Tropes

Low-born, in Heroham (in Landbury), in 943
Worked his way up through the ranks of the Heroes' Guild over decades, eventually named Steward, then chosen as Grand Master of the Guild around ten years ago
Recognized by the King of Generica and other top nobles of the Realm for his bravery, cunning, and timely interventions; has been offered knighthood several times but always refused
Has seen a little too much of the shenaniganry perpetrated by the noble houses, and wants no part of any of it (hence the refusal of knighthood)
- Has a special, dark place in his heart for the house of Lionheart
- Powers-that-be are secretly bothered by their inability to gain a hook into him
Has mostly retired from "active duty" but will still occasionally put a boot up someone's ass at his age, if needed

Primary: Always trying to advance the honor and reputation of the Guild while keeping the Guild-family from flying apart, but things are always throwing the two out of balance
Secondary: Married (a gentleman's daughter, a "prize" for a job long ago); wife is always fussing over his health, and he's finally starting to listen to her and capitulate, taking more breaks and reducing stress
