An ironwilled Paladin with no room for negotiating with evil. Caedes is the kind of Paladin that detests the likes of heroes and showoffs who pose for painting and sculptures instead of kicking down a door and crushing a heretic’s head under their boot. Actions speak louder than words, and Caedes words are but a whisper compared to his thunderous actions.
When the common man hears “Paladin of Erdrydion” he might often think of Yinsylim Lichbane, slayer of Kelathar the immortal. A shining hero with statues made in his honour and placards dedicated to him at every cathedral. But it is paladins like this that Caedes detests - those whose glory resides in their own image rather than the power of their deity. Caedes is unsung in comparison, yet has served as a Paladin of Erdrydion for decades. But his work is not glorious in the eyes of the people, and he does not pose for sculptors or exchange flattery with bards who would write songs about him.
Caedes work is manifested almost entirely within the Courts of Erdrydion, acting as a judge and executioner on most days. But when the guilty cannot come to court, it is Caedes who storms where they hide, tearing down walls and doors and dragging them out snivelling, or simply dealing out his judgement then and there if evidence of their crimes was immediately obvious, slaying them on the spot.
Caedes now resides in Velandria, living within the quarters of Erdrydion’s Grand Temple in the city centre. His past is mysterious to those he surrounds himself with, as the order often erases the identity of its members if they come to them as repentant members. It is thought Caedes is such a Paladin, coming from a past of petty crime himself. What little is known about his past is simply that he speaks with an accent that is a mix of Draksbornian and Belfrian, but beyond that the man is a mystery.
