You are <span class="mu-s">Bonino de Gusta</span>. But a few months ago you had been but a banking clerk in your hometown of Isedia, the manager of the local operations for the Spisa family bank. You were paid well, and had been content so! Of course, when you had heard that they had been ousted from power and the country had been brought down in conflict, your employment was cut short. Though you'd never held much interest in a soldier's life, when the city had been brought to siege by that rival town of Sonero, you'd had little choice! You led your townsmen to the fight, and then...
"Move back! Don't use your arquebus as a club, it'll just break you idiot!" you scream to your men as they try to fight off the knights awkwardly thrusting their spears upon you.
Your men had been offered up as volunteers for some passing expeditionary army from the <span class="mu-i">Mirevards</span>. You spent months on some siege city, so close yet so far from home, and then as you had hoped it would end, were pulled into some river crossing to fight off a much larger army. You had spent this entire day, from dawn, stuck behind some barriccde, firing endlessly on some men below. When the bridge was finally brought down, you had thought the battle to be over...until you were told of the knights attempting to reach you. You and the other arquebusiers were told to make your way to the forest grove on the west, but halfway across, you realized your men to be far too slow. You would not reach there in time. And so, you choose another goal: the field of gigantic bodies far closer to you. To your good fortune, the Gigantes had been brought low so quickly their corpses were close enough so as to almost entirely prohibit maneuvering.
When you and your men emerged from this grim fortress and unleashed a volley upon the <span class="mu-i">Famiglia di Nera</span>, they panicked, standing in place. By the time they had gathered themselves enough to begin fleeing north, your men and the arquebusiers in the forest were able to fire off another volley, breaking their morale for good. After that, it was but moments until you were met with a charge...yet they were unable to do anything more than nip at the men on the outer edges. The corpses of the giants, armored with bulky plate, were far too wide and tall for even their amazonians to simply jump over. So they stood ground, taking off shots at those who attempted to find a way to cross.
For now, you'll hold - but you're not sure the same can be said of that colonel of yours...
