History
Michael White grew up with one rule: The strong make the rules. His youth was spent joining petty street gangs and fighting rival gangs. There his size and strength were feared and earned him respect. When the Hamidon Wars began and the world fell into chaos, White saw an opportunity to rebuild the world stronger than before.
In the face of global annihilation, the land had turned lawless. White traveled the American Midwest, gathering whatever survivors he could find. He adopted the name Marauder and led his people in a long, bitter fight for survival. His self-appointed job was to restore order where chaos had taken hold. Only Marauder could muster any sort of authority in the region.
As Marauder traveled from town to town, city to city, he encountered more and more anarchy and was forced to stamp out petty raiders, warring gangs, and self-absorbed warlords. As the major population centers were overcome with the Devouring Earth, Marauder was the only thing standing between the scores of refugees and certain death. He saved as many as he could.
After the wars ended and Hamidon had been defeated, Emperor Cole and his Praetorian Guard came over the Rockies, uncertain if they would find any survivors. What they found amazed them. Not only had the people survived, they had managed to thrive under Marauder's leadership and strength. Normal men and women without super powers had defied the odds. Cole was duly impressed.
For his uncommon valor, Michael White was offered a place at Emperor Cole's side as head security of the new world order. He reluctantly left his flock, saying farewell to his brave comrades-in-arms, and embraced his new calling to shepherd the safety of all Praetoria. The years of hardship had paid off, and now Michael White is living his dream of a stronger, safer world.
