Story[edit | hide | hide all]

― Alkin's portrait in Under the Jolly Roger Horn of the Abyss

A former sergeant in the Tatalian army. When Jeremy was shipwrecked on his island, Alkin allied with him against a Kreegan invasion. After defeating the demons, Jeremy left the town of Utopia under his control and sailed away.

Appearances[edit | hide]

Foolhardy Waywardness
Lost at Sea as an enemy.
Their End of the Bargain as an enemy.
Birth of a Barbarian
A Tough Start as an enemy.
Under the Jolly Roger
Devil Sunrise as a player hero.

The following Heroes Chronicles campaign happens long before the Restoration Wars, so this appearance should not be considered canonical.

Revolt of the Beastmasters
The War for the Mudlands as an enemy.

Specialty[edit | hide]

The in-game description "Increases the Attack and Defense skills of any Gorgons or Mighty Gorgons for each level attained after 5th level." is erroneous in "each level attained" moment, and lacks the speed bonus information. (Description is fixed in HotA Horn of the Abyss).

Unlike the native terrain speed bonus, the creature specialty speed bonus can affect the hero's movement points in case the creature is the slowest one in the army.
