The fact that he wasn't actually nobly born. He wouldn't believe me that he was closer to a common thief than anything else.

A knight is not nobility.

He was one of the younger sons (if memory serves correctly), and actually turned to highway robbery at a fairly young age to support himself and his habits. When the kind of England decided that prima nochte was a good idea he saw an opportunity to get a band of brigands together and go looting under the guise of protest against the practice. The idea caught on and he ended up becoming the leader of a makeshift army that beat the hell out of the English for a while.

No, he was born in Ayrshire, though he had both Norman and Celtic blood.

Most nobility was a mixture of Norman and Celtic, if i remember right.
