Biography[]
Before Queen Isabel's War[]
Findan, in Clash of Heroes
Findan was a ranger in Irollan. When Anwen told about the demons and the Blade of Binding, he did not believe her, but when he witnessed Maethorn being attacked by a demon, he trusted her and guided her to rescue Euny, the druid elder, and to free Godric, who was taken in chains.
During Queen Isabel's War[]
Findan's theme
More a poet and diplomat by taste and training than a warrior, Findan is less comfortable than many of his brethren in fighting at close quarters with a sword. He vastly prefers to strike quickly, and strike hard, but from a distance. His favorite tactic is to first weaken the enemy with a rain of well-aimed arrows.OffBck
Findan is an emissary of Irollan to negotiate with the Griffin Empire. When Markal rose King Nicolai Griffin, he was posted as a leader of the Elves. Later, he had to search for emerald dragons and even save Irollan's capitol, Syris Thalla, from the Undead. Per Alaron's wish, he went to Dragonmist Island to meet Tieru the Sage. However, Biara killed him, so Findan went after her, gaining the scroll for the Rite of True Nature. Before he left Irollan, he defeated Nicolai and slew him.
Afterwards, he teams up with Godric Unicorn and Archmage Zehir to defeat Markal. Next, they went to Talonguard to rescue Queen Isabel Greyhound, but were intercepted with Raelag and Shadya. After Zehir convinced him that the Dark Elves are part of the Harmony, they join as well. When Zehir peformed the ritual and Biara took Isabel, Findan was one of the heroes that went to Sheogh and rescued the Queen.
After the fighting in Sheogh, he returned to Irollan, only to find it besieged. He had no choice but to fight the Dark Elves, defeating Yrbeth and instating peace in Irollan. He restored the peace to Irollan and went to rest, leaving the other Elves to decide the High King.
