Nation: Lesser Armenia (Cilicia)
Hair Colour: Brown
Eye Colour: Brown
Job: Military--Heavy Horse Archer
Equipment: Composite Bow, Imported European Chain Mail, Arrows, Sword, Horse
Description: Will help Crusaders so that Cilicia's enemies will fall. More concerned with his nation's welfare than politness. Nationalist, emotional, a little Irrational, Brave (Gdrig is literally his first name!). Like every self respecting Armenian man at the time he has a family, despite his young age. He believes that family and devotion to God are the most important things in life. He is incredibly hot-headed and foul tempered. He is stubborn as a mule and despises the western culture and way of life, condemning it as barbaric. He does not understand why the Westerners crusade and fight amongst family members. Although a kind person, he has many flaws which often can make him enemies with the wrong people. His pride is one of his many downfalls. He respects strength and religious devotion, but little else.

Just for the heck of it, let's see how this goes...

Name- Harald Gunnarson

Nation- Norway

Hair Colour- Brown

Eye Colour- Brown

Job- Mercenary

Description- Became a mercenary after his wife died of water poisoning and he had lost the last of his wealth on games of chance. Seeing no other real alternative he took his bow and sought employment as a soldier to pay his debts and perhaps go back to living normally, though that seems unlikely as he has not the patience to do homegenous work. Has seen some moderate successes within his "job market" which for the moment has mostly involved guarding merchants together with others or being paid for being person's champions in the "Ting" (a sort of court) should the person they are accusing call for a fight to settle their differences. Being a champion there mostly involves cutting down untrained peasants, which is the job he prefers. In real battle, seeing as he really does not have much of a stomach for a fair fight, he wields a bow. Might look to take the Crusade, as he believes that maybe this way God will reward him with the will and faith to start a normal life again.

Equipment- Long bow made from yew (barlind in Norwegian), iron broadsword, a padded jacket, dagger, a horse for riding and a backpack filled with essentials.
