Sir Aleksis is the main protagonist from Disciples: The Sacrred Lands, Witch Hunt scenario. He was a Pegasus knight of the Human Empire in the world of Nevendaar, the main responsible for a witch hunt and the destruction of several cities and the massacre of the population.
Biography[]
Sir Aleksis was a pegasus knight of the Human Empire who received orders from Queen Alba. In one area of the empire, near several cities, demonic presences and possessed people were seen, and the knight was ordered to destroy them. On the knight's side were several overly religious people, including Inquisitor Starken and a witch hunter, Klaus von Prodzik. Shortly after the forces of the Human Empire forces left Rhin Castle, they were immediately confronted by peasants, among whom were a mixture of the possessed and demonic cultists. Aleksis decided to make a simple decision that would have serious consequences for others and would carry out a total cleansing of the area, destroying not only the demonic presence but also everything else that got in his way. First, he attacked and captured the small town of Luneburg, where he killed the possessed and the cultists, but also the civilian population and burned the buildings. Starken was proud of him and told him that he had made the right decision and that the peasants he had killed were once good people, but they had made the wrong choice and become servants of demons and there was no turning back on this dark path.
After that came the next city, Bremerham, where the demonic presence was very strong, specifically among those who were attacked there were berserkers, and demons and devils also appeared. Alexis won, killed everyone, and burned down the buildings one by one, which Klaus von Prodzik had advised him to do. A clash then took place with the Mountain Clans, as they also saw good opportunities in conquering the area, but their leader, Rulir Thorsson was defeated, allowing Aleksis to continue his cleansing of the area after his victory. As he headed south, however, it became clear that demons had indeed infected the lands. He had to fight almost continuously with berzerkers, wizards, anti-paladins, and demonic creatures until he finally reached the city of Gottinhausen. They also found a witch in the city and a Moloch, a very powerful demonic monster, but in the end Aleksis was victorious here too, and Starken hoped that the purifying flame would reach their other enemies as well. They then moved west and attacked the city of Tubingen, whose defenders included a higher-ranking demon, Duke Arphossann, who was in turn protected by marble gargoyles and a succubus. Here the victory was achieved only after a difficult fight, but Aleksis killed the prince and everyone who was in his city. After that, there was only one city under the control of the demons, Alarinkoruz in the east, and the knights did not want another attack from the dwarves, so they went west by all means. There weren't many creatures outside the city limits, but Alexis wanted to be safe, he didn't want an attack from behind, so he wiped out everything around the city before launching the siege. Following this, the final battle began, in which the demons were led by a pandemodeus, and there was also a demon lord in the city, but in the end Alexis won his final victory, and after capturing and cleansing the last city, he fulfilled his mission.
Personality[]
Aleksis was quite different from most pegasus knights. He was a cold, ruthless person from the start, showing absolutely no mercy to his enemies and not caring about the fate of civilians. Although he and the others intended to serve a good cause, their means were too bloody, brutal, and merciless, and they themselves caused cruel destruction to the people living in the area.
