He was nine when Pepin III took the throne, and Charlemagne and his brother Carloman were raised together as joint successors of the Frankish kingdom. As a ruler in training, he did, however, learn to hunt and ride and fight in battle, all relevant attainments for a future Frankish king. Charlemagne was his son.Īs a boy, Charlemagne-who would become renowned for overseeing an intellectual enlightenment under his rule-was illiterate, and he may never have become completely literate, even as an adult. He gave Pepin the go-ahead, and Pepin III promptly took the throne and shifted the dynastic ruling house from the Merovingian line to the Carolingian line in 751. The pope was interested in the more material assistance Pepin could offer in the form of a defense of Italy against the Lombards. Martel’s son, Pepin III, obtained the pope’s blessing to remove a Merovingian king from power. The Merovingians had allowed dilution of their power, placing it in the hands of palace officials called majordomos, and Charlemagne’s grandfather, Charles Martel (known as “The Hammer”), was one of these “mayors of the palace.” (Franks were one of many tribes that invaded what were former Roman territories and eventually conquered what today lies roughly in the boundaries of France.) He was born in 742 under the rule of the Merovingians, a line established by Clovis three hundred years earlier. Background and Early LifeĬharlemagne was a scion of one of the leading families of a nation called the Franks. He also oversaw what became the Carolingian Renaissance, a flowering of literacy, art, and scholarship in the name of Christian education and the fostering of learning through his empire.
In addition to this expanded kingdom, he established a historic alliance between king and pope that became the pattern for European leadership for centuries to come.
However, the attention of the Mage Clans was focused on Isendra. Li-Ming refused to ignore the needs of people around Caldeum, and saved the city of Lut Bahadur from drought by bringing water back. Archmage Valthek decided to train her personally after he caught her studying forbidden spells. Li-Ming was born in Xiansai and brought to the Yshari Sanctum by the sorceress Isendra at the age of seven. Li-Ming is a burst damage Mage who can reset her Abilities upon getting a Takedown. Small minds may fear this kind of power, but Li-Ming wields the arcane forces of the universe with confidence and unmatched skill. She delights in unleashing devastating spells on her foes from afar, then teleporting away to frustrate her enemies’ attempts at striking back. Although she understands people’s concerns, Li-Ming is entirely unapologetic for the destruction in her wake. It’s a generally agreed upon fact of life among the denizens of Sanctuary that wizards and magical mayhem are never far apart. Li-Ming, the Rebellious Wizard, is a Ranged Assassin Hero from the Diablo franchise.
