    Name: Father Godfrey
    Age: 43
    Ethnicity: Poitevin
    Bio: Father Godfrey was one of the first pilgrims to get to Jerusalem after it had been liberated by Christians, and he had wept tears of joy as he entered the Holy City, and first gazed upon the holiest places in Christendom. As he was preparing to return home, he was approached by some of the new religious leaders of the kingdom of Jerusalem, and essentially offered a new life as a priest in a church south of Jerusalem. Now he accompanies the lord of those lands preaching support for the crusade.

    Name: Amhlaidh
    Age: 36
    Biography: Known as Olaf to the Norse, Amhlaidh to the Gaels, and possibly Olivier to ethnic Norman French speakers, Amhlaidh was born in Katanes (Caithness) to a Scottish noble's daughter who was raped in a Norse raid from Insi Orc (Orkney). Raised as a bastard, he became a skilled hunter.
    Like other displaced Hebridean Norse-Gaels, he joined the Norwegian King Magnus Barefoot's campaign to Mann, simply because nothing was left for him after Scottish Caithness was burned.
    He has made friends with the young Somhairle, who has befallen a similar fate as himself.

    Name: Gerner Fourneaux, known as Gerner Coeur de Loup (Wolfheart)
    Ethnicity: French / Norman
    Age: 30
    Bio: As a child, Gerner was always an odd boy. Always fighting his brothers and other townsfolk, he was from a young age known as a trouble maker and problem boy. While such features made him unfit for life as a farmer, his aggressive nature and little care for others suffering made him a prime asset for the coming First Crusade. It was in that conflict that he served under the armies Emicho of Flonheim, partaking as a leader in the massacres of Jews in Bohemia, spreading terror and death to the defenseless communities.

    After Emicho's army dissolved some years later, he joined the french armies into the Middle East, partaking in many battles, and earning the title Coeur de Loup, a mark of both his fierce combat skills as well as his brutal tactics and treatment of muslim prisoners. At the end of the crusade, he spent most of the small fortune he made in drinks, food and whores, suddenly finding himself bakrunk within a year of his return.

    Escaping money lenders, gambling debt and the presecution of some religious leaders for his crimes in Bohemia, Gerner arrived to England with nothing but a few coins in his pocket, a sword strapped on his belt, and the same will to rise from his station no matter the deeds it required.

    Age: 22

    Biography: Owain is the final result of a love affair between Sigward, a fierce and renowned geatish warrior from the north, and Arianwen, a fair welsh maiden of royal blood from Deheubarth. Sigward died a bloody death in battle when his son was naught but a small boy and Owain was thus raised by his mother and her family in Wales.

Owain's figure is admirably formed and proportioned, his countenance, with its piercing blue eyes and sharp nose, has a character of grace and dignity, but also respect and fierceness.

    Registration for Narf and Alexandrine.

    Name

    Atla and Svanhildr Angarsdóttir

    Age:

    Atla was born a single year before her sister Svanhildr, and 16 years before the turn of the century. Turning 16 the first of January. Svanhildr the first of May.


    Rank:
    Both Freedman(not that it means anything).


    Ethnicity:

    Norwey:
    The Faroe Islands.

    The Island of Koltur.


    Religion:
    Asatru.

    Physical appearance:
    Tall and slender, the Angarsdóttirs may appear like elegant ladies when they wish to. They have long pale blonde hair and fine features in their face.

    Biography:

    They hail from the Faroe Islands. Both born there in poverty and was brought to England by their ambitious father. They were raised alongside eachother to fend for themselves and not to rely on somebody else. And such the sisters was trained in the arts of fighting and archery.

    The two sisters' occupation can best be described as bandits. Svanhildr and Atla will do almost anything to earn some money, just as father have taught them. And everything is allowed to do, stealing or killing, it doesn't matter. They are also tricksters and masters in deceiving. At their fathers behest, they were educated in court etiquette and proper manners by their fathers English's paramour who once served a Norman lady.

    Personality:
    Atla is a tall girl with powerful presence and a personality to match. She can tone this up and down again as she pleases. Svanhildr is like the Summerwind with eyes that flash with an almost savage laughter. Atla is not as lighthearted. When she's not alone with her sister she is a totally different person. In such a case, her eyes turn dark. Eyes that glitter with a diamonds hardness and which if needed can be turned into a mystic alure. Her faces matches her harsh personality and can be considered very hard. It is a face to be dominated by, or fight, never one to patronize or pity. Svanhildr on the other side can seem to be everywhere at once with the hint of a smile matching her glittering eyes. With her savage laughter she is generally quickly well-liked. Both girls have spend most of their lives outside. Either in forests or running along the coastline and standing on mountaintops. They seem caged when simply inside a house or castle. A room never seem big enough to contain them. It's almost a sad sight, as if they should be with nature and freedom.

    Roland imprisoned in Rouen

    Name: Roland de Fécamp
    Age: 23
    Biography: Born of simple origins in Fécamp, where the Dukes of Normandy have historically made their residence, Roland's father paid for a monastic education at the Abbey of Fécamp, but Roland was thrown out when he deflowered a local village girl, and he ran away, taking many of the abbey's literature with him.

    He is now a bard, a herald, and an all-purpose scribe.

    He was once imprisoned in Rouen for 27 days for singing naughty songs about the Baron until he seduced a servant girl into helping him escape.

    He uses the alias Le Fur de Ficis when writing works.

    Name: Henry Shieldworth

    Age: 20

    Bio: A son of a blacksmith. His mother died at childbirth and with his father left to care for him (though he rarely did due to his drinking habits), Henry learned quickly to care for himself. He never really cared for his dad though he knew that should any harm come to him he would swear to kill the person who did it. His father used to be a well respected blacksmith and Henry also knew the ways. He forged his own sword at 15 and carried it with him ever since. One day he realized that his family was running short of money and soon learned that his father had also developed a gambling problem which he used to do down at local inns with the town's guards. Soon he couldn't afford to pay his debts and Henry found him murdered in his own home. Henry has never found who did it, though he secretly yearns to.

    Adrian Le Marchant
    Age: 32
    Ethnicity: Norman
    Rank: Freedman

    Serving most of his life as a tutor of war to wealthy merchants. He educated young men and in some occasion young women, the art of sword fighting and self defense, a comfortable life without much trouble and without much excitement either. He has been recently discharged from his service, after his young master departed for higher education. He now finds himself searching for employment, but tired of dealing with the same boring situation in equally boring households, he now searches for adventure in England.

    Random Fact: As an educated man, he dislikes the moniker of "mercenary" placed on him by most people; he sees himself as a teacher, not a sell sword. Sword fighting in his mind is an art, brute force alone does not guarantee victory.
