Beneseck of Bath (died 877) was a Palatinus and Warden of Faith of the Order of the Ancients in 9th-century England.
Biography[]
Early in Beneseck's life, "the Rake" (Sister Blaeswith) took him in. His delight in murder was clear, but to serve the Order of the Ancients, his will had to be broken. The Rake's method was to inflict upon him day and night the loud, incessant clanging of a bell. It became the signal to trigger his primal, murderous instincts. "The Bell" grew to be particularly adept at filling the Order's coffers with silver. He presented himself as a man of charity. In this way, he met wealthy donors who supported the Brimcliff monastery. Once met, it was easy enough to visit them, murder them, rob them, and bury them anonymously in the abbey's graveyard.

Beneseck's death
In 877, the Norwegian Viking warrior Eivor Wolf-Kissed tracked Beneseck down after finding a note at the Embert Blockade locating Beneseck at Brimcliff. Eivor proceeded to launch a raid on Brimcliff, during which Beneseck was cut down by a Viking raider and finished off by Eivor's hidden blade. Beneseck was unrepentant in his last words, claiming to have been a charitable man.
