Watch Master Hoelgar Amutsson

From Mistipedia
Jump to navigationJump to search

Hoelgar Amutsson is an aged, bitter outlander who after twenty years of seeking a way home wandered into Darkon and lost his memory of his former life. He is not a particulary effective master of the Harbor Watch, and both the City Constabulary and the Kargat want him replaced. Still, the crime rate has fallen, and he enjoys the support of the Mayor of Martira Bay. He will kill (or see hanged) anyone who slights his honour by attempting to bribe him, but he doesn't care if his men accept bribes. Hoelgar owns a large weapon collection and talks of little else than weapons and their care.[1][2]

Before entering Ravenloft Hoelgar was a berserker warrior carrying a mighty dragon slayer greatsword. Together with his men, he slew an entire brood of gold dragons, save one fugitive. Its mother, as she died, cursed Hoelgar to utter destruction when "the golden eyed youth wields the silver blade". Hoelgar followed the youth, intending to slay it before the curse could be fulfilled and became trapped in Ravenloft.[3]
