Harmen

Harmen Steel is a low-born knight currently serving House Redhawk. He fought as a squire in Robert's Rebellion and as a hedge knight in various other conflicts over the last thirty years, including the Shattering and Quentyn's War. Harmen takes his name from the street he was born on, the Street of Steel.

Appearance and Character
Harmen is a well built man in his fifties. His face is heavily weathered and wrinkled due to countless days and nights outside. His jet black hair is just now thinning, but not turning grey in the least. Harmen does not keep good care of his beard, which grows for a couple weeks before he shaves it haphazardly, only to repeat the cycle. He wears heavy plate gifted to him by the Redhawks who are the first house to take him into their service as a household knight instead of a simple hired sword.

History
Harmen fought alongside Robert at the beginning of his rebellion up until his death. During these times of constant war, he developed quite the drinking habit. After Roberts death, Harmen became a wanderer, only really caring how to be paid in order to get his next drink. He eventually made his way south, to Dorne. During his time here he had a child with a woman who died giving birth. Harmen now has a very young child and feels he will not be around to teach him how to be a man. Harmen continues to drink to this day, always carrying a flask with him wherever he goes. His daughter, Krista, his duty, and his drink are all that matter to him now.
