Background: Born in 1110 A.D. along the Welsh border near Shrewsbury, England, Qwill's early life was very mundane.  His father was a nobleman's estate manager and his mother, a cook.  Qwill never fit in, his mind was forever wandering and where his mind went, his feet followed.  For years his family tried to rein in his wanderlust but at last his father gave him a job as a forester and allowed him to run free across the Noble's lands.  The English War between Matilda and Stephan raged over the Welsh boarder and brought a new stimuli to the teenage Qwill.  Here was his opportunity to expand his travels!  Against his parents wishes the sixteen year old Qwilleran Ap Rhys crossed into England and joined the forces of Stephan in Shrewsbury.  His first assignment took him south, to Bristol and an introduction to combat.  The young Welshman proved to be handy with the sword and completely without fear.  Within a year his forester skills were recognized and he was moved to a light scouting force.  After two years of spurious fighting, Qwill reached a level of responsibility about that of a squad leader.  Three times his squad was trapped by Matilda's forces and each time Qwill extracted them without casualty.  He gained a reputation as a resourceful and lucky leader.  While patrolling with a larger group, Stephan's forces were attacked by a superior force lead by Robert of Glouchester, Matilda's cousin.  His commander was killed, over half the troop died but under Qwill's leadership the survivors managed to return to friendly lines.  With able commanders becoming a premium, Qwill was appointed as the new captain of the descimated troop of scouts.  For five years he was to command his small unit until it was sent to Shrewsbury as a garrison force under Hugh Beringar.  It was there the Welshman encounted Brother Cadfael, a countryman, a Benedictine monk at the Church of St. Peter and St. Paul.  Cadfael was an old Crusader that took the cowl late in life.  He had a profound effect on Qwill, he awoke in the young man a thirst for knowledge.  Three years of learning to read followed, Qwill ever struggling with the Latin texts of the Church and the Bible.  It all nearly ended one frosty winter night in 1135.  Two children and their nurse disappeared on the road to a nearby Abby and Hugh Beringar send out search parties.  A woman was found frozen in the ice of a stream and Brother Cadfael, something of a sleuth, was sent to investigate.  The night found Qwill and Cadfael together in the forest near a bandit outpost and when three men attack the duo, Qwill defended the monk to the death.  Though Quill killed all three, the monk knew he had taken a mortal wound and did his best to comfort his young friend but at last his eyes closed and Qwilleran Ap Rhys was dead...for about an hour.  With a sudden intake of breath, Qwill's eyes popped open and Brother Cadfael nearly had a heart attack.  It was a mystery that would haunt Cadfael for the rest of his life.  What had brought this man back to life?
Qwilleran did not discover that reason behind this miracle for ten years when he met a man calling himself Adam.  This Adam told him of Immortals and the Gathering, of how there could be only one.  He schooled Qwill in swordplay, increasing his knowledge considerably.  Many times over the next hundred years he would meet up with Adam in his travels across Europe.  He spent ten years in Paris, studying, followed by nearly a hundred in Venice.  Adam disappeared in 1240 and Qwill never saw him again.  Now, over eight hundred years later, Qwill has become a very skilled fighter and successful author of historical fiction and mysteries.

Quote:

Personality: Qwill has lived a long time and has seen nearly everything but he has never, in all these years, lost the capacity to love.  The number of times he has lost a mortal lover or friend is beyond his counting but still he tries, being an incurable romantic.  He is solumn to the world but a friendly, amusing friend.  His life as an Immortal has instilled in him a strong sense of the Law, not man's law so much but the rules of nature and Immortals.  Over the years he has developed a neutral attitude toward good and bad, having come to the realization that Nature is neither and that so is life.  He does not seek Immortal combat but will not back down in the face of it.  Currently he has lost his memory and is living in Miami in the service of a Mr' G.

Powers/Tactics: Qwill is an extremely talented normal in the terms of Champions but his skill with the blade makes him dangerous even to low level paranormals and his regenerative powers make it hard to kill him.

Appearance: Qwill is a ruggedly handsome man in his mid-twenties, with long dark brown hair and eyes.  He is 6' tall and weights 200 pounds.  In all his years he has never lost his Welsh accent but can repress it for short periods.  Because of his Immortal state and the requirements to be prepared to fight at a moments notice, Qwill wears a black duster to conceal his blade.
