Martindale's Family Tree

Our hero, Scott Martindale, Sir Medic of the King's Elite, was born Prescott Martin Beilden, the second son of the Duke of Secrest. As a younger son, he was ignored by his father. He was extremely close to his mother, a noblewoman from the neighboring kingdom of Aland, and overprotective of his younger sister, Diana. Martindale's relationship with his older brother is poor at best as they grew up separately and the few times they did meet usually resulted in Reagan beating Martindale up. As for his father... he ignored Martindale for most of his childhood, seeing his younger son as a bothersome pest. When he decided to attend the Royal Institute of Medicine (RIM) instead of the army as his father desired, the duke disowned him.
