History

Barnard Sawad icon 01.png
Barnard Sawad
A contract's a contract. And a Sawad never breaks his word, or may the sands swallow him. Integrity is my people's way.

The enclaves of the desert are famed for producing well-trained, disciplined mercenaries, and Barnard is the leader of one such warrior clan. Armed with a slender, crescent blade in his right hand and a dagger in his left, he commands a unique fighting style as graceful as any dance.

To Barnard, a contract is bond. He would sooner die than break faith with a client. His people and the shi'arc are sometimes rivals, sometimes allies, it all depends on who's paying.

Design

Junko Kawano's comment: "I got "fighting with a sword in each hand", so I had him mid-swing in an active pose in the first rough sketch. However, it seems it didn't quite match the Barnard Sawad image...

So, here's a silent man with a burning heart inside him. I hope you like it!"

B'baba's Divination

Unbreakable Contract
Back in his mercenary days, Sawad battled in a very harsh war. While other mercenaries fled, he and his men fought for the prince of their employer nation to the very end.

They lost, but the prince survived, and the tales of Sawad's group's loyalty spread.

History With Impershi'arc
Sawad's people have an on-and-off rivalry and alliance with Impershi'arc, with whom they share the desert.

Sawad has met Yuferius numerous times on the battlefield, as both ally and enemy, and respects him as a warrior.

Treasured Sword
Sawad carries a short sword which he treasures. He received it from his mercenary captain before his first battle, as a good luck charm to ensure survival.

He was separated from his captain during a tactical retreat, and holds hope that he can return the sword someday.
