Duke Brundaire of Blackmoor - The Dog Duke
Lawful High Thonian Human Ftr 9, Str 16, Dex 15, Con 16, Int 12, Wis 13, Cha 14, AC 0, Hp 72
Duke Brundaire, also known as the Dog Duke, is the ruler of Blackmoor. This 37 year old man inherited the throne of Blackmoor from the Bloody Duke. Brudaire had to do alot of work to restore the trust of the people after the Bloody Duke's terrible ways had driven them away from the rulers of Blackmoor. However, his steady work for the common good of the people of Blackmoor eventually lead to him becoming a kind of folk hero.
In his youth, The Dog Duke studied at the University of Mohacs, just like King Uther would do centuries later. In his time at university, the Dog Duke befriended Marcellius who would go on to become a war hero of the Empire before moving to the North to serve as a military advisor to the Duke. Brundaire is also friends with the Elven king and both rulers have been working hard to maintain the alliance between the Elves and the Thonians, even though members of both race are becoming more and more suspicious of one another. There are some who refer to the Elven King, Marcellius and a few others as the Duke's Companions, but that is not an official term in this age. The Duke is married to Duchess Triolana and the couple have three sons and two daughters.
Duke Brundaire is aware that many things threaten his realm. Dark demons sometimes escape the woods. Barbarians frequently raid the coutryside and a sinister religious group calling themselves the Cult of Id have recently caught his attention. This is one of the reasons the Duke is trying so hard to maintain old alliances and build new friendships in order to protect his realm against threats from all sides.
In times of war or adventure, Duke Brundaire wears a Plate Mail +1 and carries a Two-Handed Sword +2 called Black Flame* (AL Lawful, Int 9, Ego 3, detect evil, detect magic, extra damage, healing). He will often ride his stallion, Tempest, and is often seen in the company of his many war dogs, which earned him the nick name the Dog Duke.
*Black Flame is Uther's sword in DA1.
The Dog Duke originally appears in the FFC.
