Line 4: Line 4:
 Born in the Year of Our Lord 1223, Meister Dietrich von Sachsen (he/him) is the third son of a minor nobleman from Laußig, north-east of Leipzig. Realizing that the odds of inheriting enough of his father’s estate to support himself were slim at best, in 1241 Dietrich set north to Prussia to serve as a “guest crusader” with the Teutonic Order in Prussia with little more than a horse, his armour and a stout blade. The Teutonic Order had established a series of castles in the recently conquered territory of the pagan Prussians and Lithuanians, and Dietrich saw the ongoing Prussian Crusade as a means to gain land and income. Born in the Year of Our Lord 1223, Meister Dietrich von Sachsen (he/him) is the third son of a minor nobleman from Laußig, north-east of Leipzig.

-Dietrich’s arrival was perhaps ill-timed, for in the following yearthe First Prussian Uprising took place, pitting the badly outnumbered Teutonic Knights against the local tribes. Dietrich fought in a few skirmishes against the Prussians and Pomeranians, before he and the order were defeated along the banks of the Osa River. 400 Teutonic Knights, including their Marshall, perished. Dietrich was wounded and left for dead, but he miraculously survived, floating downstream until he reached the sea. Dazed and wounded, he was picked up by fishermen.+Dietrich’s arrival was ill-timed, for in the following year the First Prussian Uprising took place, pitting the badly outnumbered Teutonic Knights against the local tribes.
