About Alex Gray Wolf
As a child before coming to employ for the pope and to form the mercenary Company Wolf's Blood, he was raised by scholarly monks. There he studied forms of armed and unarmed combat through out history to as far back as the Spartans. For his first job he was hired as a commander of a mercenary unit in the German Military. During a skirmish with the barbarians from the north, he was wounded by getting stabbed in the knee. His unit thought him dead and he was left to the cold winter in the northern highlands. During this time it is said that he would have frozen to death if not for the gray colored wolf who came looking for an easy meal. He let the wolf come near and as it struck he slit it's throat. With the little meat and the fur from the beast he had a meal and some warmth. The day after he killed the wolf, he followed the tracks to its den in a spring cave. He found the cave before the freeze and was able to stay warm while healing until the thaw. He survived by feeding off fresh water fish from the spring. At the thaw, he returned to his employer to find the war was over and in turn lost his job. For a while he wandered looking for money as a bodyguard or sword for hire here and there. After a time he found himself in Ireland where he met Godric who, having lost his family and town in a raid, chose to make his way as a mercenary with Alex. After leaving Ireland, they went to Spain. In a port town in southern Spain where Wolf and Godric were looking for work, he picked up a fisherman's son named Gregory Badger. After that, they all ended up in northern Spain where he met another Irishman named James McCollins who Wolf helped out of a situation in a small pub. After forming the basis of Wolf's Blood, the crew went off to England where a purse thief set into motion a series of events that led to making Alex into the captain of Wolf's Blood and personal bodyguard to the White Rose (Mistress Rebecca) and also got Wolf's Blood commissioned by the William, Prince of Orange.
