Ragnarr Mösu, also known as Sir Ragnarr & Ragnarr Sigurðrsson alongside Barbarossa because of his firery red hair and facial hair, was among the 4 sons and the only surviving one of his father, Sigurðr Mösu. Ragnar is widely known the first Head of House Mösu and the official founder of the House, even though it had existed before him as a commoner dynasty for centuries, for he was the one that lifted it up from humble beginnings to a noble house that later ruled over the Duchy of Redclyf-Rozania. He was also the holder of several other titles such as the Aesir of Aesirs and the Aesir of War (although the title of Aesir of War being temporarily held by him until a suitable candidate could be found) within the Duchy of Redclyf-Rozania thus making him the first person in the so far short yet ongoing history of the duchy to hold two offices at the same time. He was also knighted in the Kingdom of Norland when King Ragnvald Eiriksson Ruric reigned over the lands of the north, thus making him a Knight of Norland but after Ragnarr and the Mösu's departure from Norland due to disputes with the local government and unfair treatment, he considered and called himself a Knight-Errant, A Knight with no liege.

Childhood

Ragnarr was born in a cold winter of the year 28 S.A. He was a special child in their family as he was the only one that had red hair, red as the flame which gives us light in the dark. Some in the family saw it as a blessing and others as a curse from the Allfather. No matter how you saw it, he was picked on by the kids in their vilage. He spent many nights crying in the arms of his mother, Estrid Mösu, because of this but she always told him that some day they would respect and even fear him and even serve him. This was the seed that lead to becoming an ambitious and seeking or rather trying to gain the respect from others. As he grew older, to around the age of 12, he stumbled upon a man who seemed to be more of a poet then a figher. But never judge a book by its cover. The man could fight really well. Young Ragnarr was impressed by the man asked him to teach him how to be as witty and poetic as him while also teaching him his martial prowess. The man refused at first but when he saw how Ragnarr was being bullied he changed his mind. From that moment on Ragnarr's life would change. He would no longer be a weak and pathetic little boy who was bullied but something greater. Ragnarr and the man trained at every oppertunity they got.

During these times Ragnarr helped his father on their farm whenever he could, learning much from his father in terms of farming and alot of other subjects, some of them also being tought to him by the man that decided to help him aswell, alongside being told countless stories from the lives his old man had lived and what it meant to be a man. Ragnarr and his father had a deep bond which could not be destroyed, Sigurðr even put the little Ragnarr in charge of protecting the farm while the overall wellbeing and economics of it was put in the soft and loyal hands of his mother, Estrid Mösu, while he was levied into the Norlandic Army to fight in their wars.

It was around the time that Ragnarr was 16 that he first fell in love. He remembers it as clear as day and even wrote it into his journal.

"It was summer and I was out fetching things for (my) mother in the market when suddenly I heard someone humming a song. The person who was humming and singing bits of it had the voice of an angel. I looked around to spot a young lass by the name of Adela. Her beauty was beyond compare and my heart started beating faster. It was as if she had put an enchantment on me, a spell. What felt like an hour was soon over faster then (I) expected it to be when she dissapeared behind a building."

Ragnarr from that day onward would try and capture her heart, gain her affection. Although he would never succede since she soon left the village to become a priestess. This little pursuit for love was a break from the mundane day which he experienced everyday. When she had left he dived into a more hedonistic life style, feeling more or less heartbroken by the fact that he would most likely never see her again. He became the regular at a local tavern, Drinking, feasting and doing some more suspicious activities with the ladies.
