Gerhard “Ironclad” is a hard-edged, 48-year-old Perocian sell-sword whose iron vow—never refuse a challenge—has carried him from ragged militia youth to feared battlefield veteran.

Lean, grey mane and mustache framing a stare that could nick plate, he wields his famed Stoneprotector longsword with ambidextrous precision and the reflexes of a born duelist.

Gruff honor guides him; a quick temper and proud streak remind allies to keep the ale flowing and the pay fair.

When steel rings, Gerhard meets it head-on—every time.
