This jovial, brawling tacticaJ master is a
war-leader-for-hire of long and colorful
reputation in the Inner Sea lands. Based
in Priapurl ("a place small enough to
stand me;' as he puts it), Brandon hates
seafaring and sea combat, but is likely
to be found anywhere around the Inner
Sea (and along the trade routes west
toward the Sword Coast) where there is
dry land, fighting for this or that hire-
master. Brandon's exploits include the
slaying of the lich Tharuighagh, in the
hills near Saerb; the storming of Jhassilrn
Onespear's citadel; and the forcible
removal of the imprisoned mage Rhondethar
Windrider from dungeons in
Westgate, a task which involved SLAYING
many of the guards of that city who
were in the way of his aim. Brandon
will undertake aJmost any task, for
almost any master, as long as the pay is
good (20 GP daily, 1/2
refunded if the task is unsuccessful,
plus 4 gp/day per man-at arms Brandon
is asked to bring with him, if any). Brandon
has his own code of honor, and is
very shrewd behind his hearty front;
he will do nothing sustained to upset
the general Peace of the region, which
would if large-scale warfare broke out,
make his job far more dangerous, the
competition far greater, and men generally
less able to pay for his services.
He has served alongside Gayrlana in her
Mindulgulph Mercenary
company (see
Mercenary Companies), but while
respecting the Lady Bloodsword greatly,
does not get along well with her
inhuman troops.
