Appearance
Einar is a tall man with reddish brown hair and brown eyes. He is 20 years old when he is introduced in 1015. After many years of hard labor in the fields, Einar develops a muscular stature.

Personality
The events at Ketil's farm revealed Einar to be one of Thorfinn's more straightforward companions. He tends to react emotionally. Although outspoken, he demonstrates a great understanding of the people around him and especially of Thorfinn's struggles. Acknowledging his lack of combat prowess, Einar vows to help Thorfinn in his own way and is an ever welcoming companion. He's kinda fussy and tried to be friendly to Thorfinn. A softer side to Einar is evident as he can easily get embarrassed - noted by his reactions and blushing to whenever Arnheid compliments him.

Abilities
Einar has few abilities when it comes to combat, but he is quite large in stature and musculature. He also has experience farming and doing various other hands on tasks.

History
Einar is originally from Northern England. When Einar was a lad, his village was attacked by the King of England's troops, resulting in the death of his father. Years later, Einar's village was invaded by the Danish, resulting in the murder of the rest of his family and Einar ultimately being sold into slavery. After being transported and auctioned, he ended up on Ketil's farm. Shortly after arriving at Ketil's farm Einar met Thorfinn and they were tasked with clearing a forested area to make room for more fields which guaranteed their freedom from slavery. Einar did not become friends with Thorfinn immediately, but after a while of working together and understanding Thorfinn's past and his current mental state he began to embrace him as a friend and later his brother. They are brought together under a common goal of founding a country in Vinland, free of slavery and violence, after Arnheid's death.
