Medrōd

Biography
Born Guidgen ap Morgana, he was declared stillborn. But as he was presented to Gwyar, and the two of them left alone, he started crying. From then on she believed him to be the reincarnation of the God of War Guidgen, brought back to fight the Saxons. She glossed this with the 500 AD date for the second coming of the Messiah proposed by Hippolytus of Rome, Sextus Julius Africanus and Irenaeus. She had him raised as a warrior and a pagan.

Concealing his survival from Morgana, she raised him as a ward that was abandoned in Manau. Given the great number of other wards Lleu fostered, it was inconspicuous.

He formed a close bond with his fellow ward Thaney, a young girl.

He turned against his father after their defeat at the hands of Gwortepir. He stabbed him fatally through the liver/heart/guts with his dagger.

Personality
Medrod liked order and tradition. A stickler for the old ways and pining at so-called lost or atrophied values.

Appearance
He had a widow's peak, and usually kept his hair quite long, down to his neck.

After he was attacked by a lynx, he had deep scars on his arms, torso and two going across his left jaw and neck.
