I personally have loved magnus as a character since I read about him in mk1(the first edition of warmachine). He always reminded me of my dad, which is pretty cool. A man who earned his knowledge of machinery and forged his own path, like all mercenaries a rugged individual. Anyway, reading about how he was once the right hand of the king and was fighting to see what was right restored. In the recent novel blood of kings, we find magnus vindicated and leaving it at that to not post spoilers. D
oesn’t hurt that I have always liked the name magnus…
