Cregud Walweyn

Cregud Walweyn was born to a middle class Alviran family, and grew up to earn a spot in the Alivran court, acting as a standard bearer and armour-bearer. During a minor attack on the palace, Cregud made his skills known by grabbing a construction hammer and smashing the heads of the invaders.
REAPER ERA LORE
Seeing his loyalty and skill, King Batwin enlisted him into the recently formed Magiguards, and was sent to be trained in the use of warhammers and sleep/stun magic. After his training, Cregud would become an extremely loyal guardsman, defending the palace and capital from evil-doers and other villainous beings. As the guard grew in size, a carde of skilled veterans were used to create the Old Guard sect of the Magiguards. Other men were used to create other groups within the Magiguards. The Old Guard was the most senior and decorated of men, and with Cregud at their head they would see many victories and honours.
Sadly, Cregud was not present when King Batwin was killed in the Karlian night attack, not there to help his ruler whom he had sworn loyalty to, having been preoccupied with was fending off the more savage, rabid inhabitants of the Desolated Lands. He would act as a commissar under Philip of Eos, organizing and making sure all was well in his part of the Alviran Loyalist forces. 
After Philip was slain by Karlia in a border skirmish, Cregud was elected by other officers to succeed Philip in his role of Alviran Coalition member. Cregud would do similar work, preparing defences and finding new allies to support the battered north.
Once the Karlain war ended, the Civil War for Alvira began, with Cregud resisting a local warlord from taking over Alvira. He would fight bravely, but would fall in battle, being the first casualty of the war. While the first battle of the war was a bit chaotic, his body and decapitated head would be recovered, and he would be given a proper burial. His rank would be passed to another of the Loyalist faction. 
NEW ERA LORE 
Despite his older age, he would enlist in the army, and serve along the then commander Batwin Ottiwell of House Ottiwell in the southern and eastern borders of Alvira, becoming a trusted sub-unit leader for his constant reliability. When Batwin was chosen by the Alviran higherups to be selected as king, Cregud would hype up the troops under him support this new choice. He would attend the coronation and be part of the procession. Afterwards, he would be chosen to lead the new guard unit known as the New Magiguards. The term Magiguard has been used to in past describe individual guardsmen and smaller temporary units in Alviran military history of this era.
