Biography[]
Background[]
Verdo was born around 818 PD. At some point he learned about Martinet Ludinus Da'leth and his message resonated with him.[3] Verdo traveled to Ank'Harel and joined the Ruby Vanguard in 843 PD, being sent to the Red Center and eventually to Ruidus, where he spent a few days traveling with a caravan of supplies.[4]
"Red Rural Revelations" (3x84) and "Intense Interrogations" (3x85)[]
In Razora, Verdo and other Vanguard members accompanied Willmaster Edmuda and her reilorans to the house of Elder Barthie, where they found Bells Hells. A battle ensued, during which Verdo, Edmuda and Petrov Godo were knocked unconscious, captured by the adventurers and kept in their portable hole. Although the Willmaster tried to attack their captors as soon as she regained consciousness, she was rapidly neutralized. After the adventurers interrogated Petrov and he spoke in support of Verdo's character, the half-orc was interrogated as well, and he was told the same thing: that his captors were on their side and they had been looking for Edmuda, who was a traitor. Somewhat cautiously, the recruit answered the party's questions, expressing his loyalty to Ludinus in the process, and his lack of connection with the Willmaster. Laudna threatened him with dire consequences if he disappointed their own "leader", Imogen, the daughter of Liliana Temult.
Eventually, after FCG healed some of Verdo's wounds and Barthie helped clean him up, he and Petrov were sent back to the caravan escorted by FCG and Fearne, since it was Bells Hells' intention to join them there. The two recruits were welcomed welcomed back, since the Vanguard had been looking for them, but Otohan Thull was also there and a brief and bloody confrontation took place between her and the party members. Verdo was not mentioned thereafter and presumably was unharmed.
