Daegmund

A long serving warrior of Wintermark, joined with the band who would form Sigehold in the early days.

History

Born to one of the northern holds within Skarsind his family were sworn to the banner of those who defended Crow Ridge form the barbarian invasions.

A Steinr from birth he trained in the gruelling art close quarter melee. A sword and shield were ever his favoured tools of war as he put them to use in the defence of his people and their land.

When Skarsind was sacked by invading Orcs his hold was destroyed, meeting with other survivors and eventually those who would form Sigehold he fought on in defence of the Mark.

Time with Sigehold and the journey to Anvil

For a time Daegmund with put off travelling with the members of Sigehold to Anvil, his place was to defend the Hall, so that they might always have a pace to return to.

In the Autumn Equinox of 378 he was finally convinced to take the journey to Anvil, they fighting alongside his hold at the fated battle of Ikka's Tears. The loss of so many friends while he was divided from them upon the field scared him deeper than any Orc blade but for the good of the Hall he fought on beside his fellows.

Winter of 379

Unable to travel to Anvil that season Daegmund remained within the Hall, assisting with the preparations for relocation. When the members of the Hall returned from Anvil he learnt of those who fell in battle.

Darkness clouded his mind at the loss of so many, unable to console himself he sought ways to easy the weight of loss and guilt he felt upon his Skein until, in the depths of winter he reached a final decision.

Death

In the late hours of a cold winters evening Daegmund left the Hall, little warning was given and he sought no company that night. Taking with him his scared armour, a sword that felt heavy in his hand and a shield torn from too many battles he walked north.

There, in the ice fields of Sermersuaq Sydanjaa awaited. Broken of mind but still strong of body Daegmund allowed the storm to claim him.
