       Biography
       Twenty-nine years ago in the Crown city of Kimlasca-lanvaldear,
       an infant was delivered to the city orphanage. His parents were
       completely unknown, as he was discovered in a basket on the
       orphanage steps. (It was rumoured at that time that Lady Natalia
       Fabre had had a child out of wedlock, but then, so did a lot of
       women of much lowlier birth.) Either way, the child (who may or
       may not have been of noble blood) was taken in and named
       Ratisbon Schwann (due to the blanket in the crib, which bore the
       emblem of a swan, and the fact he was found on St. Ratisbon's
       Eve.
       As he grew up, Schwann proved a studious boy, and started
       training for the priesthood. Although proving intelligent and a
       good orator, Schwann's somewhat easygoing view of the faith and
       his conviction that "even the worst can be redeemed" led him to
       be accused of heresy by a crusty old fire-and-brimstone
       preacher, Malkuth Karamazoff. As such, Schwann ended up in front
       of an ecclesiastical court in Cantabria, seat of the Crown
       orthodox church.
       Needless to say, Schwann, who conducted his own defence, ended
       up wiping the floor with Karamazoff's arguments, while producing
       compelling evidence that Karamazoff had been dabbling in black
       magic in his spare time. Impressed, the council of elders of
       Cantabria invited Schwann to live in the city, where he
       proceeded to drive the council mad with constant clever
       arguments against taking the holy book too literally and his
       stand against prejudices.
       The one exception to the council's general annoyed bemusement
       towards Schwann was Arch-lector Kingston, the youngest and most
       progressive of the arch-lectors. Becoming great friends, the
       pair would often stay up half the night discussing theological
       issues. However, not even this powerful patron could prevent
       Schwann from eventually being sent to the far end of Kernow, to
       the town of Chaosgate. A perfect answer, the other arch-lectors
       said. Let him go there, to try and bring faith to the faithless.
       And if a Chaos beast should eat him...oh dear, how sad, never
       mind!
