General Jurmund

General Jurmund is the commander of the Perigord army, only answering to Count Hawtrey. He is a large human male, almost brute-ish in appearance but has a certain shrew strike to his personality. While he moves in the Count's court and meets with nobles and dignitaries, the General is far from the political mastermind and a diplomat he should be.

To his men, he is the unquestionable leader, his example followed and his name revered as one of Perigord's greatest fighters and heroes. He has never married and has no reported children.

As a personality. Jurmund respects strength, honour and loyalty above everything and that is why he has picked his Captains the way they are. Both Aerild and Anton Ascon are hard-working soldiers loyal to the end and have been trained and tutored directly under Jurmund since the beginning of their ascendance into their ranks.

There was some controversy when the General chose Aerild the Fair to be the Captain of the Lyrivur Guard due to her being an elf and a relative outsider despite having lived in the city for more than a hundred years but he dismissed the concerns in his usual, brusque manner and insisted upon his choice. Count Hawtrey who trusts his general completely, had no qualms about agreeing with this and Aerild has since proven herself to be a capable and cunning military leader, not to mention a fearsome warrior.

At 92 CY of age, Jurmund continues to amaze his subjects and to protect the Count as well as the people of Perigord most tenaciously.
