who are you?

Sir James A:
I'm not sure, actually. Is there a european equivalent to Sun Tzu? Strategy and philosophy are pretty big for me.

SirNathanQ:
You might look up Gonzalo de Cordoba. He was pretty into that kinda thing. I'm sure there's a perfect Marcus Aurelius knight somewhere...  :)

Sir William:
My general description:

"Hither he came, black-haired, sullen-eyed, sword in hand, a thief, a reaver, a slayer, with gigantic melancholies and gigantic mirth, to tread the jeweled thrones of the Earth under his booted and armored feet."

Wish as I might, I can only aspire to the heights of chivalry, but my own internal issues make it damn hard to be chivalrous and upright all of the time.  I settle for fighting injustice, protecting my loved ones, upholding my brethren and not slaughtering innocents or idiots...questionable on the last one.  I doubt there ever was a knight worth knowing or reading about who was as conflicted as I.  I mean one who was not a traitor or knave.

SirNathanQ:
Sir William, I doubt there was ever a knight without some form of conflict, even among the greats.  :)

Sir William:
You've a point and I understand it - even so.
