Alcarin Nowafinve

CanonOfficial lore from the booksSoVp. 13 SSGp. 13

Alcarin Nowafinve is one of the known Chain Wardens of the Order of Chain who followed the slayer doctrine, together with Borin Ironbeard and Raga of Bear Clan.¹

The slayer doctrine puts the development of raw offensive power first and specialises in devastating blows and constant pressure. Slayers usually serve in elite strike teams known as swords, sent when a threat is too dire for a single warden, and they have the highest death rate in the order.¹

In the Ballad of the Six

The Ballad of the Six tells of six Chain Wardens who rose as defenders of the light on Victory Day and faced the grim avatar of The Dark One. Alcarin is among them; the ballad sings of his sword dancing in a deadly ballet. In its telling, the six gave everything for their duty.²
