Ash-Bjorn's Story
Ash-bjorn pushed back hard at the door with one arm as he fumbled
out his
hand axe. He used the axe to cut off one of the hands trying to force the door
open and jeered, "My guess is that your hand is sorry I had my hand axe. If you want
I can pull out my leg and head axe so your that hand won't be so lonely here on the
floor." The sudden loss of one of the people trying to push the door open allowed
Ash-bjorn to finally push the door shut which he then barred. He picked the hand up and
looked at it. "Ah, Skeggi still haven't forgiven me for sleeping with your sister
have you?" "You can't blame a man for sheathing his weapon in a willing and
eager sheath can you?" Howls of anger from outside told Ash-bjorn that Skeggi and his
comrades felt differently. "No matter," muttered Ash-bjorn putting the hand into
his mouth (after he had pocketed a nice ring). Holding his hand axe in his left hand and
his battle axe in his right he kicked the bar up and then booted the door open. Leaping
out he spat the hand into the horrified face of Bjarn Yard simultaneously sinking
his hand axe up to the haft in Ox Fimbulson's face and chopping Amber-Ulf's shield in two.
He spun pulling Ox Fimbulson with him wrenching him off his axe and into the man trying to
tie up Skeggi's wound, kicked Nimble Helgasson in the groin and ran for the horses. The
few carls who were still standing looked on in shock as he reached the horses, untied one
and rode off laughing into the darkness. To the sound of a chorus of groans and moans,
Alder Ash asked, "Should we go after him?" Trini Ulfslandwichson replied,
"No, I most definitely do not think we should go after him. Let his reputation and
outlaw status go after him and see what he makes of himself, and good riddance."
Narrative
He is an Orlanthi Warrior with a dire reputation. A known
man-killer he is swift with an axe. He possesses a dry wit and is quite the lady
killer. Tall, strong and handsome he has the eyes of a killer and knows no fear.
He wears a long coat of mail known as Turnspear and prefers axes to all other
weapons. He loves fighting, women, drink, and food in that order and is very
self-confident but suprisingly enough he will listen to other's arguments and can be
persuaded to change his mind. He fancies himself as a good, if stern ruler.
