Beneseck
Beneseck of Bath (died 870s), also known as The Bell, was a Anglo-Saxon member of the Wardens of Faith sect of the Order of the Ancients who operated in Lincolnscire in England during the 9th century. Holding the title of Palatinus, Havelok oversaw and was in charge of the graveyard at Brimclif Monastery.
Biography
In his youth, Beneseck was noticed and brought in as an apprentice by The Rake. His murderous tendencies were apparent, but to be part of the Order, Beneseck's will had to break. The Rake's tactic was to torment Beneseck, throughout every day, with the loud, mind-numbing sound of a bell. This treatment became a instigator to release Beneseck's primal killer instincts. Beneseck became skilled with aiding the Order's need for silver by befriending donors of his monastery and masquerading as a man of true charity. In reality, Beneseck tracked them, visited them, killed them, burglarized them, and then hid their corpses in the very graveyard he had.[1]
The Viking shieldmaiden Eivor Varinsdottir found a clue, which gave the title, The Bell, along her journey. The clue led Eivor to search the chain blockade along Ember River, in northeast Suthsexe. Breaking into a locked building along the blockade, Eivor found a note on top of a table. The note revealed the location and true identity of The Bell: Beneseck of Bath. His location was revealed to be the graveyard in Brimclif Monastery in southern Suthsexe. Coinciding with a raid, Eivor ran through the monastery and found Beneseck, unaware, tending to his graveyard. Eivor then assassinated the unholy Beneseck and ended his influence over Suthsexe.[1]
Trivia
- The first clue of this Order member can be found by either assassinating the The Billhook or killing the Zealot Bercthun.
