Especially for his opponents, Hrothgar striked fear into anyone's hearts, especially his passion for crushing skulls, literally.

Within the Order, Hrothgar's work spoke so well that he was often employed by The Oil on the accounts of his brutality.[1]

It was during one such patrol that Hrothgar was marked and then fatally defeated by the Viking Eivor Varinsdottir, an ally to the Hidden Ones.

Hrothgar's clue retained information about a festival near Henge Farm, south of Stonehenge in Hamtunscire.[1]
