[h2][b]Edric [i]Godsight[/i] Harlfsson[/b][/h2][/center]
[hr]
[h3]Personality[/h3]
Edric Godsight is a physically imposing man, possessing a strength that belies his advanced age. He is a grim man, stern and resolute. Edric prefers to err on the side of caution, entering into battle only when it suits his ends, and victory is a probable conclusion. 

[h3]Backstory[/h3]
Edric Godsight was once the jarl of Vestfold, ruling his realm from his hall on the shores of the Oslofjord. Edric rose to power through his piety to the Norse Gods, and bringing them glory through raids along the northern shores of Europe, and exposing the weakness of Christ's warriors where possible. 

Widely considered a holy man, Edric claimed to possess the ability to commune with the Gods and discern the future. His victories brought him renown and the following needed to claim the rule of Vestfold as his own. After twenty years of rule it would be his own son that would cast him from his hall.

Blinded by love of his child, and vexed by the poor company he kept, Edric ignored signs of his impending exile. Unwilling to raise a hand to his son, Edric was defeated and ousted from his hall, cast out to make way for his kin and a den of snakes. Now Edric sails to Saxon lands to return to what he knows best, subjugating Christians to the strength of the Vikings, in hopes he may earn his way into Valhalla in light of his defeat at Vesffold.

[h3]Equipment[/h3]
Edric Godsight's prized possession is his ship, Odin's Crow. It is a large ship with twenty oars, with charred and hardened wood crowning the bow, and a carving of a black crow. Edric's crew of some fifty men are proven warriors, some having followed Edric since before his time as Jarl. He also carries a sturdy one handed axe and a large round shield.

[h3]Skills[/h3]
Edric is well renown among vikings, having songs sung of his victories of decades past. He is known for his role in overseeing the prosperous kingdom of Vestfold, making it a force to be reckoned with among Christ's followers, and its sails feared upon the seas. His claim of visions sent by Odin and the Gods and ability to discern the future also contribute to his skill in inspiring loyalty among his followers. On the battlefield, Edric is cautious, relying heavily on a strong shield wall and slow advance against his enemy, contrasted with lightning fast raids against the weak and vulnerable. Edric still possesses the strength of his youth, perhaps even more so, as he made it a point to keep his battle skills honed during his reign.
