NPCs: Marshal of Colony and troops

[kadrik]

NPC: Edwin Van-Kluft
Career: Marshal of the Yetzinburg Colony
Age: 41
Description:
Edwin Van-Kluft is the marshal and protector of the colonial area of farms, ranches and plantations that suround the Quarry complex.
He was appointed personaly by Caldath as leader of the protectorate of these lands. Some have said that Edwin was not ready for such a task, and that he was unprepared for the sudden massive responsibilities placed upon him. However it seems that this critisism has made him all the more determined.
Edwin is now a stern, thoughtfull man, who reins with an iron fist. Every waking moment of his is spent attempting to use his limited resources well, and anyone found to be wasting resources (especially criminals) will find Edwin a firm beleiver in tough justice.
One thing worth noting is Edwin's firm beleif that gambling as an exess conected to the sinister powers of Slaanesh. Any form of wasting the resources that the colony works to gather is highly scrutinised and often punished.
