Wars of the Roses (1455 - 1485)

Men of Warwick


   

Ruel Magnan (Ruel Karas) 

Ruel was born in Provance, France. After his father's death, Ruel joined Warwick's guard while they were stationed in Calais. A year later, Ruel went to England with the guard when the Earl  went back to Warwick Castle. During 1460, Ruel fought in the battles of North Hampton, Wakefield, the second battle of St. Albans and the bloodiest, Towton. 

Prone to mumbling, Ruel was heard to say, "I don't know what is with these English and their winter campaigns. I long to see my family again and to feel the warmth of the sun of southern France."
