CONNOR MACLEOD, FROM THE SCOTTISH HIGHLANDERS

Connor MacLeod
Connor MacLeod was born in 1518 in Glenfinnan, in the Scottish Highlander near the shores of Loch Shiel, a few years after King Henry VII of England gave his daughter in marriage to James IV of Scotland, leading to the Union of the Crowns in 1503.

MacLeod faced an evil Immortal referred to as The Kurgan during a battle against the Clan Fraser and was dealt what should have been a fatal blow, but he didn’t die and the townspeople (including his family) believed his recovery was the work of devil, and threatened to burn him at the stake. He escaped and tried to begin a new life but he discovered, quickly, he wasn’t a normal man: he was Immortal.

In 1541, he met another Immortal named Juan Sánchez Villa-Lobos Ramírez, who became his mentor and taught him the ways of Immortals. Connor led many different lives: Adrian Montagu, Jacques Lefebert, Alfred Nicholson and Rupert Wallingford, and he, constantly, kept his immortality a secret. During his lifetime, he fought in many wars and encountered many Immortals.

In 1985, MacLeod was living in New York in the guise of Russell Nash, when he had to fight against his ancient enemy, The Kurgan. Finally, he won the battle and confirmed the legend: There can be only one.


Here we are, born to be kings
We're the princes of the universe
Here we belong, fighting to survive.
