Born the son of Alous and Emilia Fogbrooke Robaire only knew the frontier town which bares his name from the moment he was born. The son of a disgraced lesser Dalriada Kingdom Baronet and his commoner wife, Robaire remembers very little of his father, only that he was a bright and shining man who died when Robaire was only eight years old. After the death of his father Robaire and his mother were swept up by the village, for Robaire this meant a revolving door of care takers and nannies whom took care of him whenever his mother had work to do for the village, which was often.

One of only a few children his age Robaire had few friends as a child, resulting in his somewhat stiff and formal personality. The love of the village did however have a very strong impact on Robaire, making him very protective of the people of the village - a fact further pushed by his mother who told him how important it was he become a fine leader and care for those around him.

This obligation permeated his entire life, causing him to pursue his education with a fervor few children show for academics. His natural tendency did show in his love of military history, swords and the tales of knights. When he wasn't studying or wracking his mind about his role as a leader in the future Robaire was practicing his sword skills or learning the best tactics for a small force to beat a larger one.

It is this interest which made him suggest to his mother the forming a Fogbrooke Militia, with him as it's lead as a teenager. Rounding up few able bodied second sons and daughters of the local village, Robaire formed the unit of those whose lives would not cripple the farm or forestry with their loss. He armed them from his own allowance, and trained them as best as a teen without a teacher of his own beyond books could.

By his late teens his force of five, four men and a single woman was the first dedicated fighting force Fogbrooke had since it's foundation. Any need for defense had come down to villagers picking up spears, but now with a dedicated force Robaire set out to prove their worth. Like any village in the frontier of the Spine Orcs had occasionally been a problem, small tribes pushed out of the great wood by more powerful tribes sometimes stealing goats or burning some crops.

Robaire intended to stop any of that, and so led his militia into wood to hunt the orcs. Over the next six years Robaire led dozens of expeditions, never losing a soldier and killing dozens of orcs and lesser threats in that time. Sadly his time playing general came to an abrupt end shortly after his twenty second birthday with the sudden passing of his mother and the thrusting of Fogbrooke Village lordship onto his shoulders.

There was no more time for expeditions into the wood with his soldiers, he had nearly two hundred souls to lead into greater prosperity.
