Captain Brechin

Brechin Captain of the Outriders; the noble stag at the start of Fire Bringer who meets an untimely end in the first chapter of the novel. I was quite upset that he died as I took quite a liking to this character with his strong traditional ways and being very respectful to his Hind, Eloin.

He is darker than his son Rannoch whom has a much redder appearance and fewer colours on his coat. Brechin, however, shows the colours of a mature stag whom has fought his fare share of battles and lived as a leader in a way that was lost when Sgorr took over the Herd. Here his antlers are in velvet at the first chapter, it was hard to try and show the soft velvet as apposed to the rough bony texture of a developed antler.

*This picture has now been updated, Brechin has scars, which i forgot to great embarrassment ... but now everything should be up to date Thanks to SilverWolf8i8 [link] for reminding me
