First Fang Valzareth Frostbane

Race: Dragonborn (White Scales)

Class: Fighter (Battle Master)

Background: Soldier – Army of the Fang

Appearance:
A tall, broad-shouldered Dragonborn with gleaming white scales that carry a faint sheen of frost. His piercing ice-blue eyes burn with quiet fury, and jagged scars crisscross his muzzle and chestplate. Valzareth wears dark steel armor trimmed in blue-grey enamel, with the insignia of the Army of the Fang emblazoned on his pauldrons. His glaive, “Frostbite,” bears enchantments that shimmer faintly in cold mist. His cape, once pristine, is now torn and blood-streaked from the retreat through Duskrun Ford.

Personality:

• Disciplined and Calculating: Valzareth’s decisions are tactical, not emotional. He values efficiency over valor.
• Cold-Tempered, Not Heartless: While he rarely shows warmth, his leadership is guided by a fierce desire to protect those under his command.
• Burdened Commander: Carries guilt for the loss at Duskrun Ford, even though he followed his orders.
• Pragmatic Realist: Understands the true cost of war—lives, reputation, and morale. He doesn’t sugarcoat failure.
• Unyielding Loyalty to Innal: Believes his commander’s vision is the only path to Dragonborn dominance.

Abilities & Strengths:

• Tactical Wedgebreaker: Can identify enemy weaknesses and direct his troops with deadly precision.
• Enchanted Glaive – “Frostbite”: A weapon of legacy, capable of freezing the blood of those it wounds.
• Mistwalker’s Focus: Trained to fight in low-visibility conditions, such as fog and swamp battlefields.
• Battlefield Discipline: Keeps morale high under pressure; executes retreats with order and minimal losses.
• Survivor’s Resolve: Hardened by failure at Duskrun Ford, he is determined not to let another ambush succeed.
