[edit] History
Born in 1190 in Sussex, England, as a latent Immortal, Hugh Fitzcairn's first death in 1224 summed up his habit of getting himself into sticky situations over women. He was skewered by a jealous husband. He was first taught in the ways of the Immortal by Henry Fitzmartin. Fitzmartin either shared Hugh's exuberant ladies' man nature or spent his time exasperated by the young man. Fitz was a carefree man, who believed nothing was worth more than love, even if that "love" only lasted until the next lighting of his pipe. Well loved by his friends, among them Duncan MacLeod, he was the life of every party and could charm any lady in the room.
Fitz was also a friend of Darius. He was with Duncan when they discovered Darius' body, after being killed by James Horton. He later helped Duncan pursue the killers at the risk of his own life. Fitz spoke fondly of "Brother Darius", and remarked to Duncan, that he had been one of the best Immortals.
He was killed in 1995 by Antonius Kalas, who was on personal vendetta against MacLeod, whose objectives were to kill MacLeod's friends and later MacLeod himself. "Fitz" would be avenged by MacLeod when he killed Kalas. He will always be remembered for his carefree, romantic style. Mostly Duncan, with whom he shared innumerous adventures, going from a golf bet with MacLeod where he was found to be cheating and profusely denied it, to the theft of the Stone of Scone, the stone on which Scottish monarchs were traditionally crowned.
