Andol the Magnificent

Age	Height	Weight	Gender
24	5'9 ft	135 lbs	Male

Appearance

Andol is a fairly tall Half-Elf who has quite long brilliantly red hair, unusually so. His pale complexation is in stark contrast to both his red hair and his piecing gold eyes. Indeed there are those who claim that his elegant features, make him among the most handsome people they've ever had the pleasure of seeing. Others however, hold true to their claim that they've never seen a more punchable face in their lives. It should also be mentioned that Andol's left arm has sadly decided to move onto other things and is henceforth called "Cool Andol". Thanks to the efforts of fellow party member Omerok, Andol's regrown his left arm.

Andol's usual outfit consists of a set of full purple robes with bits of golden embroidery found throughout, a pair of black pants (of which the robe usually covers), along with fairly mundane looking traveling shoes the color of ash. In addition a holy symbol of Goar along with an arcane focus of bronze and amethyst hang from his neck, with a ring on his left hand.

Equipment

Andol used to have a light crossbow but lent it to Aileen following the tragic loss of her magical sword. Currently his three most important items are a cloak of billowing to help with his magnificent appearance (it also can't be stopped), a bag of holding given to him by the late Barbatos just before he sacrificed himself to save Clymene, and a ring called The Ring of the Grammarian which he uses to great effect by changing up to two letters of a spell to change what they do. As far as miscellaneous items go, he has a scale from what is believed to be a blue dracolich, a business card from "The Menagerie", an outfit from another time, a ring of friendship gifted by Aiden and finally a simple conch shell.

