Thrommel IV was a notable and valorous paladin, a former Prince of Furyondy in the late 6th Century.

Description

Thommel IV was a handsome mail-clad human man with golden hair. He wore a white surcoat, quartered by the arms of Furyondy and Veluna and the antlers of the Knights of the Hart, in red. He wore a gold belt at his waist, with a dagger. About his neck he had a gold chain with an emblem of a crown and crescent moon; on his left hand was a gold ring with a similar device.

Prince Thrommel's lineage can be traced directly to the mythical King Roland of Ferrond and Feruin.

The Prince disappeared near the northern border of his realm 573 CY[1] and has been declared dead. He was King Belvor IV's only son and heir.

Personality

Thrommel represented all that is good and noble in humanity. A true and faithful paladin of his god, Rao, he pledged to wipe out the Temple of Elemental Evil.

Possessions

Thrommel wielded a shield and a beautiful sword.

The sword has a hilt of silver and gold wire, most cunningly wrought. Its guard and pommel are set with 9 different gems: Emerald, Jet, Amethyst, Tourmaline, Topaz, Peridot, Aquamarine, Garnet and Spinel. Its scabbard is likewise trimmed with precious metal and decorated with many gems of green and golden hue.

Activities

Thrommel was the Hero of Emridy Meadows in the battle against the Horde of Elemental Evil. He was head of the war council and leader of the forces that make up the Righteous Host. Through sheer force of will, Thrommel pulled together a worthy army and marched south to confront the darkness.

He believed his Righteous Host could defeat the forces of the temple, but he tempered his convictions with the dire reality of the situation. He knew his army lacked numbers and experience, and he had a challenging time keeping the egos of his commanders in check. He believed that a few victories —no matter how small— would unite the Righteous Host, strengthening the resolve of his troops in time to meet the greater threat. This has led him to seek unconventional methods for weakening the temple’s forces. It was his assertion a few key strikes where the enemy was most vulnerable would bolster morale.
