"Forward, Dun Banner!" roared Centurion Digod, drunk as usual. "Kill, kill! For Kaedwen! Kaedwen!" | |||
- Digod, pg. 322 The Lady of the Lake (U.K. edition) |
Digod was a centurion in the Dun Banner, a light cavalry in King Henselt of Kaedwen's army. He bore the nickname 'Half-Gallon' for his capability for knocking back half a gallon of hooch with impressive speed.[1] He took part in the Battle of Brenna, as well as the whole Dun Banner.[2]
Biography[]
Second Northern War[]
In July 1267, after the fall of Aedirn in the Second Northern War, and Henselt's allegiance to Nilfgaard, the Dun Banner, along with five brigades, were sent to the Upper Aedirn, the long disputed land between the two kingdoms, to occupy. Three days later, they arrived and marched all the way up to the edge of the Dyfne river, prepared to meet the Nilfgaardian advance should tensions sour.[1]
