Isilud the Nightmare

"When he discovered how The Lady had forsaken him, he began to hate Bretonnia. And then, over time, he began to hate everything..."

- Attributed to Isilud.

A vampire of notorious cunning and ambition who was feared for his skill-at-arms. He become infamous across Bretonnia but very few had ever claimed to have seen him in the flesh. He took twisted delight in subverting that land's notions of chivalry and heroism. Often he would lure his foes into impossible decisions where they would be forced to break the vows they had sworn. Other times he would strike at an enemy's home after issuing challenges of combat. It was clear that Isilud carried a deep loathing for the realm of Bretonnia, yet paradoxically he came to desire to rule it.
