BACKGROUND
Personality: When it comes to fighting he is extremely thingyy, he only sees the flaws of his enemies not his. Sagacious for Germanian standards. His personality constantly flips between slightly cruel or merciful. More civilized than other barbarians.
Detailed History: Eadfearth's father united all of the Germanic tribes. He was a very respected and loved man. As he aged, he had many wives and children. All of his children grew up together, and though Eadfearth was clearly the favorite they all got along. Eadfearth was as well the youngest and all at the age of 16(If you think that is to young, in ancient European times they were already considered men by the age of 15. That is when many men became generals and governors.) except him were given land to govern. As soon as Eadfearth's brothers were all given their share of land, Eadfearth's father Baeronus made the young man live in the current capital. There he hired the most renowned professionals in their trades to teach Eadfearth all he could know.
One of his teachers had the largest effect on his life. He was once a prisoner of war, let free who could never find it in himself to leave Germania. Instead he in rolled into Baeronus' court. This man was believed to be a Roman, and he taught Eadfearth all his knowledge. This is where Eadfearth had received his civility. This man was called Ocola by the Germanians. He as well taught, Eadfearth the 'civilized' war tactics of the Romans.
Baeronous seemed to age beyond his years, and to him it was time to pass the throne down to his heir. Eadfearth at the age of 18 was named rule of the Germanic tribes. This was equally as surprising as not surprising. It was tradition that the oldest son would be named ruler, but then it became clear why so much money was spent to train Eadfearth in many different ways.
About half a year has passed since Eadfearth was named king, slowly yet surely he gained the trust of his country people, through dealing with rebellions and out side forces. His brothers were not angry at the fact the youngest son was named king.
Fears: Being held prisoner.
Strengths: An uncanny ability with just about any weapon. His best weapon though is the bastard sword. Extremely quick.
Weaknesses: His barbaric and thingyy side.
Likes: Battle, to hunt alone.
Dislikes: Staying in one place without doing anything for to long.

Clothing:
Build: Sig.
Marks/Scars: Many battle scars all over his body.
