Background

Trained in medicine and theology, Boutros joined the ancient Monastery of St. Anthony after completing his degrees and has spent forty-six years there as a monk. The sword passed to him just two years after he joined, when its previous owner died of injuries sustained during a fight with the Denaarians during the Six-Day War in 1967. It had been in the hands of the monks for centuries and was passed on after a series of tests of faith. He travels extensively, fighting the Order, but always returns to the Monastery to live his simple, monastic life when he is done. He is the most "on mission" of the Knights, only fighting the Denaarians. He is very concerned with Raúl's focus on the Red Court. He used to be a more accomplished swordsman, but the years are taking their toll. He makes up for it with an unparalleled knowledge of the Fallen.
