Was hoping you'd say as such. Here he is. Let me know if you think anything needs a bit more fine tuning.

NAME: Heafoc

AGE/GENDER/RACE/WHERE FROM:

30 years; male; most likely Eorling, with possibly a Dunlander or so in the family mix; has a permanent living quarters in a large forested area just south of the Snowbourne and west of the Entwash – but is a nomadic hunter with out of the way places he camps in many of the forested areas.

APPEARANCE:

About 5 ft 8 inches; very stocky, muscular build; dark blondish, rather scraggly hair made even darker with oils and dirt due to his infrequent washings. Eye color is a nondescript brown. Lips are often set in a serious line – though he is fond of jokes and has a wide, infectious grin and laugh when something tickles his funny-bone. Skin is rough looking from his time living out in the elements. Clothes are non-descript earthy, dirty colors – thick-clothed breeches, homespun tunics. And in the colder times, he wears a multitude of layers to maintain some warmth, including a thick fur cape, gloves and thick leather mid-calf ankle-boots with fur wrappings as needed for the lower legs.

BITS OF CHARACTER/HISTORY YOU FEEL MIGHT BE HELPFUL:

A very straightforward fellow. Faithful to his promises and expects the same of others. Likes to be quiet and have a good look at people he’s never met before - before he’ll trust what comes out of their mouth. Nothing he likes more than getting to know somebody over a large mug of ale. He is an excellent huntsman and woodsman as that is what his father taught him, and to be truthful, he doesn’t see much to recommend the townish sort of life. Doesn’t do much growing of his own vegetables and grains – he trades for them in meats and what things others might need from the forest places that are his territory.

He fishes, traps, hunts with a goshawk named Anga for small animals; uses a bow, a club, an axe, a spear, a hunting knife as needed. Can use a sword, but thinks of it mostly as a weapon to use when facing a man.

He’s a widower – his wife died during the winter along with their new baby girl.
