Ragnar Rödhake

Appearance
A taller than average man with an athletic build, Ragnar has long red hair kept in a single braid and a full beard. He's often seen smiling, though it almost never looks genuine as the smile doesn't seem to reach his grey, cold eyes. Usually wearing his chain mail, navy blue cloak and spangenhelm while carrying the greatsword of his father.

Background
Ragnar was born and raised to become a marauder in the Ralfir kingdom. His father Torvald was a famous corsair and consistently brought thralls to the small village of Syphe in which he and his son lived. Life is Syphe was great for Ragnar, he had plenty of good friends, was taught how to fight by the older warriors of the village and his relationship with his father great. When Ragnar turned 17 his father told him that he would bring him on his first mission; to raid a small town at the west coast of the Middlelands. For weeks Ragnar prepared for this by studying marauder tactics, learning how to fight properly in heavy armor and how tu use his axe to efficiently slay his foes.

The journey to their target went well, however during the raid the marauders realised that the town had more protection than they first thought. All of a sudden huge balls of fire and lightning crashed down the village from the hands of a powerful wizard. Most of the corsairs died during the first few seconds, Torvald being one of them. Ragnar managed, at the very last second, to flee the village after grabbing his father's greatsword.

After a few years of aimlessly wandering the Middlelands doing minor work where he could find it, the young marauder encountered a recruiter from the guild of Ravnor, a huge bald man with a bushy, black bear named Ivan Thawne. Ragnar's will to adventure was reignited when he heard the man's stories of gaining immense power, getting rich and brining honor and fame to his guild. Immediately enlisting to Ravnor, Ragnar decided to follow Ivan and learn the ways of the guild. After training for some time, he was sent to the town of Farund on the east coast of the Middlelands to start on his first guild mission.
