Guest: Dakorandir of Eldar

Rate:

Like most hailing from Gondor, Dakorandir prefers a chainmail armor, with extra metal protection. The colder climate of the north has influenced his choice of helmet and leg armor though. The fur-lined helmet is more suitable compared to plain steel, and a short chainmail battle kilt would be too cold for long nights and travels. Instead, he had an armorsmith add metal reinforcements to a cloth battle-skirt to go on top of the thigh-length chainmail.

Guest: Dakorandir of Eldar

Rate:

Growing up as the oldest child of a Gondorian trading house, Dakorandir was raised to become a scribe but, like many young men, did basic military training with the army before joining the business of his family. Through contacts and bribes, he was offered to become the clerk to a Gondorian envoy. As such, he came to travel much in the northern Middle-Earth in his early twenties.

However, his master – the envoy – was a corrupted man who did little to help Gondor but the more to gain personal gains. In time Dakorandir's loyalties towards Gondor also diminished, influenced by his master. Ten years later when the envoy died, Dakorandir did not return to the White City but started a vagabond life making a living both as bodyguard and, at times, a scribe. Eventually he found himself involved in the struggles that Bree-land are facing, and old loyalties and tales of heroic deeds once more begun to remind themselves.
