Darro ir'Lain is Aundair 's Second Warlord of the Realm, Commander of the Knights Arcane , and captain among that order's elite Knights Phantom . [2] [1]
History
In 955 YK , after the assassination of his commanding officer, General Retief Dekker , while still a Captain of Horse, Lord Darro was given command of the defending Aundairian Army at the Crying Fields in the face of a Thrane invasion. Outnumbered, he nevertheless managed to brilliantly outfox the advancing Thranes, ably using maneuvers, spells, and archery to break their advancing cavalry. Had the Thranes not released a new weapon, the silvereye marauders , the battle would have been an easy Aundairian victory. As it was, the marauders were able to break Aundair's right flank, but with their own cavalry already in retreat, Thrane was unable to take advantage. Under Lord Darro's command, Aundair held the field, but only just. [3]
