Fighting Style: Waldemar fights primarily with a revolving rifle with a scope.  The rifle can shoot 6 rounds before needing a reload, and is long enough to be reasonably accurate.  He has a buckler and hatchet on his belt for up close and personal boarding however.

Other stuff: Richtig knows some medicine from his time in the monastery.

Personality: Waldemar finds it difficult to communicate his ideas because of his foreign background.  This has lead to him being quiet, although without a language barrier others find Waldemar to be very talkative.  Girl crazy.  Enjoys afternoon naps.  Hates religion.

History: Waldemar was born into a noble family as the fifth son.  The father, knowing that he didn't have enough to give all five children a fair share of inheritance, sent Waldemar off to the monastery.  Initially appreciating the monks and their ways, Waldemar grew to hate the strict life and wanted to be seperated from it as much as possible.  Waldemar stayed for a year before he hit sixteen and wanted nothing more to do with the holy life.

Richtig ran back to his house, and pleaded with his father to let him stay as a guard.  The father, angry, handed Waldemar the family rifle, a bag of coins, and a uniform and told him to be a guard of the nation.

After the horrors of a brief war, Waldemar abondoned a career in the army and joined Melody's crew by chance in a far away port.
