History
Once upon a time… well don’t all fairy tales start with once upon a time? Stop interuptin’ me. Yeah, I can kind of remember a time back before everything happened. I used to love the back woods of Colorado or somethin’. It was kind of nice, it felt all warm like. Except for when it was winter, then it was cold. But that’s just dreams now. It’s not like I can go and get that life back, right? See they didn’t have anything beyond mundane cares. Well, hell. Not a fraking care in the world. Wish I could have that life again, but y’know the saying about wishes and fishes. There’s another life now. It’s called survival of the fittest. Law of the Jungle, well concrete and steel jungle anyways. Strong survive, the weak live in fear. That’s just the way it is. Me, I’m a force of fraking nature. I’m doing my part for nature. Yeah, enforcing that law.
Why do you care anyways? All that pyscho babble bullshit you’re spouting doesn’t exist. Happiness is an illusion, a fantasy. You are either strong or you're a victim. People only do things in this world because of fear and greed.
Background:
- Once a fairly decent hard working young man from the foothills of the Rocky Mountains, Wilhelm was twisted by fear and brutality into a vicious and brutal monster. He was the favored servant of the Duke of the Nine Keys. Wilhelm was used by his keeper to torment other changelings. Many of his victims can still remember him and his torments. Often he was dispatched to bring back errant changelings who had tried to escape. During this time he fought many like The Captain who had tried to keep him from getting his targets. Other times he fought for the Duke of the Nine Keys in brutal pit matches. Victory wasn’t always the goal. Sometimes it was simply for the sheer brutality and spectacle of it. Wilhelm grew to appreciate these matches, as it was there where he could show his keeper the gratitude for his favor. When the Duke of the Nine Keys visited other Fae, he would bring Wilhelm along as his loyal pet. This all ended after an incident involving The Ballerina. The Duke was enraged that his favored servant had lost him face with the other fae. In a performance for many of the other nobles, Wilhelm’s keeper showcased his most insidious tortures yet. This left Wilhelm’s once chiseled features shattered and cracked. After this incident Wilhelm became even more brutal and vicious. He tried time and time again to regain The Duke’s favor. One day as he was getting ready to attack another group of changeling who were making a break for it, he paused and followed them instead. Draco Archer decided to let Wilhelm follow instead of losing him in the hedge.
- Now that he is free, Wilhelm has been courted by the Summer court. He is struggling to cope with a reality in which he feels out of time and place in. Wilhelm drinks heavily and is often cheerfully confused. Other times when he is lucid, he has a depth of rage and hatred that causes others to flinch from him. It is also during those moments when he wishes for everyone to taste a little of what he felt. He wants them to know pain and to know fear. Since his return, he has been hired by many changelings to do what he does best. Most recently he is often seen in the company of Paladin who he acts as a bodyguard and muscle for.
- Wilhelm has sworn to become as strong as he can, because the day will come when the Duke comes back for him, and he will be ready for the vicious little goblin.

Words of the Strong
This won’t be quick, this won’t be pleasant... for you.
Sometimes, it’s just feels better to use your fists. You get to know someone that way. There is not a truer form of expression. You can really know what someone is made of by fighting them.
Oh that, don’t worry your little head about that feeling, that’s just weakness leaving the body.
I need an axe. Axes show you really care about your work.
I ain't no god damn hippy to hold your hand
There’s only two choices in this world, be strong or live in fear.
Good deeds? What, you think I'm a boyscout or something? Fuck off. Good deeds only get you hurt.
Shaddup in there, I'm tryin to think
he don't look so pretty with a big axe in 'is head.
Words of the Wise
(Feel free to add your own quotes about Wilhelm.)
"His rage is an awesome sight indeed. Something to inspire someone to let loose their bladder." -Barbas
"He's got potential. If only he would actually control that rage into a disciplined fury I wonder how some of our fights would have gone" -The Captain
"There may come a day when someone comes asking to pay price for a toll for Wilhelm. I'll go ask him how much over a few brews. If that price is met I'm sure Wilhelm and I will talk again. He'd do the same for me." - Gilded
"Mr. Whilhelm is a dear friend and a worthy associate. I would, however, endeavor to remain on his good side. The people who don't seldom live to regret it." - Paladin
"Wilhelm? Well, he's had it just as rough- if not rougher- than most of us. I mean come on, I've spent more time with him than anyone else has and I'm still alive. I wouldn't have gotten outta there without him. But all those tales of his strength and anger... true. And if you bring him into a fury, you'll have to deal with me if you survive the ordeal." - Jealous Jo
"One of these days he's gonna cross that line, where righteous anger becomes unfocused fury. I'm not sure what'll happen on that day, I just know that I'll be there... to bring him back... or put him down." - Horace "Race" Ardent
"Well, when you're as wee as I am, anything that big and angry is something to be avoided. Unfortunately, I can't do that, so I do the next best thing - buy him a beer when I'm in town, then get out of the way" - Speedy G
"He's the mountain, I'm the shadow. Trifle with my motleymate all you wish. You'll realize the relevance when we trifle back in unison." - Vestigere the Usurper
"Weeks! It took me f'ing weeks to grow my top teeth back, unbelieveably painful too. Cannot believe that bastich got away with my teeth still in him." ~Old Hob
"He saved me. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you." Cries softly. - Ballerina
Lamentations of the Weak
Paladin Software – Wilhelm is rumored to be the inspiration for some of the more violent games.
"It's rumored he only screamed in pain once and his screams went on day and night for a full week. No one is certain for sure why it happened. Someone said it had to do with a ballerina. No one is sure what happened specifically. It's said that after his screams stopped, everyone else started to scream."
“He’s unstoppable, unkillable. He’s like the juggernaut.”
“I worry about the day he really becomes unhinged.”
“He takes meds to control his temper and to take the edge off the world. “
“There was this huge fucking guy, and he jumps up and down on these two and crushes them...
...
So you're saying he's a huge fucking serial crusher? ”
"He's definately wrath personified at times, but I wonder he's got all those friends in the Autumn court, perhaps he's got one foot in the door there?"
"Yeah... I saw this fight he was in! Dude, he put his fist through a brick wall. It's too bad that Fairest's face was still in the way at the time..."
(Bah, they won’t say that to my face)
