Moving quickly down the hall towards the gathering a large man in shining chain mail armour walks towards the Duke. He carries a long sword on his side and a crossbow strapped across his back. A long cloak billows out behind him. His brown hair is trimmed well and his grey eyes appear tired.
"Duke, my pardon for arriving late." He says, bowing formally.
"I am Sir Thantos of Moonvale. My Kings lands are far away and word of your request for defenders of the light has just recently arrived. I have riden hard to get here as soon as I did.
To those of you that do not know me, I have been fighting the forces of dark for some time now in an attempt to cleanse this world of it evil influence. None in my kingdom is better with a longsword and my crossbow flys straight and true. But most importantly, my word is my bond for I am a Knight of the Eagle Order. If you will have me for this quest I would be honoured to serve you."
