Bloody Thiedbold

Bloody Thiedbold - also known as "The Blond Wolf of the Sea" or "The Dire Wolf of the Sea" - is an infamous Etrancoasti Pagan pirate, often considered the most dangerous of his kind. There is a very high bounty on his head, as he is hunted by both the earl and the Inquisition. While he is considered little better than scoundrel - strong and dangerous scoundrel, but still scoundrel - by his homeland's elite, a good deal of the peasantry is sympathetic to him and considers him their well-wisher.

Aside from his name, vague descriptions of his appearence, his reputation - positive and negative alike - little is known about the Dire Wolf of the Sea, everything being rumours and speculations. His family name is not known - we cannot be even sure if he has a family at all to begin with, given the possibility of him being a lowborn bastard without a last name -, his year of birth is not known either - although from his appearence, it is implied that he was born 30-40 years ago.

His hideout was never located, and it is entirely possible that he is a resident of Gabyr. Out of the few henchmen of his that got captured alive, none were able to give any useful information regarding Thiedbold's whereabouts. As he keeps causing more grief towards the Earldom of Etrancoast, the bounty on his head keeps growing. Thiedbold is not just openly pagan, but an outspoken "activist" for their independence and freedom to practice their faith - most of his crew are also Etrancoasti Pagans who escaped their country and joined him because of religious persecution. It is speculated that Thiedbold has four ships: three cogs and one brigantine, the latter which assumes the role of being Thiedbold's flagship - although, it was also said that relatively recently, Thiedbold has also acquired two junks, increasing the size of his fleet to six ships.
