Fingal Din is the son of Argus & Sabetha Din. To the Scots, Fingal means "white stranger" although his friends refer to him as Crazy Fingal the Bard. Fingal is a skilled woodsman and fearless fighter like his father. But, as his father would say, he is "crazier than an owl turd, just like his mother."
Fingal has a fine barritone voice and is often enjoyed around the campfire for the fine way he tells his tales. Here is one of his favorites:
"Born in the days of glories now gone.
Men of honor, men of proud song.
A knight in armor with a fine gleaming sword.
Echos of the past, heard in a bard's chord.
Life was lived, for glory and pride.
Into songs and history, forever you'll ride."
By the way, Fingal has been known to search the woods tirelessly just before a battle. He belives it to be good luck to carry an owl turd in his pocket during battle.
