He shows more bare skin & muscles than are necessary for warriors other than those portrayed in the art of Frank Frazetta & seems unaffected by cold (Ring of Warmth rather than fortitude).

His defining characteristic is hair, of which he has an abundance, which crawls around his head, growing as constantly as an usurer's interest.<br>He has recently acquired a new style for his "do": shaggy gray hair & thick shaggy gray sideburns - as well as a desire to howl at the moon & eat meat that is not cooked too much...

He is accompanied by a giant 4ft tall talking Raven called Haguldr the Black. Mungo has also learned to change into a raven.


He is of the "nobility" and born to lead being the youngest son of a very minor but very self important highland barbarian/bandit chieftan & his 2nd wife  - a well bred but adventurous gentle lady at first captured for ransom  & then seduced by large muscles, too much mead, a well cut fur loin cloth .....& too many bodice ripper tales of romance...
Odin is his god.

He has been taught to read, educated & given a good knowledge of the outside world by his ambitious mother keen to see him move up the family pecking order & improve the tribe’s (her) prospects .... so has gone off to seek plunder & treaure  but most importantly a fearsome reputation through the guild....(& to hire a skilled bard to be handsomely paid to recount his adventures - that is if any of the weasel libertines will actually complete a job rather than legging it with the deposit) & obtain a worthy “name” rather than just his birth order – i.e. “Dragon-Killer”, “Six-Slayer” etc which would be an accurate reflection of his perception of his character and status. As part of the package deal he also needs to acquire a weapon with an appropriately fearful name e.g 'Widow-maker" 'Peace-bringer" 'Blood-drinker" etc..
