Chaotic, Man, Warrior-8, Baron of Braxx

Evil Jack as a Man who hacked his way to a captaincy in the army of Hurgmoth the Lord of the World. On one fine morning he cut off the head of a Dwarf ambassador in the Imperial Court, because he thought he smelled a little off. When the head rolled into a drain hole, Jack laughed maniacally in front of the whole court. This so impressed the emperor that he immediately dispatched him to Braxx to depose the baron there, a Hoborg assassin who was caught plotting against the throne (being caught was the unforgiveable crime). Jack took his company and quickly slew the baron and took his place, ruling over the Goblin barony.

When the One-Year War broke out, however, Evil Jack spent the vast amount of his time in a drunken stupor, not issuing orders and committing acts of outrageous neglect. He allowed one of his fortified towers Biter to lay without a garrison and to be taken and held by Sinxth without a fight. He was defeated by a joint Sinxth-Dorgstyn armed pilgrimage to the Holy Tomb which lay in his land. Some of his lands were also raided without reprisal by Ingvar of Barl.

One might have expected the emperor to punish such neglect and failure quite severly. However, in one throw of the dice, near the end of the war, Evil Jack mustered his entire army and made a mad thrust against the headquarters of the Holy Brotherhood of the Lord Protector. In a great battle, which was fought to a standstill, Evil Jack managed to slay Grand Master Theodoric in personal combat, before swooning from his own wounds. His army retreated, but Evil Jack's reputation was saved.
