Laughing Wulfric

WORK IN PROGRESS

Laughing Wulfric was one of the original members of Ardith's Resistance Band which later went on to form Sigehold Hall. He retained the command of his section of this band even after the formation of the Hall.

History
Wulfric was originally from Leoding Hall, and it was with his two brothers, Iron Osric and Fussy Jussi, and his wife-to-be, Elva, that he joined Ardith in her fight against the Thule. Later they would be joined by Relnor, also of Leoding Hall. He was known as Laughing Wulfric after his reaction within one of his first military encampments was to laugh until tears rolled down his face when one of his fellows asked about the origin of another's scop name.

Joining the Hall
He joined with Ardith in her resistance band against the Thule and then later, after Skarsind was taken back, he and his brother's helped her found Sigehold Hall on the mountain range between Pakaanen's Pass and the Glen of Shadows. As soon as the decision to found Sigehold was made he married Elva declaring his confidence in the new Hall. His cheerful presence and the jovial nature with which he greeted all aspects of life made him a favourite within the Hall even as it grew.

Though he was a man of little ambition, content to make merry in life, his attention was eventually drawn by the Hall of Worlds and particularly through Theo "Brassballs" Kelvinson's efforts he joined the Kesanling summer coven as a battlemage.

Time in Anvil
Wulfric was from the first a great proponent of Sigehold's presence in Anvil and he was known for his encouragement of the other's in his Hall, from Ardith's position as First Warden of the Mark to Liissa's decision to challenge Barien Wulfric was always there to drink to their efforts.

He was unhappy with the gifting of Skarsind and like many in the Hall there were arguments about this with his wife, Elva.

His military unit was joined by a member of the Grim Legion due to his taking part in a ritual with Kaela of the Saker though after his death the unit disbanded either to settle within Sigehold's new home of Hahnmark or to join up with his brother Osric's command.

Death
He fell, fighting bravely to the last, alongside Thane Ardith, his wife Elva, Theo "Brassballs", Thandral Proudhart, Roana and Ulwen, the Wolf of the Mark, at the Winter Solstice of 379.
