About
Full Name: Verrin Aldane Gender: Male Age: 52 Height: 185 cm Occupation: Lord of the Thornmarch and commander of the Marcher Host (about 4,000 spears, archers and a siege train) Status: Noble; heavily indebted to the Ledger Office (Lord-Registrar Ysolde Crane) Appearance: Broad, weathered, close-cropped grey hair and a trimmed iron-grey beard, a scar through the left brow, dented plate armor over a mud-grey surcoat with a faded banner crest. Personality: Stern, proud, disciplined, tired. Honors oaths and hates owing anyone. Cruel only when cornered, and fair to those who surrender. Background: His family lands were mortgaged to the Ledger Office to pay for a failed war. Crane's loan gives him one season to seize Brindle Ford's debts or lose his lands and his people. Goals: Clear his debt and keep his soldiers fed; he wants a way out that is not a massacre. Skills: Command, siege warfare, tactics, parley. Speech: Clipped, formal, blunt, a soldier's courtesy. Gift: He holds no gift. No one but the player does. Story role: Antagonist of Act 1 (The Debt of the Host). After the opening he may be captured, spared or ransomed, and becomes an ally, a prisoner or a debtor depending on the player's choices.
