by Falagar / Game Guides, Highlights, King's Bounty 2 / 26 Jul 2021

The guide below explains the three characters available when you first start King’s Bounty II, as well as their initial talents and lore.

Aivar (Warrior)

A long time ago, Aivar, the descendant of an impoverished noble family, used to be a knight of the Royal Guard. However, he refused to support the coup at a crucial moment that eventually led to king Claudius’s ascension to the throne. This got him banished from the Guard. Aivar escaped to Artisania, where he earned a fine reputation as a mercenary and became the captain of his troop: the Hounds of War. Recently, Aivar received an invitation to the Universal Assembly. There, Prince Adrian promised to pardon him and offered a good position with the Royal Guard.

Katharine (Mage)

Katharine comes from a long line of noble Rigern counts, the rulers of the rugged mountain region of Nostria. She spent more than twenty years away from Nostria, roaming the dragon ruins and the remains of ancient Antis, looking for arcane knowledge and magic. Unexpectedly even for herself, Katharine stopped receiving the taxes she needed to fund her expeditions and mystical research. Katharine’s nephew Maurice had taken over her county. Outraged by this, she headed to the Universal Assembly to demand the return of her power from the King.

During a clash between farmers and mercenaries, Elisa suddenly acquired magic abilities that helped her push the enemy back, away from her village and then away from all of Southern Lorian. Chosen by the will of her people, Elisa headed to the Universal Assembly. She wants the King to recognize her as legate on behalf of her people. In that way, she would gain access to military resources and other means of establishing order in Nostria.
