Captain Henry Rodgers (a.k.a. The Gamekeeper)

The party first met Rodgers in the first session of the game, he acted as a hard support for Victor Kalton. And assisted in the recruitment of the airships crew as well as securing the funds to allow Victor to begin his journey. However once the party left, Rodgers begun a life of his own outside of the party. Rejoining the military he was involved in many major battles at the outbreak of the war, and when he met the party again he offered them his trademark shotgun before moving to protect the village from invaders.

Rodgers is relatively fit for a man his age, able to work just as long and hard as his men. His large body and broad shoulders help him stand out in a group, his booming voice only adding to this. With his thick mutton chops and graying hair, he looks every bit a senior officer.

Often wrapped up in the latest Teuton issue steam armor, Rodgers stands out as he often refuses to wear his issue helmet and bearskin into battle. Complaining that it limits his vision and senses.
