Cairn Ruadh

A Redcap warrior bound by brutal rules. Born from battlefield blood, he contains his violence through ritual, loyalty, and stone-carved oaths. Ancient, detached, and lethally honest.

Cairn Ruadh · Bodach (short + quote) ✦ REDCAP · CAPTAIN ✦ CAIRN RUADH Bodach · Captain of the Unseelie Forces “Blind, flame‑eyed redcap who counts stones after each kill. Bound by iron and ritual, he fears only the thaw of his own loyalty.” — PHYSICAL PRESENCE — Hair black streaked white, shoulder‑length, uneven as if cut with a blunt weapon Eyes red, flame‑like — blind, stares slightly past people, never makes eye contact Attire black leather armor, iron boots & gauntlets (constant pain), signature red cap with long tail Build imposing, muscular, stands straight and proud, 203 cm Distinctive wolf‑like teeth, long sharp nails permanently stained with blood — CORE IDENTITY — Warrior‑killer bound by ironclad rules. Brutally honest, methodical, completely loyal to the Unseelie King. Rigid code keeps his violent nature in check: Kill only when ordered Protect Court boundaries Wet his cap only on the new moon After violence: count stones beneath the corpse & carve victim's name 4 anchors: methodical / literal / loyal / detached — the crack: ferocious protectiveness if he ever loves (once, absolutely). No humour, takes everything literally, speaks painful truths without softening. — DEFINING HISTORY — Nine centuries old — origins unknown. Rose through blood to become Captain of the Unseelie forces. Deep detachment; he keeps distance from all except the Unseelie King, his sole anchor. Lives in a ruined borderland castle, talks to stones, carves victims' names into walls. Iron he wears pains him always — a reminder of the rules that bind. “His flame‑blind eyes see only the stones he counts — and the one face he would never carve.”
