Askeladd (アシェラッド, Asheraddo) also known as Lucius Artorius Castus, was a cunning, mysterious Viking who commanded a mercenary band of Vikings that included Thorfinn. Askeladd was half Danish and half Welsh, claiming descent from the legendary Lucius Artorius Castus, for whom he was named by his mother, with "Askeladd" being a nickname.
