The Wolf of Badenoch Alexander Stewart, Earl of Buchan, known as the Wolf of Badenoch, was the third surviving son of Robert II, King of Scots and Elizabeth Mure of Rowallan, he was legitimated in 1349 after his parents' married.
Alexander Stewart was a vicious, bloodthirsty and brutal character, he abused his power and maintained a rule of terror across much of the Highlands by imprisoning and murdering those who offended him. He was said to be huge in stature with a florid complexion and jet black beard, he accompanied his men on missions to rape and pillage within villages in the surrounding countryside, and was merciless in his actions. He was consequently censured by the King's Council in 1388. His chief residence was Lochindorb Castle which is situated on an island in Lochindorb.
