Name:
Zachariah (Rye) Sutton
Age:
27
Physical Appearance:
Standing at 5'10, he is tall with reddish hair and pale blue eyes. He is thin but being in the Army for close to ten years has left him with a great deal of muscle. Perhaps 'lean' is the best word to describe him.
Strengths: Strong (physically and mentally), loyal, intelligent
Weaknesses: heavy drinker, reckless, indecisive
Background: Born in 1748, Rye was the only child of a well-to-do couple. His mother died when he was a small child so he was raised by his father and servants. He had been encouraged to marry a young woman from another well-to-do family. However, he fell in love with another young lady named Adeline Pinter. They secretly became engaged. When he did finally tell his father, his father threatened to disown him. Rye had to choose between family and money or Adeline. He chose family and money.
Almost immediately, he regretted it but it was too late. Adeline had killed herself. Distraught with grief and blaming himself, he ran away and enlisted in the Army to get away from everything. Thinking that Rye had run off with Adeline (and not knowing that she was dead), his father wrote him out of his Will.
Rye was seventeen when he enlisted. He wrote to his father once but never received a reply. Five years later he received word that his father had died. Everything went to a distant cousin.
Henry was from a wealthy background. His mother died when he was a small child so he was raised by his father and servants. He had been encouraged to marry a young woman from another well-to-do family. However, he fell in love with Adeline Pinter. They became engaged. When he told his father, his father threatened to disown him. Henry had to choose family and money or Adeline. He chose family and money. Almost immediately Henry regretted it but it was too late. Adeline killed herself. Distraught with guilt, he enlisted in the Army to get away from everything. His father wrote him out. In the army, he was sent to the Colonies. He wrote to his father once but never received a reply. He learned later that he died a couple of years after he arrived in the Colonies. Everything went to a distant cousin.
In 1768 his regiment (14th Foot) was sent to the Colonies to help with the growing tensions there.
