History: Born in the Duchy of Brandiar, the youngest son of Duke Ebelard Brandebury, the last Duke of Brandiar. His father's surrender to the Witch King led to the fall of Damara in the war, a shame Edeland still carries to this day. Most of his family has been slaughtered during the handing of power from his family over to the Witch King, his father was merely left alive to to add further insult by Zhengyi. His entire family was slaughtered save for Edeland and the Baron's niece whom was a baby at the time. Edeland managed to escape with his cousin and his father's sword leaving his birthright behind.

Edeland Brandebury is a Half-elven child, a bastard born from a tryst with a strange woman of great charisma who wandered through the Duchy more than twenty-five years ago, she appeared a second time left the babe on the Duke's gates with a signet ring bearing the Duke's coat of arms. He was raised in a time of war as his father's duchy was under attack by the undead and beastial armies of Vaasa. He grew up gruff, stoic but compassionate and feeling for his people. Raised a paladin of Torm with a strong belief in his god and the community he served, he was trained as a physician and scholar. His people were of great importance and the loss of Damara is of great concern, he wishes to regain the honor of his family.

He recently settled in Bloodstone for to help with the defense of the barony and village. He has a deep love of his nation and a great fear it will never see glory again. He will always strive to protect the innocent, his other greatest fear is the line of Brandebury will end with him.

 His first adventure wasn't some much an adventure as it was battle, it was being pushed into service and fighting in skirmishes with the armies of the Witch King even at a young age. His need to try and lead, to save his people, even to find artifacts of his family to keep his heritage intact are amongst his greatest weaknesses. His father was a friend of Baron Tranth, so he is in Bloodstone to help with the village's defence. He is a rival of farmer by the name of Dormynthyr who wants freedom for his people, while a good man, directly rivals the Brandebury family.