Relationships

• Aiden Thorin - Looking for a best friend wasn't Andol's intention while traveling with C&D yet that exactly what he found in Aiden. While amiable at first it wasn't till Jotunrath where the A-Team really gained traction, with the two looking for their lost and very drunk friends. Currently Andol views Aiden as a kind, honorable, caring individual whos positive characteristics are only equaled by his fear of losing himself. As such Andol takes care to let Aiden know that he'll always be there for him, while also trying to support him in any possible way. Such as being a wingman for Aiden's advances towards Raiah, not that a master of romance like Aiden needs any help.
• Aileen Lockheart - As Barbatos had given his bag of holding to Andol before running to his death in a successful attempt to save Clymene. Andol felt partly responsible and guilty when Aileen as a friend of Barbatos appeared only to fall into the emotional whirlpool known as grief. Since then he's watched as Aileen has struggled to find herself on their adventures with the dwarf often blaming herself much too harshly for mistakes or actions that they either don't have much experience with or that actually ended up saving one of her companions lives. Andol's attempts to change Aileen's views about herself while partly successful, leave him worried about her state of mind.
• Barbatos - Andol and Barbatos had a friendly relation with each other and he appreciated Barbatos's attempts to better himself. He also appreciated Barbatos's attempts to make and initiate plans, even if they often conflicted with his own and were less.... thought out. With Carlos slain, Andol hopes that Barbatos can enjoy the afterlife to it's fullest.
• Bill and Ted - Andol's biggest interaction with this duo was when he managed to convince them to drop Clymene's debts in return for a large amount of magically created scones. He sees them as shrewd (if strange) business men who have an unusual talent of appearing anywhere C&D finds themselves.
• Clymene - A worthwhile friend who just needs to find confidence in themselves, this is Andol's view of her. Time and time again she's managed to pull her weight or more, only to doubt herself soon after. Andol hopes that he'll be able to help them find themselves in a deeper way then just their race/ability. He's currently got her a present for Wintershield that hopefully conveys this, Clymene could definitely use a pick-me-up.
• Charles Harper -
• Desdemona Nox - While initially disgruntled with Desdemona for how she treated him in their first meeting, he's started seeing them in a better light after she and the Nightsisters upheld their part of a deal. He's more then willing to bring back her daughter even if it upsets a friendly God. After all, someone who cares so much for her daughter can't be that bad right?
• Edgar Castille - Andol quite respects Edgar's character, seeing as he's in a position of importance and yet doesn't abuse it. Andol does view him as a bit stubborn in some of his views towards the Conclave, though these views have been steadily changing. Finally Edgar's understanding love towards his son's especially Aiden, has won him a large amount of Andol's favor.
• Elvira Windhelm - After their first meeting after the raid upon the Casino, Andol saw Elvira as a commander with a strong sense of responsibility and justice. It was in the Shadowfell however that he truly saw how she was someone who persevered through hardships and as someone who'd speak out against discrimination without caring about the persons station.
• Hildr Firebrand - Hildrs a badass softie who just struggles to show that she cares without feeling like she's showing weakness. At least this is Andol's view of her, since he didn't face Hildr while she was under the sway of The Forsaken. This viewpoint was further strengthened with her action in the Shadowfell, after she regained control of her mind that is. Andol is currently hoping that he can help her open up towards people more and gain a more positive outlook.
• Incineryn Blackpyre - After the events at the swamp, Andol's opinion towards Incineryn was that she was someone you had to be guarded against. She wouldn't attack you outright for no reason but neither would she care if you were in danger of being killed by her spells. It wasn't until meeting her sister Maribelle and the events of the Shadow Fell that he started to understand that Incineryn did have a set of rules she followed. Which made Andol respect and understand her to a better degree even though he doesn't agree with her blatant disregard of lives.
• Laura - While Andol didn't get to know Laura for long, he saw that she didn't put her need for revenge ahead of helping others. Being one of the couple people to try and help Andol when he was grappled by a crocodile and one of the first to run towards a burning building to help. He still regrets that they sacrificed themselves to take out Gwynevere but hopes she found peace knowing that she finally got revenge.
• Logan Karstark - Andol didn't have the best opinion of Logan due to most of their interactions involved Logan getting into trouble due to some debt or item he'd stolen, this was only compounded by his declaration that he knew something about the Thorin family before taking off. However Logan's actions of staying to fight, trying to raise morale among C&D and stopping Clymene from running off, have begun to change Andol's view for the better.
• Lydia Redfort - Despite not having many interactions, Andol views Lydia highly. She's proven to push herself past her limits in order to help others escape multiple times and is an honestly nice person despite the weight upon her shoulders. Coming across her poem about Roland, Andol's decided to silently cheer her on.
• Lyra Roseshade - Fellow orphan, childhood friend, first love, savior. These are all words that could be used to describe Lyra in relation to Andol. Even their separation of over a decade wasn't enough to whittle down their bond, and after meeting again they quickly were back to their old rapport although with some changes. Lyra has always been dear to Andol and with Goar missing this has only been amplified, Lyra was the lifeline that helped him continue on. One of his deepest wishes is for her to be able to smile freely, without the influence of her past stifling it.
• Maribelle Blackpyre - Andol sympathized with Maribelle when she was struggling to deal with her sisters passing, knowing that everyone deals with such heavy emotions in different ways. He did his best to look out for them when they took unnecessary risks, but is relieved that they've stopped those tendencies. His current view is that she's a fierce, dependable friend, who isn't afraid to take some risks if its for an important enough goal or someone she cares about.... or something she thinks would be interesting/fun.
• Omerok - The guy who always has a plan and the glue that keeps the other members from making too big of a mess, at least that's how Andol sees Omerok. He has perhaps a few more quirks then the others in the group but that only adds to his charm and he goes out of his way to help others just because he wants to. His attitude of treating everyone as a person regardless of their race, political/personal power, divinity is refreshing to Andol. Hopefully he'll always be able to keep that attitude with all it's little charms.
• Qurouk Cluiekill - Andol knew Quoruk for a very short time, though in that time he proved time and time again that he could be relied upon and was looking out for everyone. A new generation of adventurers who'd hopefully help a vast assortment of people, a group worth sacrificing his life for. Andol hopes to honor his memory with his actions in the future, even if he's not an officially registered adventurer.
