The middle son of a minor noble family from Blutfurt in Ostermark, Ernst is a capable warrior who served faithfully in the bodyguard of his father for a number of years. The Adler family recently fell on hard times when their lands were attacked by a Waaagh! led by the Goblin Chief Mignob Zitnose. Waaagh! Zitnose was only repelled at great cost to the Adlers who were forced to hire a Mercenary army to assist with the defence of their lands. Ernst has become a sell-sword to help refill the family coffers, but he carries with him his hatred of the greenskins who devastated his home.
His full-plate armour, once resplendent and finely-kept, is tarnished, battered and scratched. His shield, once proudly marked with the Adler crest is gouged and scarred from countless desperate battles. Despite all this, Ernst carries himself with quiet nobility and a stoic determination.
Ernst is a Reiksguard miniature - I took a knife to his shield, visor, sword and armour to give it some battle-damage as I'd already decided on his backstory.
