Hugh



Born during the middle ages, Hugh is among the oldest characters in the Bullshit. During a battle in the first crusade, Hugh was killed, but fortunately for him, God had revived him, telling him that his purpose now was to help people. Managing to survive till present day, along with Nicolas (Nick), he decided to stay in Seattle, now helping out the Mai's.

Appearance
Because of this, it is mostly unknown what Hugh actually looks like. Although he did used to wear plated armour, over time he found that it was best not to weigh himself down, as technology was improving. To compensate, Hugh trained himself relentlessly until he got to a point where he can resist some bullets. Now he just wears bullet resistant armour covering his arms, and the rest is classic crusader attire.

Personality
Hugh is normally very friendly and will often try to help whenever possible. Although he was chosen by God to help people, which is what he tells people if they ask why he helps, the real reason is that his Village was destroyed by the Seljuk Turks under Malik Shah I so he doesn't want anyone else to go through that as well. He doesn't get angry often, and even if he does, he quickly calms down, but anything to do with the Turks or Malik Shah will piss him off quite quickly. Being a knight, he does follow some codes, or at least tries to, for example he isn't meant to take his helmet off, which he does to comfort people, other than that he won't let anyone else see his face, especially if they try to take it off themselves. Only David King, Young Mai, Warzone Mai, Ella, Charlotte and Maya have seen his face.

Backstory
Hugh grew up in Georgia during the middle ages, so he was surrounded by death, disease and raids. But at around the age of 15, an army of Seljuk Turks had invaded and started massacring everyone. Although raids like these were common, this one was on a much larger scale, as other villages were also devastated. Fortunately, Hugh's village was near a harbour so he could easily escape across the Black Sea. Seeing everyone else get slaughtered, Hugh fled to a boat, where he lasted for months drifting across the Sea. Afraid of settling down only to be attacked again, Hugh was constantly on the move, making his way across Europe. Eventually he ended up in Germany after 5 years of moving around Europe. At this time Hugh was actually called Hiu, but when he arrived in Germany, he decided to actually settle down. So he learnt the language and trained to be a knight.

He was 22 when the first crusade began, and Hugh saw it as an opportunity to retake his village. However during his first battle, him and his army was completely wiped out. After his death, he met God who decided to revive him, and make him considerably stronger and make him live forever, on the bases he'd defend others, like the people who was in his village. Hugh came back and continued to partake in the crusade, but not joining up with an army, instead he fought to defend villages, although he still resented the Turks, especially Malik Shah who was the one that commanded the attack.

Hugh went through the years, eventually meeting 99 other soldiers of various backgrounds, including a Viking called Nicolas whom he began to see as an older brother. Hugh would go through the middle ages with those other soldiers defending people. Although as time passed by, and technology improved, some managed to adapt and use guns. But as WW1 approached, ironically the ones that incorporated the technology were the ones that died the fastest. During this, Hugh also moved to England, where he changed his name to Hugh, and learnt their language, although he could already speak it quite well. But WW1 and 2 killed the vast majority of the soldiers, Thorn (their leader) also losing his life. With that everyone went on their separate ways, Hugh continued defending people in wars, Nick continued to partake in the wars, as he enjoyed the thrill of almost dying etc. After the cold war, there wasn't much war, despite conflict in the middle east, but after a few years living there helping people, Hugh thought it best to let other militaries take control, as he had almost died. But he did manage to get multiple family's away from the wars to start a new life somewhere else.

From there he decided to visit every country and get to know all the languages and cultures each country has, eventually ending up in Seattle.
