Hurrek 'Ironeater' Frind

"'Do'n hide y'er women, do'n hide y'er gold, nor y'er own 'ead. Hide y'er steel 'n iron, lest Frind find 'n dine.'""― Common Bretish Soldier saying, regarding Hurrek Frind, Bandit Lord of Lower Orbis"Hurrek Frind, known well by his nickname 'Ironeater' is a the Bandit Lord of the Fiends of Ferus, a large band of highwaymen and raiders hailing from Lower Orbis, particularly Menneia. Hurrek formed the Fiends of Ferus after the death of the Master Terciani Alpus Ossario of the Ironguard of Allus at the Battle of Mancusa, an event that saw the 10,000 strong mercenary company face an interregnum of leadership, before falling apart completely. Most of the remaining Ironguard, after facing their previous brothers-in-arms at the Second Battle of Mancusa and finding that the candidates of leadership had fallen, turned to banditry or became independent sellswords.

Hurrek was present at the Second Battle of Mancusa and finding much of his battle-brothers slain, offered them to his own company, unaware that Hurrek had planned to use their expertise for raiding, rather than search for sellsword contracts. Many of the remnants of the Ironguard of Allus are unaware that they are classified as bandits, as Hurrek writes contracts under fake and non-existent employers to earn validity from his own company. As such, the Ironguard, now 'Fiends of Ferus' answer only to Hurrek and his 'contracts', from slaying beasts to raiding villages.

The Fiends of Ferus, under Hurrek, maintain a number of approximately 600 men spread across Orbis. Many consist of lowly vagabonds with few remnants of the Ironguard remaining, should anyone fight an Ironguard, they shall find a worthy fight indeed.

Hurrek is a wanted criminal across all Nations of Orbis, there is a particular disdain of Hurrek from the Occupatory Bretish forces on Orbis. An old rivalry, decades old runs between Sir Richard Sask of Rothammer and Hurrek, and the Lord of Rothammer would pay a small fortune for the Bandit Lord's head.
