Full Record

Maric Ironshield is the grizzled and respected commander of the Broken Shields, a reserve unit of elite heavy infantry known for brutal efficiency in close-quarters combat. While not full-time members of the Grim Shadows, the Broken Shields operate under a binding pact with the Red Hand. A veteran of over three dozen warfronts and siege operations, Maric has survived encounters with cultist legions and Voidborn horrors. He wears reinforced iron-scale armor etched with scars and marks of fallen comrades. His shield bears a split helm above a broken tower, while his belt buckle displays a silver Eye of Ra denoting his pact status. The Broken Shields are stationed at Stonewatch on the outskirts of Arkest, in permanent readiness. Respected but feared — Maric questions orders that don't make tactical sense, but once committed, he never falters. Rumored to have held the line alone for seven minutes against a Cult of Teeth berserker wave.
