Hakk Thorwald
Jarl Hakk Harold Thorwald (a.k.a. Stormrriddari)
Famed for his many feats in battle few men dare to oppose him and many strive to join him. He earned his name Hakk when he was a young 15 year old boy. Until that point he had been raised as a slave in one of his father's enemies villages. He wasn't any ordinary house slave but he was often reminded of the fact that his 'worthless father' had forsaken him (as the enemy Jarl Frante put it). On Jarl Frante's 38th birthday Hakk (then named Tom) drugged the entire royal family with a potent herb that paralyzed them for hours. Meanwhile, Tom took up a small hatchet and started to butcher them one by one, slowly chopping (hakkade) them to death piece by piece.
The rumors of Hakk's ruthless and fearless actions quickly spread and he shortly after sailed home and challanged his father to a duel. His father accepted the duel (as is tradition) and when the duel started no one believed the small boy would stand a chance against the renowned (although fat) Jarl Thorsten (his father).
When the duel started Hakk threw a small hatchet towards his father - the very same he had used to sever the entire Frante Jarldom. Legends say that a bolt of lightning shot out of the sky and hit his hatched, causing it to fly into his father's skull with the speed of thunder. He then calmly walked up to his father's corpse and withdrew the hatchet from his father's skull. He cut his right eye out with it and said that his father had forgotten where they came. He then cut out his father's right eye and put it into his own empty eye socket and cried out his famous words -
By Thor's strength I will show you father, I sentence you to watch my life - which is a tribute to the Aesir that you have forgotten. In the meantime you will not be allowed to proceed to the afterlife, you will learn to long for it as you watch me until the end of my days in Midgard.
