A leader of Scotland in the 14th century, this person was one of the most renowned warriors of their generation and led the first Scottish War of Independence against the English. Thanks to both a handful of victorious battles, like Loudoun Hill and Bannockburn, mixed with guerilla tactics, they were able to establish Scotland's independence and even moved on to raiding northern England and into Ireland - truly a thorn in King Edward II's rule over England.
