With no surname, it is known to few, if any, the lineage of Andared. Due to his being a recluse, there is even speculation on the accuracy of his first name. Some of the more misinformed and imaginative Lenfels have even suggested that the man is not a man at all, but an Elf, possessing terrible and dark magic. So far no evidence has been procured to suggest this, but when someone is fixed on an idea, it takes a good bit more than logic to convince them otherwise. Others have suggested that "it" is not real at all. But nonetheless, the consistent string of bandits being found (dead
or alive), caught in a trap of a decidedly man-made variety, are evidence that there is
someone out there, though who it may be, and their origin, is entirely unknown.
Whoever it is, the Lenfel that do believe there is someone out there have taken to calling him "The Warden of the Forest". His victims mainly consist of bandits, but a few of the more barbaric, and less sane Garhim are also assumed to have met their demise at "it's" hands. The general area in which these victims are found has led to the probably accurate belief that "it" makes it's camp somewhere at the southernmost tip of the Dragonscale Mountains, but mysterious sightings have been reported as far as the western end of Wandering Woods.
Judging by the wounds which are found on the less fortunate victims, he seems to forsake the traditional Lenfel armament of sword and bow, in favor of javelins, or perhaps a spear.
All other knowledge on the "Warden of the Forest" is speculation at best. If any information on him is found, please visit 5 Long Street, Strongborough.
P.S. Although his victims have only consisted of foreigners thus far, his true allegiance is uncertain, and it is strongly advised that you
do not seek him. That is all.
For great Lenfald!
