General Horus Spintail
This venerable ratfolk has clearly seen a lifetime of war, scars showing the skin through his fur all over his body. He has an eyepatch over one of his eyes, but even with only one visible eye, his militant stare can pierce the soul of any greenhorn for miles. He has the Black Kraken Arbiter's mark visible on the back of his left ear. He has a limp which causes him to use his sword as a crutch to hobble from place to place more efficiently.
Horus Spintail is the original founder of The Warriors Guild of Krakonia(WGK) as well as the military advisor for King Daerius Quintus of Krakonia . He has the respect of most of Krakonia, as he is considered to be a war hero due to his strength and courage as the Krakonian general during The Unification Wars . He has since mostly retired after founding the WGK, letting his two adopted daughters deal with most of the bureaucracy as he spends his twilight years reaping the result of his decades of hard work.
Horus Spintail was among the first individuals affected by the Dawn as a young ratfolk who could barely take care of himself. Fortunately for him, he was soon discovered by The Harbingers of the Rising Dawn , who effectively adopted him and raised him like one of their own. Inspired by the adventures the party brought him along, Spintail vowed to be useful to them in any way he could, learning to fight by watching others for years before stepping into the ring himself as a young man. Eventually his efforts paid off and he was able to stand with the rest of his party on equal footing right around the time Krakonia City was first founded.
Because of all his hard work and his close relationship with the leader of Krakonia, Horus Spintail became the general of the Krakonian Forces during the Unification Wars. During this time, he led assault after assault, bravely charging into battles where the odds seemed against him. He earned the respect of his fellow soldiers as a general unafraid to lead at the front lines, even after he lost an eye during a particularly grueling battle.
In the midst of all this conflict, Spintail led an assault against a group of bandits that had been causing trouble for some locals. it was an easy victory, anticipated from the beginning to be little more than training exercise for his troops. However, during the battle, Spintail discovered a couple of children that had been kidnapped by the bandits, allegedly about to be sold into slavery. After discovering they had nowhere to go after being liberated, Spintail decided to adopt them himself, giving them his surname. He knew he had little time to find love in the battlefield, so he skipped that step and moved right on ahead into fatherhood, raising Haley Spintail and Hanna Spintail as his own two daughters, passing on his military knowledge he had cultivated over the years by himself.
After the Unification Wars, Horus Spintail instantly retired from the military during the process of restructuring the entire government, passing on the honor of general to Robert Whitrock , the man who would become the founder of The Kingdom of Krakonia's official military, The Kraken's Reach . Not one to sit around while the rest of his companions stressed over their various new guild ideas, Spintail took on the duty of founding the WGK. He decided, however, that he had earned some respite as an old ratfolk with not much time left in life, so he pretty much immediately gave the title of leader of the WGK to his oldest daughter, Haley, so that his only remaining responsibility was to advise his king directly. He can now usually be found in Spintail Colosseum, the HQ for the WGK, where he watches sanctioned gladiator fights and teaches the next generation of warriors.
