Banquo is the bastard-son of Gordon Baird, the last true-blooded Laird of the Baird clan. Gordon mysteriously disappeared a few years ago, after heading out alone. He was never found and the Clan was left leaderless with a succession crisis. The Baird clan was taken over by distant relatives, with Liddell Baird-MacGregors taking over leadership.
Banquo was looked after by his father until his death, but when Liddell took over, Banquo realised his life was at risk. Banquo decided to join the Guardians, a Knightly order who enforce the Mhor's Law in Mhoried. He also left his family home and went to live with his friend Sam of the Allardice clan.
The Clan Baird honour personal martial prowess and Banquo has taken this to heart, becoming a skilled warrior, but lacking many other skills. Banquo is brave and loyal, but not that intelligent.
