Michel de Burgoyne was raised as an adopted son of a landed family in the duchy of Burgundy. He suffered his first death in 1461, when he drowned while crossing a river.

In the following decades, de Burgoyne lived by his sword, a mercenary, he would work for anyone who paid him. Although he was only a mediocre, albeit arrogant swordsman, he succeeded because he went all out in battles with Immortals, and his all or nothing strategy won through.

In 1670, de Burgoyne traveled to Scotland, and there he challenged Duncan MacLeod. He lost his head to MacLeod.

Trivia[]

de Burgoyne used a Charles V bronze shortsword.
