Rode Generaals Leger (Red Generals Army)
 Bolverk -- Maestre de Campo (Field marshal)

The Red Generals are a study in extremes. Erik Eigermann is youthful countenance is shadowed everywhere by the brutish North-man Bolverk who is obviously decades his senior and who defers to him as any baron would his liege lord. These two lords are bound together by the Dominae ex Castris, Ilse Reinegger, and her influence over the High Lord and Field Marshal is a powerful but subtle thing. As the army marches ever eastward her influence is felt all the more through the camp and the camp is slowly being divided by two opinions. The first is that she is a sorceress who has bewitched these two great men or that she is the embodiment of the army's spirit much like Athena or the Valkyries.
The Red Generals Army is far from regimented and only loosely organized. The army consists of five companies of roughly one thousand men-at-arms, there are three crack companies led by high-born lord soldiers and two auxiliary companies made of disgraced nobility, newly minted knights and commoners. The desertion of the men of the 3rd Company took the Cross and joined Hugh, Count of Vermandois (brother of Philip I - King of France) there ceased to be a 3rd Company and few will speak of the 3rd Company save to curse them. Recently after leaving the Ilse de France, the army has taken the Cross and raised the Banner of Christ, drawing many young men of both noble and common blood; for now they have been organized like the other companies, but as time passes their numbers grow for the Glory of their Savior and the hope of Salvation, they are not motivated by adventure or coin, but by faith itself.
