* Seathrun Brock was born sometime in the mid-16th Century in County Donegal, Ireland to a family aligned with the English Crown. In 1587, an envoy of the English Crown accused Brock of treason, going so far as to attack his wife, Eawynn Ingen Broccain, accusing her of colluding with known Irish rebels. The Brock lands were summarily forfeited to the English Crown while Seathrun and Eawynn beat a hasty retreat to County Mayo, where they became employed as riverboat pirates by the only Queen Brock swore to give his allegiance ever again: Grace O'Malley.
* Lord Seathrún Brock (born circa 1220), known in the Society as Badger, is a Hiberno-Norman descendent of Sir Arthur de Capell Broke, a Norman fighter who invaded England with King William I in 1066. After receiving a grant of land from King William, and without prospects for inheritance, Sir Arthur’s younger sons spread throughout Norman-held regions in search of land and renown. Several generations later, Seathrún’s grandfather joined John de Courcy’s Hibernian campaign in 1177 during the reign of King Henry II. Awarded land in East Ulster, near Meath, Lord Brock’s grandfather took a local Irish princess as his bride and bequeathed his meager landholdings to his only son, Lord Seathrún’s father. Lord Seathrún currently maintains the Brock estate within a small walled village and keep known as Badgersett, on the far northwestern edges of the Pale. Lord Seathrún is married to Lady Eawynn, and they strive to maintain a semblance of peace between the immigrant Norman merchant townsfolk and the surrounding “wild Irish,” from which both are descended. It is a precarious existence, balancing their Norman and Irish heritage, at a time when the English Crown is more concerned with Their holdings on the continent.

After receiving a grant of land from King William, and without prospects for inheritance, Sir Arthur’s younger sons spread throughout Norman-held regions in search of land and renown. Several generations later, Seathrún’s grandfather joined John de Courcy’s Hibernian campaign in 1177 during the reign of King Henry II. Awarded land in East Ulster, near Meath, Lord Brock’s grandfather took a local Irish princess as his bride and bequeathed his meager landholdings to his only son, Lord Seathrún’s father. Lord Seathrún currently maintains the Brock estate within a small walled village and keep known as Badgersett, on the far northwestern edges of the Pale. Lord Seathrún is married to Lady Eawynn, and they strive to maintain a semblance of peace between the immigrant Norman merchant townsfolk and the surrounding “wild Irish,” from which both are descended.
