Sverkell

Sverkel is the elderly father of Ketil, living on the ground of his son's farm in Jutland, Denmark. ~!At first glance he seems to be quite a grumpy person, but he appears to actually be soft at heart. This is suggested by the fact that he helps out Thorfinn and Einar by lending them his farming utensils in exchange for their helping hands on his fields. This is further implied by his deep bond with Snake, even though they are depicted fighting a lot. On top of that, Sverkel is strong-willed, hardworking and stubborn.!~
