Askeladd

Askeladd is the cunning leader of a fierce little Viking crew, known for his sharp wit and clever tactics. A decade before the main events of the Vinland Saga, he took on an assassination job aimed at Thors, Thorfinn's dad. Throughout the chaotic Viking raids in England, he cleverly played into Thorfinn’s thirst for revenge, keeping the young warrior by his side. A top-notch fighter, Askeladd has an uncanny knack for reading his opponents in battle. With a background as the son of a Welsh princess and a Viking raider, he’s got a foot in two worlds and dreams of legends like Avalon, rallying behind Prince Canute for a brighter future.
