Sinfiot the Seeker

Said to be the best tundra guide in Thrull, the ranger Sinfiot is the north’s most legendary tracker and hunter—of escaped thralls. A lanky warrior born to Clan Völgr, he is easily recognized by his tangle-locked blonde hair, threaded with salt-dried fingers claimed as trophies from his most recent catches.

A Murderous Legacy.

Sinfiot was a well-known raider in his youth, with a reputation for leaving no foe standing. More than once, his hunger for death brought him into conflict with his reaver captains, with Sinfiot continuing to fight alone after surrender had been offered and a cessation of hostilities called.
Sinfiot’s career as a raider ended during a series of successful assaults against villages on the river south of Altenheim in The Bürach Empire, led by Völgr clan chief Nolgr Magnusson. With the longboats filled to overflowing with food, loot, and thralls, Nolgr ordered the fleet back to the sea even as imperial forces advanced from their capital city. But Sinfiot defied those orders, convincing three companies of warriors to join him in a foolhardy assault against the Bürach line. Only Sinfiot was said to have survived, escaping capture to make his way back north on foot.

Exile and Extermination.

Returning to Tyburn to what he thought would be a hero’s welcome, Sinfiot found himself arrested and set for execution on Nolgr Magnusson’s orders. But with a combination of charisma and murderous fury, Sinfiot escaped to the mainland, where he took up his new life.
Though thought of as a hero among many of the Völgr, Sinfiot has so far shown no interest in establishing himself as the leader of an independent clan. A lone wanderer, he steals what he needs and attacks anyone who crosses him, wandering Thrull, Grarjord, and Kandar through most seasons. He follows signs and rumors of thralls either fled from servitude, or freed and making their way south to their homelands, ready to exact murderous vengeance for what he perceives as a betrayal of the Valikan way. But he watches also for Clan Völgr hunting parties, who have standing orders to slay the Seeker on sight.
