Motivation:

What is their goal?: To find a safe place for the kids to live without the constant threat of the war and his marauder allies and to start a new life.

How do they go about achieving this?: By living a separated life from his old marauder allies and by travelling with the kids to different locations around the UK. he will do anything to get his goal for them and himself.

Above is the lead characters sheet which follows the same one used for the game characters so i am answering the same questions. the idea behind the character was to get across that Harold was raised in the war and fought for what he now feels is worthless. after finding the kids he changed his mind and although he already left the marauders i wanted to connect that as he travels with the kids he becomes like a father and starts to react badly to the marauders due to a new protective instinct that he has and while the story progresses he becomes more loving but also more terrifying.
