Maekar, Captain of the Golden Company, is a brooding and dark youth. Though he has little in the way of renown, he is a terror on the battlefield. His demeanor grants him little love, but demands respect.

Character and Appearance

Maekar stands at an even six foot, with dark brown, wavy locks cascading to his shoulders. The young swordsman was once fairly handsome, though a long scar from his left eyebrow, trailing down the bridge of his nose and to his right cheek has marred the Knight's visage. His eyes are a piercing violet color, marking him a Westerosi Valyrian. An intense stare and brooding expression most oft grip his features. His build is thin and lithe, yet athletic and toned from long days training. When not in his plate-mail, he is often seen in all black, his leather gambeson sporting a small insignia of the Golden Company pinned to his left breast. He carries a bastard sword with him at all times. The grip is made of black leather, whilst each end of the guard and the pommel have a golden skull at the end. It is a finely made weapon, though clearly not Valyrian steel.

History

Not much, if anything, is known of Maekar's youth. His father was a Hedge Knight and his mother, the daughter of the Valyrian nobles on Dragonstone, whisked away by his charm and prowess.

His father raised him by the sword, a demanding man who forced him to practice day in and day out from the day he was seven. On his twelfth name day, he was officially made his father's squire, following him through battle after battle.

By the time he was seventeen, he was knighted on the battlefield, already a warrior of unique skill. He left his father's side, joining the Golden Company at once. He trained at Dragon's Rest, quickly distinguishing himself from the other warriors. Once his training was complete, he was sent to The Bastion, as he had proven his skill time and time again.

It only took a few short years for him to rise through the ranks, gaining the title of Captain and a command of his own men shortly after his twenty second name day.
