Notable Guild Members

 

Chaldan Ironhoof - Guild Leader

Chaldan Ironhoof, is the son of an enchanter/blacksmith - who provided the Ironhoof family name - and a lady Centaur warrior, and was born and raised in the centaur city of Lineoth. Born and raised to the sound of the forge and the heat of the furnace. Between this and the weapons training handed out by his warrior mother, Chaldan was shaped and forged into a fighter at home with the blade, the feel of plate armour on his back and with the immense wealth of knowledge that the old libraries of the Centaur city has at its disposal.

 

Chaldan first started adventuring with Dame Saloma Perdue, then a member of the White Tower (now a Deputy Leader of the Assembly) and, of all things, a Sullen Zombie by the name of Dismala, honorary 3rd Deputy of the Five Paths, official female zombie promoter of grouchiness and angst. No-one does angst like a Sullen. Chaldan adventured in Swinderlog dungeon with his strange companions for a while, until misfortune overtook Dismala in the form of a large horde of Skeleton Warriors, who overwhelmed her defences and slew her once again, allowing her to rest in peace at last. Chaldan and Saloma fled the dungeon pursued by the remaining forty odd skeletal warriors to the awaiting courtyard.

 

At about this time Chaldan noticed that the Centaur Council was completely without leadership and the guild seemed to be non- existent; a normally laid-back guild was so laid-back the membership seemed to have drifted. This wasn't acceptable, and Chaldan offered to take up leadership of the guild. What members still remained and were alert gladly accepted the offer of a new leader.

 

Soon after accepting the appointment of Guild Leader, the crown notified Chaldan of the existence of Noir, an undead centaur who was plaguing the good citizens in the surrounds of the city of Crownheart  and a new mission was initiated to destroy this undead centaur. Chaldan hopes that this new mission will energise the Centaur community with new spirit and raise the profile of his race.

Kellindel Warden- Deputy Guild Leader

Kellindel Warden was born in a small Centaur community near the city of Lux.  He grew up in a idyllic life, experiencing neither major trauma or loss.  He was content in his life in his little Centaur community until he had his eyes opened to the outside world after visit by the uncle.  His father's brother was an Adventurer and had spent many years working in and around the City of Wintred, as Merchant Guards or Centaur-at-Arms.  

 

Kellindel became enamored with the life and soon began working with his uncle.  He slowly gained experience and eventually gained his Adventurer’s license in Icehaunt Dungeon.  

 

Kellindel’s goal is to become a Centaur Mage. In Icehaunt he met a young Gnome Enchanter named Sefin Gnarlfist. He became close friends with Sefin and soon found that he enjoyed listening to the Gnome talk about magic theory and its uses. Kellindel became fascinated with the mystic arts, and decided that this was the path he wanted to follow.

Kellindel is currently on the Centaur Council mission,  and is fulfilling his deputy duties as he can, which mostly means, in his words, “I try to stay out of Chaldan's way!”  

Tancred Silverhoof - Deputy Guild Leader

Tancred Silverhoof is from an Estate in eastern Winterward in the Kingdom of Bereny. His family took service with the Estate Baron many years ago having wandered south after the fall of Lineoth. As a foal he was enraptured by both his own family's tales of ancient Lineoth and the tales of the great Berenian heroes of old told by the humans they lived among. He grew up mixing with the estate's human squires and knights, and became an expert in the use of the lance. On reaching his full size he was himself made a knight by the Estate Baron. And his full size is impressive indeed, for even by centaur standards Tancred is particularly large and strong.

 

For a few years he faithfully discharged his duty as a knight by guarding his Lord's estate from raiders, brigands and monsters, but he dreamed of restoring the glory of the Centaur race of old, and when he heard of the Centaur Council he begged his estate Lord to release him. Reluctantly his Lord agreed, and he journeyed to the Dungeon of Drax to join Chaldan Ironhoof. From there he went with Chaldan to Noir's Lair to fight the evil Centaurs, and now he rides with the Centaur Council.

 

Tancred tends to leave strategic planning to Chaldan and intellectual reflection to Kellindel. He prefers a direct approach, and the simple honour of his knightly code. This can make him rather rash in the face of danger - he will proudly tell how he charged the Dark Centaur champion Lord Crazy Horse single-handed, while Chaldan still winces to think that Tancred did something so suicidal. But, with his proud bearing and his burnished armour, Tancred Silverhoof is every inch the knight.
