Argus Rodinar, also known as Argus Rodinar Sentinel of the Elements, a highly ranked member of the court of the Mage-Queen, serving his mistress as both High Seneschal and Supreme General.
Biography
Accompanying the armies of the Northern kin wherever they may campaign, serving not as commander, but as adviser and mystic. His duty is to balance the elements and to forge victory from potential defeat.
Duty bound to balance the elements and to forge victory from potential defeat, to manipulate the unseen forces of the world in an effort to ensure that victory for the Shining Ones and that the the Wicked Ones slaves, are denied their use.
Rodinar stands apart and aloof, from the field of battle, concentrating entirely upon his task. Before him stands the Altar of the Elements, a relic of ancient times imbued with unimaginable power.
Enacting his spells upon the flat surface of the alter, Rodinar aligns dozens of small magical artefacts in order to balance the power of the elements as they rage unseen about the battlefield.Changing the winds to the elven archers favour, so their arrows fly far and true.
Receding the rain floods, to allow the warriors to advance unimpeded.Deflecting or even dousing the fires that would erupt upon their heads, bringing in cloud cover to dull the burning sun.Should the earth itself be set against the elves, Rodinar’s spells can force it to shift and part to their advantage.
Rodinar’s spells are not all defensive, he can cause entire enemy formations to burst into flame, or conversely, to sink into the suddenly flooded ground and drown in bitter waters. He can call forth great storms that cause enemy flyers to come crashing from the skies and summon such tremors that mountains shake and rockslides crash upon the foe.
