Personal history
Ser Edmer Ronk, was a knight during man's department of VeCoastal and before the venture to The Isles. He was known for his unusual height and brave feats for his then King, Jonas Moses. Parents, brothers, sisters and elders alike all tell the stories of Ser Edmers quests to young children before bedtime, eventful and inspiring the Tall Knight has become quite the popular tale. The stories range from detailing his upbringing as a peasant boy, in the sprawling undercity that surrounds Sesea to his travels beyond the ocean to unknown lands such as the mythical Reelonain Constellation. Ser Edmer is portrayed as kind, thankful and selfless, all great qualities of a perfect knight. Those from the Isles end his story claiming that he used other realmly magic taught to him by a fairy named Chooloo, to immortalise himself in the great treacherous Mountains of Colshier. Bounding his spirit and material body into the dark stone and turning the small lumps of earth into the titanic spectacle they are today. Strangely enough, another side of the story claims that Ser Edmer Ronk never travelled outside of the land, not even as far as Shigamor. Many who support this claim believe that the knight died during the Battle for the Mountainside, slain in 1 on 1 combat by “The Griffin” Prince Oakly Flemming, whilst participating in the Rivian assault on Sesea. As much as the two sides tell their tales, no one will ever truly know of what happened to a knight who lived 5,000 years ago, long before human colonisation of The Isles.

Accomplishments & Achievements
During his time Edmer represented the crown in one trial by combat. Gangrious The Biter was held on multiple charges of kinslaying and outlawry. He was brought to Rivia for his trial, the criminal quickly interrupted the council shortly after commencement and demanded a trial by combat. Famous knight Ser Edmer Ronk was provided as champion by then King, Jonas Moses. Once the trial commenced Gangrious attempted to wade his way into range with his two single hand battle axes, Ronk was far too experienced to let a savage within scuffling range and kept him at a distance. The Biter was a skilled barbaric type fighter, known for using dirty tactics such as biting to gain an upper hand in battle. Ronk outsmarted his opponent, luring the man in and countering his wild swings, the battle lasted five minutes before the knight cut a leg clean off and beheaded the accused.
