Bjorn

Bjorn (ビョルン Byorun) was Askeladd's second in command and his longest serving and most loyal follower.

Appearance
Björn was a a stocky man with dark, scruffy, black hair reaching down his neck. His beard was originally more grown out before being tied tied by string to resemble a goatee. He wore a padded coat with buckles across the chest and a nasal helmet.

Personality
Björn is extremely devoted to Askeladd and is considered Askeladd's only real friend. His role as the right hand man did not waver when the rest of Askeladd's band turned against him.

Abilities
Bjorn was a skilled warrior but his full power was displayed when he used certain mushrooms to get into a berserker state. When in a state of berserkergang, he displayed tremendous ferocity, strength, and resistance to pain, becoming a highly dangerous opponent capable of continuing to battle even despite multiple injuries. The downside was that Bjorn could not distinguish between friend and foe unless snapped out of berserkergang, making him potentially lethal to his allies.

History
Out of the members of Askeladd's band, Bjorn was with him the longest. Despite this, he actually did not learn much about his leader save for the fact that he was Danish. He rose to become Askeladd's right hand man and was respected by his companions.
