Rook Haldane
"The Northman", Axeman and berserker of the Marches
A huge axeman from the far north of the Marches, who fights with a rage that frightens his own side. Companies hire him for the worst fights.
Haldane is from a family of oath-folk on the far Marches who still keep the old ways. He left home after a quarrel and has been fighting for pay ever since.
He fights with a long axe and no armour, and he does not stop until it is over. He is gentle and quiet the rest of the time, and does not drink.
This year he is hired by Sir Lambert Dacre, who does not approve of him, to help hunt the thing on the road.
“I do not like fighting. I am only good at it.”
In person
37. Huge and powerful, with long red hair and beard braided, a broad scarred face and pale blue eyes. He wears a fur cloak over a leather jerkin, bare arms with old scars, and carries a long Dane axe.
