Background: Alberto Hernandez is a veteran Almogavar, and served in the Sergovia Company of Joel Muniz. That company broke up after Las Navas in 1214, and Alberto drifted off and found employment as a Bouncer in a Barcelona tavern. Santiago and (insert name of captain/companion of Santiago) tracked him down years later and convinced him to join the Lumina Company. Fed up with his hum-drum life since the war, he agreed, and for the past six years things have worked out well all around.
Albert has a Lingering Injury, wounded twelve years ago by a spear in the thigh. This inflicts a -1 penalty to physical actions (figured into his combat stats). If he botches a physical action, this aggravates the injury and the penalty becomes -3. The condition will worsen with age, multiplying the penalty by (1 + his Decrepitude score).
Note that, though he served in the same Sergovia Company as Roberto, the two did not know each other. He knew Pedro somewhat and was acquainted with Carlos, but Roberto was just the creepy guy who served the boss. Santiago is also eerie, but (Santiago's companion) convinced him. Since then Roberto has proven to be a decent employer and not as creepy as he was when he first met him.
