Sturm Brightblade is a fictional character from the ''Dragonlance'' series of role playing games and novels, based on the Advanced Dungeons & Dragons franchise. It was created by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman, and is published by Wizards of the Coast. The knight Sturm Brightblade is one of the six Heroes of the Lance. Sturm appeared in the first novel of the Chronicles Trilogy, ''Dragons of Autumn Twilight'' (1984). As with the other main characters of the trilogy, Sturm's proper creation was during a role-playing game session where Tracy Hickman, Laura Hickman, Margaret Weis, and Terry Phillips, between others, developed the guidelines and main story for the ''Dragonlance'' setting.〔 〕 ==Appearances== Although Sturm Brightblade is introduced by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman in ''Dragons of Autumn Twilight'' (1984), this and the other core Dragonlance novels do not cover his childhood. However, in 1987, the year of Love and War's first publication, Tonya R. Carter and Paul B. Thompson finally cover his childhood in a short story.〔 〕 We see Sturm again as an adult in ''Dragons of Autumn Twilight'' (1984) by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman as a typical paladin of the D&D type. Sturm soon meets Caramon Majere, Tanis Half-Elven and Raistlin Majere, revealing to them that his ancient suit of armor is all he has from his father, thus the greatest pride of his life. In the second novel of the ''Chronicles'' series, ''Dragons of Winter Night'' (1985), written by the same authors, Sturm Brightblade becomes a more active member of the Companions, as he helps recover a Dragon Orb, an ancient magical artifact able to control dragons. At the end of the novel he sacrifices himself to allow the defeat of the enemy army, ending his participation in the series. Paul B. Thompson and Tonya C. Cook's novel, ''Darkness and Light'' (1989) featured Sturm Brightblade and Kitiara uth Matar, working together to reach Solamnia, as Sturm sets off to find news of his father; the pair eventually admit their attraction for each other. This travel would be used as a background for Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman's short story "Kitiara's son", published in ''The Second Generation'' (1995), with an already dead Sturm, in which the authors reveal Kitiara and Sturm had had, unknown to him, a son named Steel Brightblade. Michael Williams's novel ''The Oath and the Measure'' (1992), fourth in The Meetings Sextet series, gives more information about Sturm's father during Sturm's quest to meet ''Lord Wilderness'', Lord Vertumnus, the only person who informs the true story about the Brightblade castle's fall and his father's death.〔 〕 At the end of the novel, Sturm is formally accepted as a Squire of the Knights of Solamnia. Several books mention Sturm's mother, Anna Brightblade. Margaret Weis in the novel ''The Soulforge'' (1998), reveals how she died when a plague struck Solace, while feeding the poor and tending the sick as written by the Oath and the Measure, the code of conduct every knight must fulfill.〔 〕 This marks a turning event in Sturm's life as, not bound by an earlier promise to protect his mother anymore, he decides to travel to Solamnia to learn more about his father's whereabouts. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sturm Brightblade」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
