Theodoric van Orton is the reigning Duke of Normandie and a key figure in the resurgence of Norman identity in Micras’ Keltian northwest. Born in 1710 in Hurmu, of Norman heritage, his life has become the stuff of legend: from a military dropout and wrestling champion to the iron-willed leader who, in 1744, reclaimed his people's homeland in the fires of war.
Personal life
Raised in Hurmu among a community of Norman exiles, Theodoric was steeped in the sorrow of a lost nation and tales of ancestral valor. As a youth, he enrolled in the Hurmu Military Academy, where his raw strength and tactical promise stood out — but he quickly grew disillusioned with its rigid codes and foreign doctrines. He left the academy in his late teens, disappearing from official records.
Re-emerging as a professional wrestler in the early 1730s under the name “The Mountain of Orton”, Theodoric built a reputation across Hurmu, Keltia, and parts of Benacia for his brutal fighting style and nationalist oratory. He turned arenas into platforms for rekindling Norman identity, especially among the displaced and dispossessed.
