Wielder of Remorse
The Vilderavn who has been terrorizing Operation Overture and disguised as a soldier among their ranks, Hisaki Arashi, using a uniform he took from the Platoon 13 massacre scene after Platoon 9 left but before the others from the expedition showed up to recover them, is called Wielder of Remorse. (This was one of four who fought the Fellowship of the Bear when they first came to Yutakaya.) He was trying to find out how they are generating the ward which blocked passage into and out of the camp. Through observing people entering and leaving he has worked out pretty much exactly how it worked and that it would require either a very strong magical item or a powerful caster or group of less powerful casters working day and night to maintain it. Now he needs to learn how to disable/steal/destroy it and will try to learn whatever else he can about these invaders in the meantime. Possibly has to wait to disable it after finding out how because they would know almost immediately and might be able to get it back up before enough damage has been done if he destroys it now. So he will wait, gauging the power of his enemy, and contact his brethren outside the camp through Speak in Dreams to rally the forces of nature to be ready to attack as soon as he lowers the barrier.
He also orchestrated the goblinoids showing up after he massacred Platoon 13, promising their leader all the loot they could want. Or he could have posed as an Elder Worg in his Dire Wolf form and been their leader and ordered them to do this or came in, killed their leader making him the new leader, and then ordered them to do it. They were waiting nearby and got away with most of the loot before Platoon 9 arrived and, drunk on “their” recent good fortune, they saw an opportunity for another great victory. Less then half escaped with the loot and the rest died, aside from the single captured Bugbear.
Have a scene like where Loki shapeshifts into Captain America and comments on how he can feel the courage and righteousness surging.
