Helge Olafson

Helge Olafson

Third Official Clan Chief of the Olafson Clan of Nilfeheim.[1] He rose from the Warrior ranks challenged a few candidates (Previously no record or history of him exists) and became Clan Chief. As the previous Clan Chief Heeimdahl Olafson as killed during a raid on Planet Diana around 2231[2] (exact dating of these events are difficult) his Son Olaf Olafson was just 4 years old and not able to assume the role of Clan Chief. Helge was not as strong or as big as Olafsons usually were, but he was a fierce and skilled sword and blaster fighter (Blasters were used by the Olafson Clan at that time)[3] and was as ruthless and cunning as the best. Helge Olafson was challenged by Heimdahls Son when he turned 16 and lost, claiming he had never seen a better fighter. [4] (around 2243 ) Helge led the Olafson Clan 12 years but was never a liked or very apporachable Clan Leader. Contemporary accounts describe Helge as a loner, who spend most of his time hiding in his cabin (aboard the pirte ship) Always talked with a rasping whipering voice (explained by a throat injury) And usually wearing a visored helmet over his unkempt hair and wild beard that looked like cut from a Fangsnapper belly.

[1] Helge Olafson succeeds Heimdahl Olafson as Clan Chief of the Olafson Clan in 2231 [2] Heimdahl Olafson was killed during the Raid on Planet Diana. While he raped a woman there, she slit his throat. [3] The Olafsons were member of the Progressives and one of the most active pirate clans. [4] Helge Olafson was actually Helga Olafson (of the Loneberga Clan) the mother of Olaf Olafson. She took on the role of a man to guarantee the seat of Clan Chief for her son.
