Captain Matthias Corber
Until Kislev fell to the northlanders, Matthias Corber was little more than a brigand, working the Erengrad-Salkalten road. Desperate times make for strange bedfellows, however, and the war drove Corber into the ranks of Valmir von Rauken's outriders, and thence to Averheim, in the service of Karl Franz. Corber has never spoken of what changed his loyalties. However, the survivors of his robber band - all of whom ride to war alongside him - believe that the cataclysm has awoken a nobler side of their leader’s nature. Some amongst them respect this; most don’t care, so long as the coin and ale still flow.[1a]
