Ivon Eisenhorn

Ivon Eisenhorn, also known as "the Bold," is a fierce warrior and a loyal vassal of the Baron of Redmond. As the lord of Bullholm, he is responsible for the defense of the town and the surrounding lands. Ivon is known for his unwavering courage and his unyielding dedication to his family and his liege lord. He is a formidable opponent on the battlefield, wielding a heavy shield and a vicious mace. He favors a defensive fighting style, using his shield to block incoming attacks and his mace to deliver crushing blows to his enemies. He rarely shows mercy in combat, believing that weakness is a fatal flaw in battle.

Despite his many virtues as a warrior, Ivon is not without his flaws. He is stubborn and prideful, often refusing to back down from a challenge even when it would be the wiser course of action. He has a tendency to hold grudges, and once he has decided that someone is his enemy, he will not rest until he has avenged any perceived wrongs. Despite his flaws, Ivon is deeply devoted to his family. He loves his wife and children fiercely, and would do anything to protect them from harm. He takes his responsibilities as lord of Bullholm seriously, and works tirelessly to ensure the safety and prosperity of his people. Though he can be a difficult man to deal with, those who earn his loyalty and respect will find him a steadfast ally and a fearsome warrior.

Ivon Eisenhorn's family is his greatest source of pride and joy. His wife Josselyn is a noble and dignified woman, always keeping the household running smoothly and efficiently. He admires her for her intelligence and strength, and is fiercely protective of her. Although he sometimes finds her opinions on politics and war a little too cautious for his taste, he respects her judgment and takes her advice seriously. Jacov, his eldest son, is his pride and joy. Ivon sees much of himself in his son and has trained him personally in the art of combat, instilling in him the values of honor, courage, and loyalty. Jacov is a skilled warrior and an excellent strategist, and Ivon has great hopes for his future as a leader. However, Ivon also worries that his son's rashness and impatience could lead him into trouble.

Didric, his younger son, is a quieter and more thoughtful boy. Although he does not have the same natural talent for combat as his brother, Ivon sees great potential in him as a diplomat or scholar. He encourages Didric to pursue his own interests and talents, but also tries to instill in him the same sense of duty and honor that he has tried to instill in Jacov.

Ivon Eisenhorn has a complicated relationship with the Dominion Church. On one hand, he respects their authority and the role they play in maintaining order in the realm. On the other hand, he has seen firsthand the corruption and hypocrisy that can exist within the Church, and he does not hesitate to speak out against it when he sees it. He believes that true faith should be about serving others and doing what is right, rather than using religion as a tool to gain power or wealth.

As for his Baron, Oliver Rocks, Ivon is fiercely loyal to him. He believes that Oliver is a fair and just ruler who genuinely cares about the people of Rivermond. Ivon has fought by Oliver's side in numerous battles and trusts his judgment completely. However, Ivon can also be stubborn and headstrong, and he has clashed with Oliver on occasion when he felt that the Baron was making a decision that would put their people in danger. When it comes to Rivermond as a whole, Ivon has a strong sense of duty and honor to protect his land and his people. He takes great pride in the town of Bullholm and works tirelessly to ensure its prosperity and safety. However, he is also aware of the political machinations and power struggles that exist within Rivermond, and he is not afraid to take action to protect his town and his family when necessary.

Ivon Eisenhorn is a man of conviction, and his beliefs in the righteousness of his cause had never been more steadfast than when he was defeated by the heroes now known as the Travellers. He had been ordered to stand behind and keep whatever threat came through the door to help his Baron Oliver Rocks and William Vicarin escape to safety. He was willing to do whatever it took to accomplish this, even if it meant fighting to his death.

But when the heroes defeated him, Ivon found himself in a new situation. He was no longer in control, and he was faced with the realization that his opponents were not the enemy. They had spared his life, and he was left to wonder why. Was it because they recognized him for who he was, one who had been doing his duty as he saw fit? Or was it because they saw the potential for him to change, to see the truth about the situation and to join their cause? Ivon struggled with these questions, his mind churning with doubts and uncertainty. He saw that the heroes were not the mindless savages or of the Church which he presumed.
