A simple horseguard ?!

[Becca v.Radunkel]

Becca von Radunkel is the latest descendant of an old-established minor noble family. For centuries the von Radunkels have served loyal to the throne in Britain. First as a simple member of the horse guard, but after one of her ancestors saved the actual king´s live the family was regarded with a noble title and a small estate in the area of todays Trinsic. Though the origin of the name is lost in the past, the von Radunkels wear it with pride and honor while serving the King in Britain.
Becca was born 32 years ago, and though her father hoped to get a son to continue the names line, he never showed any disappointment towards her gender.
Soon after her birth her mother died by the hands of roaming orcs. Her father never married again, and so Becca grew up without the "disturbing" hands of a woman. She was trained by her father and his old guard companions to become a respected paladin and fighter for the light. Especially her abilities of mounted fighting made her father proud. Riding she seems to fuse with her horse.
After her fathers retirement as a captain of the Royal Horseguard - some say he was forced for not taking part in the courts small intrigues for power, some say he just realized that his honorfull way of life did not fit anylonger to the developement in Britian - the small family returned to the families estate and led a withdrawn life defending their lands against the roaming evil. During that time a dwarf got staffed by her father, though unusual clean shaven, but with some interesting abilities that equalized the missing beard, and he got a real friend to the woman.
During one supply mission towards Trinsic Becca got involved in a small struggle and defended an apparently innocent stranger to a bunch of footpads. After her arrival in Trinsic she got astonishingly accused for street robbery by even those footpads, now dressed in expensive clothes. She had disturbed some Trinsic minor nobles with their so called "hunting game".
Only with the help of her dwarven friend and a bribery of prison guards she was able to return to her father. He silently listend to her story and was able to calm her down not to take revenge by doing a private "hunting game" around Trinsic. Instead he told her of a Baron he once met at the king´s court in Britain, the Lord of a small city called Cove.
So Becca joined the ranks of Cove´s militia, to live a life according to her understanding of justice and honor.
