Brynjar Rangvald

'Possibly the oldest man you'll ever meet..

At first this heavily built, fierce eyed and made-up warrior appears more than a little daunting. This foreign exterior hides the soul and skills of a compassionate poet however. A talented warrior and skaldic bard, Brynjar led a life of raiding and enjoyment before his tales and bravery caught the attention of a river nymph named Svana during a raid. He spent much time in her company, sharing stories and enjoying each others company before deciding it was time to return to his life. It did not take long for him to realise this was no longer possible as centuries had passed for the rest of the world. Worst, in her despair and frustration Svana had used her influence to ensure he could never to sail the seas again without misfortune.

In the years since he has had no choice but to accept his new life. At first his odd customs, habits and religion led to some trouble but over time he has come to be accepted - for the most part. He will never truly be a local but he has made a good number of friends. Strangers however still keep their distance, at least until he begins performing.

He first encountered  while s/he was visiting Nottingham purchasing some laboratory components. On getting him/her out of a tricky situation only to see him/her almost walk right into another Brynvald set himself the task of watching over the peculiar wo/man for the rest of his/her visit. From there a friendship of sorts developed.'
