A tall, imposing man in his late forties with a strong, athletic build. His face is weathered from years of campaigning, with sharp, angular features and piercing blue eyes.

English Captain

Scottish Archer

A rugged man in his late twenties, with a wiry but strong build from years of drawing heavy bows.
