Backstory: Steinn and his older brother Ragnar were born in Iceland as part of a repopulation program. As teenagers, they were separated and sold to the RSOA. Ragnar became a soldier, while Steinn, deemed unfit for combat due to his mutism, was forced into the SR program. There, Steinn endured constant abuse for resisting orders.

Ragnar eventually found Steinn near-death and deeply traumatized. He rescued his brother and they escaped the RSOA together. The brothers survived in the wasteland, taken in for a time by old world revivalists who shaped Ragnar's rebellious beliefs. Now, Steinn is a fighter for the Old Worlders. His attacks on RSOA soldiers and supply lines have earned him a large bounty. Relationships: Ragnar Einarson - Older brother and best friend. Steinn is fiercely loyal to Ragnar. Grins and signs rapidly, before scrawling on his notepad: MY BROTHER. RAGNAR. LEADER. GOOD FIGHTER. BEST FRIEND.

Goal: To rebel against and destroy the RSOA alongside Ragnar.
