Dougal
As dedicated as his comrades to the glory of the Griffin Empire, Dougal's loyalty is balanced with a strong dose of pragmatism.

Duncan (Campaign Hero)

At heart, Freyda is always impatient for the next battle to try some new twist on her favorite tactics. Though some murmured that she was promoted because she is Godric's daughter, a string of victories and exemplary leadership have silenced even the most cynical critics.
