Matheld is a Nord warrior and one of the companions in Warband. She is the most expensive hero, with a cost of 500 denars.



Biography[]

She is a Nord woman from the Northern lands (the Nord homeland). She is the daughter of a thane and was married to another thane, who allowed her to fight alongside him. Her husband died of plague and she inherited his lands as he declared in his will, but her brother-in-law claimed that a woman could not rule as a thane and bribed the servants to overthrow Matheld. She was forced to flee to Calradia, where she hoped to collect enough money to raise an army and reclaim her rightful inheritance.

Personality[]

Matheld is a courageous woman, who is knowledgeable in the history of her people, largely through Nordic sagas and tales told by the skalds. She is somewhat ignorant and quick to make assumptions, but also savvy enough to know when a story is a lie.

Relationships[]

  • Jeremus - Matheld dislikes Jeremus for insulting her ignorance after he overheard her speculating that some of the local peasants were descended from apes. Jeremus dislikes Matheld for being a fussy and difficult patient.
  • Nizar - Matheld likes Nizar for his talent in composing poetry, notably insulting one of his opponents in battle in the form of an Old Calradic Quatrain, as the Nords appreciate good poetic craftwork. Nizar likes Matheld for her singing in battle and he believes that she has hidden femininity that he can coax out.
  • Ymira - Matheld dislikes Ymira for spurning her offer to help find a match for the younger woman, unaware that she fled her home because of an arranged marriage, with one of her warriors once she retakes her lands. Ymira dislikes Matheld for striking an enemy's purse from her hands, saying that Matheld merely had to tell her that she laid claim to that piece of loot earlier.

Gameplay[]

As a party member, Matheld is a warrior first, with most of her skills invested in her personal combat ability. She is well suited to fighting as either infantry or cavalry, as well as contributing her own Tactics skill.

If elevated to lordship in Warband, Matheld will recruit Nords to fight under her and in her fiefs. She possesses an above average Leadership skill, making here suited to leading her own armies once she has been leveled up and geared sufficiently.
