Background

Little is known about the Sigurthr family and less so about its only known member Bailyhn. What conclusions that can be drawn are gathered from the various bits and pieces of information heard in discussion. The family's name "Sigurthr” is derived from old Norse word “sigurdr”, meaning “guardian of victory”. It is believed this name is an allusion to the long lineage of Norse warriors. It also alludes to where the family comes from, although the far white North is all that is known now. The family motto is

illa es telum vos donatus utor lemma facio nomo locus dignitas mortis pro

which translates from Latin as "these are the arms you are given, use them to make a name worth dying for.

The only family member worth mentioning is the Troop Leader Bailyhn on the South East Continent. From what he has said Bailyhn has come to the South-East Continent, to fight for Toren and earn a place at his ancestors table in Annwn. Based on recent events he shows remarkable skill at ordering his troops to march in circles, obviously part of a "master plan"

The other family member is his brother Attius, a rather dull, dim witted and not very exciting individual. He rejected the worthy career of war for the painsy pursuit of religion. Noble as his intentions may be, because of his foolish pursuit of some higher knowledge he won't be sitting at any table in Annwn worth mentioning. Thus little else will probably ever be said of him ... ever. Unless he does somthing foolish and dies a painful death, then it will be good riddence.
