Outremer Warband: Brother Karl the Flaggelist

Warband Leader: Brother Karl the Flaggelist

Brother Karl the Flaggelist is the second son of a minor noble from Saxony, who left home at 15 to travel to the Holy Land. He joined the Templar Order soon after arriving having witnessed a raid on a pilgrim group being stopped by the Order. He has risen fast, driven by a doubtless zeal and faith, although more senior knights are concerned about his occasional violent outbursts. He will willingly admit that wrath is his greatest sin, but also claims he make it into a virtue by unleashing it on the infidels.
