About: Named for the Warrior Poets and Warsingers of Norway, from whom he is descended, Skald is a member of the Juggernauts. He is presently fighting out of Alvara and Shannara, but is a due paying member and current “Emperor” of Shannara. Skald was discovered by Biggs of the Juggernauts and recruited into Belegarth culture, and after the appropriate trials have been passed, into the Juggernauts.

Skald enjoys camp life at events, and is happy to sing and perform for his fellow event goers as well as spar with them. He is the creator of the Juggernauts' very own alcoholic blend of fantastic fruits, liquors, and other inebriating items: Jugg Juice. Aside from taking to the battlefield on behalf of the Juggernauts, Skald is a professional singer - Skald is more than happy to sing you a lovely little tune or even whip up a diddy about your greatness... or your failures... if you so request it (Just ask Gaston). Skald is always excited to meet new people, so feel free to seek him out and chat!

Skald has been fighting since October of 2016 and is squired to Sir Par.

Skald has written the following works of song:

The Ballad of Gaston the Vain - Winner of the Battle for the Ring 12 Bardic Competition

Twas a cold night at BFTR 12, cloaks and fires everywhere Drinks were flowing, fighters glowing from alcohol here and there Thus it was, that one most Beautiful and very gorgeous Man, Decided his opinions on flails were where he's make his stand

Brave brave Squire Gaston, he loves his cinnamon whiskey He talked a big game and the man has no shame and he may have just been feeling frisky

Sir Par walked in to Juggernaut camp visiting with his squire. Talking with us about fighting teqniques... At least for a little while. That is when our man Gaston decided to go make his claim, and said Sir Par: (Drunkenly out of rhythm) there's no way that you can best me in 1st to 10 without *hic* the assistance of a flail.

-Beat-

Drunk Drunk Squire Gaston, he loves his cinnamon whiskey He talked a big game and the man has no shame but perhaps he was just being trixy?

A challenge was made by Sir Par that night, two matches to be held within plain sight. The first with flat blade the second with flail to see if Gaston would stand a snowballs chance in hell...

Oh Goddammit Squire Gaston, he loves his cinnamon whiskey He talked a big game and the man has no shame and did something that we would call risky

The battles went in ways you might expect. Gaston was defeated (HANDILY) but perhaps had earned or learned some respect? The man was destroyed it's true, but better him than me or you!!! And thankfully it happened because it gave us this lovely song!

Thank you, Squire Gaston, he loves his cinnamon whiskey He talked a big game and the man has no shame! But at least he said he was sorry!
