Origins
Arthur Lines was once an environmentalist in the SPF, keeping his activities outside of any Outsider towns. His aim was to ward people away from the environmentally damaging roads, and this did involve the odd death. What is a the loss of a couple of short human lives compared to the loss of the ancient forests? He made sure he never killed anyone within a town's confines, aware of the law of each town, but when he was restocking his first aid kits in his hometown of Derby, the captain of the 1st Derby Privateers accused him on murdering on Derby soil. Without giving Arthur the opportunity to explain his actions, he was attacked and killed. That would have been the end of it, but for the mysterious ways of Shartak. Arthur awoke months later and vowed to take the fight to the Privateers.
He began a campaign against the Privateers, slaying any he came across anywhere. At this point he was content with this single clan, slaying them with little loss in return, but then the Derby Hospitallers began attacking him too. It was this action which opened his eyes: Derby was being oppressed by the Eastern Federation, which was made up of these two clans. They operated under the impression of a police force and social workers, but Arthur could now see through this illusion. He pledged himself to fighting this dictatorship to liberate Derby alongside any other Derbian who were not blinded by the Eastern Federation's lies and pretences, and so the Derby Protectors were born.
