General Hining

General Hining is the Second-in-command as well as the leader of King Tyras's army and can be found in Tyras Camp. He plays a background role in the Regicide and Plague's End quests, and a minor role in the Catapult Construction quest.

He pins his hope on the catapult, seeing it as an essentiality to the lines of defence for Tyras Camp, and also has a strong disliking towards the catapult guard, finding him incompetent and a waste of army rations.

Quests
During Catapult Construction, he instructs the player to find the catapult engineer when the player offers their service to repair the catapult for him.

After the events of Regicide, he tells the player to leave as he leads Tyras's last band of loyal soldiers to fight the 'evil forces' that are coming.

During Plague's End, he is convinced by the player to strike at the Iorwerth Clan so that the player and rebel elves could safely gain access to the Grand Library, staying true to his mission to fight the 'evil forces' with the last of Tyras' troops.

Trivia

 * He may be based on General Haig, a General in the Boer and First World War, who pinned his hopes on a weapon.
 * His name may be a play on words for General "Hiding", as he constantly hides from the elves and the "evil forces".
