'''Rachet d'Everard''' (also ''Radzig Eberhard'', 1433-1498) was a [[East Goths|Gothic]]-born [[Yonderre|Yonderian]] crusader, [[Knights of the Oblong Table|Knight of the Oblong Table]], [[Marshal of Yonderre|marshal]] and [[Nobility in Yonderre|nobleman]] who served the Crusader Count [[Joanus de Martigueux]] during and in the years after the [[Conquest of Joanusterra]].  
'''Rachet d'Everard''' (born ''Radzig Eberhard'', 1433 – February 22, 1498) was a [[East Goths|Gothic]]-born [[Yonderre|Yonderian]] crusader, [[Knights of the Oblong Table|Knight of the Oblong Table]], [[Marshal of Yonderre|marshal]] and [[Nobility in Yonderre|nobleman]] who served the Crusader Count [[Joanus de Martigueux]] during and in the years after the [[Conquest of Joanusterra]].  


Not much is known of d'Everard's early life. He was first mentioned in a writ from 1462 as a lieutenant of de Martigueux's crusader army. He took part in the [[Conquest of Joanusterra|crusader invasion of Gothica]] on the side of the crusaders and is noted in a manual from the late fifteenth century as a skilled commander and fighter in his own right. d'Everard was made a [[Knights of the Oblong Table|Knight of the Oblong Table]] in 1467 by [[Joanus de Martigueux]] in recognition of his service and a [[Barons of Yonderre|Baron]] in 1470, creating the [[House d'Everard]]. He is noted for his motto ''Du doch nicht!'', which translates from [[East Gothic language|Gothic]] as "Definitely not you!". The motto refers to an incident during the [[Conquest of Joanusterra]] wherein d'Everard at the head of a small force was offered to surrender to a numerically superior Gothic army. When asked how he thought he could possibly win the battle by a Gothic commander, d'Everard responded laconically with ''Du doch nicht!''.
