Yarik & Strakhtid Yarik is the half-orc captain who runs Bryaalstook with an iron hand. He demands discipline from his troops and punishes them severely if they fail him. However, he is also known for rewarding those who do their job well. Yarik is forty years old, with grayish skin, long straggly black hair and sunken eyes. The skin from his lip to his chin is split by a terrible scar, giving him a permanent scowl (surprisingly, Yarik has a fairly good sense of humor and appreciates subtlety). He is a massive half-orc and he wears a thick leather glove over his left hand (the palm of his hand is covered with shiny burn scars from when he grabbed a piece of cooling iron from the wrong end). Yarik's pride and joy is Strakhtid, a fiendish horse that he won from a traveller who came to the fort. Strakhtid is aggressive and hard to control, but allows Yarik to ride her. Strakhtid is powerfully-built, with massive legs, broad shoulders and a heavy coat of coal-black hair. Her eyes are dark red and they gleam wickedly in candlelight.
