Caladorn
8th level (or greater) cavalier

    Caladorn is a cavalier born and raised in
Waterdeep. He has chosen to drop his family
name of Cassalanter (see Chapter 6) until he
"does something worthy of it," as he has told
his father Ohrl, current head of house Cassalanter.
This allows Caladorn to retain the privileges
of his birth, and be gracefully free of his
father?s direct authority. Ohrl is unaware that
his son is a Lord of Waterdeep.

Caladorn is young, sardonic, very perceptive
and intelligent, and fun-loving when he
can find an occasion to abandon his customary
serious resolve, in private. He is a
Knight Bachelor. Although he is not yet fully
aware of it, he is beginning to grow restless
for adventure. On several occasions, he has
accompanied raker ship crews into battle,
although the captains did not know that
their passenger was a Lord, only that he
was a bored young noble who could lend
them an extra swordarm. Khelben and
Durnan, and to a lesser extent Mirt, view
Caladorn as one of the important Lords who
will carry on after they are gone, although
they view his noble background as a handicap
to be overcome before he will be truly
suitable for such a task. As Mirt puts it, ?too
often that lad thinks like the blueblood he
is?arrogant, self-assured, knows the place
for everything and everyone--and dead
wrong. A little dose of the real world?d do
him all the good, "t'would."
