Lore:Noldan

Chief Noldan
Race	Reachman	Gender	Male
Born		1st Era
Resided in		The Reach

Chief Noldan was a Reachfolk clan leader during the Empress Hestra's conquest of the Reach in circa 1E 1030. At that time, during the First Era, the region of the Reach was ruled by ten Reach kings. When Hestra's forces were taking over the region they eventually encountered Noldan's clan. According to the Imperial accounts, he eventually surrendered and submitted to the forces of the Empire. In a cunning act of treachery he gifted the commander of the Imperial forces his flint spear purportedly dipped in blood. It turned out that the spear was in fact covered in lethal and very potent poison rather than blood. Those who handled the item before the deception was discovered suffered miserable deaths.

As of 2E 582 Imperial accounts about chief Noldan were accessed by the scholars of the Antiquarian Circle of the University of Gwylim. In the same year, a member of the organization managed to track down and discover a spear tip that might have belonged to Noldan.

Notes

• The recovered item is referred to as a Spear Tip of the Reach King, implying that Noldan might have been one of the ten Reachfolk kings from the times of Red Eagle.
