Sir Peter Burgons

Sir Peter of Burgonshire, sometimes known as "the Knight of Time", is a medieval knight who has abandoned his era to become a Time Agent. While still bemused at the workings of the strange new universe he finds himself in, he has proven his courage many a time in battle, fighting alongside--and sometimes against--the most powerful entities in known reality.

Description
Sir Peter is a moderately tall man, with pale skin, blue eyes, and dark, mildly unkempt hair. He has been described as hansome by ladies of his own time, though individuals from other time periods have disagreed with this. He is very muscular, and often wears his plate armor.

Personality
While he often appears arrogant to those unfamiliar with medieval culture, Peter is in actuality a rather reserved man, infrequently confiding his true thoughts to those around him. To some extent, he has always felt out of place, and consequently has few true friends. An exception to this would be Bethany Vane, with whom he is on very good terms, and the Doctor, whom he trusts and respects.

Biography
Sir Peter was born in the year 1342 A. D., the fifth son of a minor nobleman. Due to his relatively low social status, he was generally disregarded. He was, however, allowed to serve as a page in the nearby Vane Manor, and at the age of fourteen became his elder brother Simon's squire. He was knighted at the age of twenty-five, a year earlier than he was supposed to, due to courage displayed at the Battle of Nájera.

Upon his return to England, Sir Peter began to make a habit of patrolling the woods around Burgonshire, which were infested with knaves and scoundrels. One day while doing so, he stumbled across Robert of Locksley, a nobleman who had been cast from his domain by a wicked sherrif. Robert spoke to him of terrible things that lay through a glowing air distortion in the forest. Sir Peter ran through it to adventure... and he's been running ever since.

Appearances
Sir Peter is the main protagonist of The Knight of Time. He has also appeared in a number of role-playing games, a list of which can be found on his page on Heroes of the Multiverses Wiki.
