Rafael de la Vega

Sir Rafael de la Vega was a mortal Dark Age Knight who joined the Order of the Poor Knights of the Passion of the Cross of Acre. He was Delgado's lieutenant.

He pursues after Silverfur, but falls to the effect of her Gift and attacks anyone close to him in a berserk fury. After harming three pilgrims, it was enough to convince the Poor Knights that the lieutenant was insane and "possessed".

Biography

Sir Rafael found himself in the ranks of the Poor Knights almost by default. The youngest of four children (three sons, one daughter) of an Iberian nobleman of middling means, he had no illusions about his place in life, knowing from the very start that the most he could expect to inherit was a sword and doing his best not to resent that face. When his father elected to enroll him with the Poor Knights of the Cross, he was stunned; no one, including himself, had considered him to be of the sort of temperament that lent itself to Holy Orders of any type - which, of course, may have been the point. His temperament still doesn't lend itself very well to the religious life, despite his best efforts to accustom himself to living under the rule of the Knights; he is simply, by nature, too in love with the world to successfully deny himself its pleasures for long. This is not to say that he doesn't take his duties seriously, for he does; would that he gave as much consideration to his vows of chastity.

Still young, Sir Rafael has a beautiful, boyish face and dark, lustrous hair. While his vows and his lifestyle don't permit much in the way of niceties, he always manages to look clean and rested.
