Haakon was the undead leader of the Order of Stromgald in Terisiare and lord of Tresserhorn.
History
Haakon joined the cause of Heidar in his plan to counteract the World Spell, and consequently reverse the Thaw on Dominaria.[1] He seemed to be ten feet high, with a sword that must have been twice that. He was covered in black armor that somehow gleamed in the dark.[2]
Haakon and the Order were to keep the forces of New Argive at bay. In exchange, they would be provided with fodder for creating more knights to join the Order. On the fourth day of the Battle of Kjeldor, Haakon fought a duel against King Darien that lasted from dusk till dawn. The duel ended when Darien's men rushed Haakon out of fear for their King's safety. Haakon cut many down but was overwhelmed. His army quickly retreated upon his death, ending the battle of Kjeldor.[2]
