Cerdic
Cerdic is a bearded, ruthless, genocidal Saxon conqueror and sadistic leader. He is a fearsome commander, an unpleasant brute who slays his own lieutenants at the merest hint of insubordination. He is a man for whom the end always justifies the means, even if that could mean killing his own son. Cerdic is intelligent, but he is also very pragmatic and very evil.
"Arthur, wherever I go on this wrenched island, I hear your name. Always half whispered, as if you were a God. All I see is flesh, blood. No more God than the creature you're sitting on."
From beneath his rugged fur coat and peeking out from behind his long, knotted hair and abundant beard, his menace seethes; looking like a foul priest, he is cruel and sadistic, but with high intelligence and a zeal to conquer the Britons. He speaks, not in a booming war-cry, but in a matter-of-fact undertone with soft-spoken psychopathic fervor and boundless villainy… “Kill them all and burn the village… never leave behind a man, woman, or child who could carry a sword…”
He sits upon a throne on the northern shore of Caledonia, waiting for the day to move south and meet Arthur again on a field of battle. For now, he abides by the Treaty of Hadrian.
