====== Seamus Gunne of Ealdormere ======
===== Persona =====
Lord Seamus Gunne of Ealdormere - also called Kráku-Hallr Gunnarsson (he/him) - is a Norse–Gael, born in the late 9th century on a large steading near the bay in Katanes, on the northeast tip of Alba (specifically the village of Wick, in Caithness, modern-day Scotland).

He is the first of his family to be born on these lands. His father, Gunnar Snorrisson, hailed from the village of Skogn on the southern shore of the Trondheimsfjorden, some ways in from the central coast of Norway. Gunnar Snorrisson was a styrsman and sea trader, and later served as steading headman. He named his son Jakkob, but since the boy had loved the birds since his youth, he soon became known as ‘Crow-Caller’. His mother Maighread was a local girl, born of a Scotti father and a mother who descended from the painted people. She often called Kraku-Hallr by his Gaelic name, Seamus.

In his youth Seamus took to the sea, trading with relatives in Norway and Iceland. He may have joined in a raid or two at some point, but that was long ago. He is past sixty years now, and lives quietly on the family steading with his wife, three grown children and, so far, four strong grandchildren. Seamus loves the land and what it gives to them. He does passable work with leather, repairing shoes, making harness and such. 

Some friends think he has the Sight, but Seamus sees it as just being a good listener. They all think he talks too much.
