**Legendary Navigator.** Hvitserk knows the coastal waterways around the North Kingdom like the back of his hand. When navigating, he has advantage on Wisdom (Survival) checks, and his ship gains 5 ft. of movement in bad weather. **Leadership.** As a bonus action, Hvitserk can utter a command or warning. Up to three allied creatures within 30 feet who can hear him gain advantage on their next attack roll or saving throw. **Battle-Forged.** Hvitserk has advantage on saving throws against effects that would knock him prone.

Actions

- Multiattack.** Hvitserk makes three attacks with his Greataxe, "Thunder's Roar."
**"Thunder's Roar" Greataxe (Magic).** Melee Weapon Attack: +9 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target. Hit: 13 (1d12 + 6) slashing damage plus 7 (2d6) thunder damage.

Reactions

- Parry.** Hvitserk adds 3 to his AC against one melee attack that would hit him. To do so, he must see the attacker and be wielding a melee weapon.

Roleplaying Notes

Hvitserk commands respect with every booming command. He speaks with a tone that suggests he has already won the argument. While cunning, he operates under a code of loyalty and professionalism expected of a respected captain.

Additional Info

Appearance Standing tall and broad-shouldered, Hvitserk's eyes, the color of a stormy sea, hold both cunning and a hint of wildness. A thick braid, interwoven with beads and feathers, frames his weathered face, which is etched with the lines of countless battles and harsh winters.
Voice/Mannerisms Booming and authoritative. He rarely shouts, as his normal speaking voice is loud enough.
Bond His crew, his ship, and his First Mate, Helga. His mighty axe, "Thunder's Roar," is as much a part of him as his own arm.
Ideal Honor and Loyalty. The chain of command must be respected, and one's word is one's life.
Flaw Pride in his own skill and experience often leads him to dismiss threats from inexperienced opponents.
Info The legendary captain of his ship, he is the trusted leader of the crew.
Equipment Scale Mail, "Thunder's Roar" Greataxe, a spyglass, and a sea chart of the North Kingdom.
