Andal Horsekeeper

Andal Horsekeeper isa proud and humble man living as a horsekeeper in the western outskirts of Redbrook. As young he was abducted by slavers, and due to his strong physical appearance he was sold to the Arena of Qasr al-Malik. There he lived the savage life of a slave, training in the arts of close quarter combat to prove his worth and weight in gold. As an attractive young man, Andal was as well at summoned at night to please the guilty pleasures of noblemen- and women. For 15 years he served his Master, and he never lost a fight. This granted Andal his freedom, and he moved back to his village to refrain from bloodshed and violence.

That lasted only for a few years, as his village one morning was ambushed by barbaric ogres and ferocious owlbears. He was forced to draw blood yet again. With the help from a royal cotiere led by General Sid Smith and a few other Heroes, thery managed to overcome the threat. After the cotiere left, Andal understood that his fate was to fight the Horde of the Shadow, slowly appearing from the North. He went to voulenteer at Arthur Tanvorys office, and joined the General in his quest to find and destroy an insurgent in the army. The battle against the Eagle was fought, and the former gladiator fought with heart and fury. Seeing the General surrounded, he charged in and started a grapple against the most vicious of the Eagles lieutenants. This act of valor and sacrifice got Andal killed, and probably saved the Generals life.

Andal Horsekeeper, loyal to his death, was killed in combat for a greater good. He was buried at a secret location south of the Red Pass by a handful of men and women, admiring his courage and loyalty. May he never be forgotten.
