Frederic Vladislav

A minor character from Death of a Darklord, Frederic Vladislav was an adventurer and companion of Averil Brilliantine, Silvanus Brilliantine, and Randwulf. A self-described paladin, Frederic was unusually tall and muscular,, perhaps abnormally so.

Background

In the Land of Mists, Fredric and his party were attacked by a pack of wolves led by Harkon Lukas in his dire wolf form. Silvanus was maimed, whereas Frederic and Randwulf were both killed. His party was rescued by Jonathan Ambrose and his associates. Silvanus raised his companions from the dead. However, later he found that he was cut off from his divine patron in the Land of Mists, and his powers of healing became diminished as the land of Kartakass resisted him. He called upon Elaine Clairn to use her unique magical powers to heal his party, and he mentored her in how to perform magical healing.

Frederic and his party went with Jonathan Ambrose, Elaine Clairn, and the Brotherhood of Broken Blades to Cortton, where they hoped to suppress the Zombie Plague of Cortton. There, zombies injured Averil, and she became infected with a fever. The fever proved lethal, as Silvanus found himself unable to cure her affliction. Elaine attempted to resurrect Averil, but the attempt only made her a screaming abomination of flesh. Just as quickly, Averil and Fredric euthanised Averil. Things turned even worse when Silvanus, Fredric, and Randwulf discovered their flesh had been warped by Elaine's healing, as their bodies now sported several aberrant growths. The trio hastily maimed their bodies once again trying to take off the warped appendages. They may have been killed by Tereza Ambrose, whom had succumbed to fever nearby and rose as a zombie.
