was left to tend the farm alone for years, all the while training in secret until his 15th birthday.
When he turned 15, he elected to join the church, as an apprentice knight. Hoping someday to be able to use his skills to later join the Ainor military. He learned the ways of the Thanedoms, and upheld his moral and religious value extremely high. Perhaps only second to his love for battle and combat. Having such a fearsome size and presence, he quickly started to gain reputation as he joined the Ainor ranks. This helped boost him into a high standing in the military, as he strove not only for excellence but to find out about his family.
By the time he turned 20, he began his trial to become a Grail Knight. Maddox knew that soon, he would be allowed to contribute to Ainor's well being, as for the whole of the world. Just a little bit past his 21st birthday, the giant from Saxe-Coburg was made a Grail Knight, and part of his dream was completed. He was assigned a new post and was given a rank worthy of a Grail Knight, even one just starting out. Upon news of his achievement, he was greeted warmly by his master, the Holy Captain, as well as the King himself.
Maddox met the prince when he was a young Colonel for the Ainori army. With request from King Meinhard, Maddox began to train a young Ulrich in the art of combat and warfare. It was about the same time, that Meinhard gave permission for Maddox to court his younger daughter, Verena. With his hidden talent among Ainor as an upcoming strategist, the Grail Knight trained and honed his skill as much possible. Keeping in as much contact and communication with the prince Ulrich, and his family friend King Meinhard. Meinhard having known the Reinbecht family since his youth, and both families having relationships past, made him someone he knew and trusted well. He promoted the young Maddox at the age of 22, to General.
The relationship between Maddox and Verena was also growing, building with it talks of what might be a likely choice for marriage. With the von Reichter family deferring there crowns, such as Anastasia and later Ulrich. Maddox continued to strive himself further in skills, getting stronger the more time passed. Continually, he fights for the King's vision of a Holy Empire, and the desire to unite a family that has been torn.
