Biography
Connor MacLeod was a male human Immortal born in A.D. 1518 in Glenfinnan, Scotland, near the shores of Loch Shiel. He was raised by his father and his mother, Caiolin MacLeod. As a prominent member of the clan, he was quickly betrothed and married to a neighbouring clanswoman, Katherine. In 1536, Connor, Dougal and Angus went to the Frasier's to settle their differences with them. Later, while riding back home, the three were ambushed by five of Frasier's men but the MacLeods manage to kill some of them leaving a survivor to run away. Returning home, the MacLeod clan prepared for war with the Frasiers. When the Clan MacLeod went to war against the Fraser Clan he departed eagerly with Dougal, and rode at the side of Angus, the clan chieftain. As the battle began, Connor took the field readily, however he started to feel very strange like he was sensing something at the battle. It was there that he saw lightning in the sky and the Kurgan on top of a hill. Despite his demands, not one Fraser would face the young Highlander. Without warning, the Kurgan rode up directly to Connor, dismounted, and easily dealt a mortal wound to his stomach. As the Kurgan prepared to deliver a beheading stroke, Dougal and Angus rushed in, leaving the young Highlander to pass out on the battlefield. Connor was brought back to a deathbed by his kinsmen, where a weeping Kate watched over him. When Connor did not die, the townspeople believed his recovery was the work of witchcraft, and threatened to burn him at the stake. Dougal, especially adamant for Connor’s death, viciously beat his cousin with fists and rocks. Angus, however, mercifully decided that Connor should be banished, because he had fought alongside them. Swearing never to forget his chieftain, Connor staggered out of Glenfinnan, vowing never to return.
