Holger Blackhand

Holger Black Hand is jarl of Faroe in the Witcher 3: Wild Hunt.

Journal entry

 * The dour-faced jarl of Faroe owed his nickname to the dark coloring of his hand and forearm, left there by frostbite he suffered when his longship hit an underwater boulder during a freak autumn blizzard.


 * Even judging by Skellige standards, where pillaging and plundering are practically rites of passage, Holger was considered a brutal pirate and raider. This opinion surely resulted from the fact that he attacked the villages and ships of enemy Skellige clans with as much verve as he did the coastal settlements of Cidaris, Novigrad and Nilfgaard.
