Its A Mad World Epic4E:Pardallion

Pardallion, the Azure Wind - The World's Greatest Swordswoman!

Pardallion is the world's greatest Swordmage, at least to most Sage's reckoning. Some of her legendary feats include -

• Defeating the Red Dragon Ul Sur Macras, and punishing him by knocking out all of his teeth, and cutting out his fire gizzard, forcing the ancient beast to beg for sustenance. Now, Macras is the largest penitent at the temple of unrighteous warriors, a noted religious prison for war criminals,

• Holding the line at the battle of Dalgas pass, where she and her blade were the only things holding back the armies of Tolan Kas, the Red Herald of Asmodeous

• Recovering the lost tome of Ulan Shas, rediscovering the connection between blade magic and wizardry. For this, Pardallion the Azure Wind finally forced the Heirophants of Ul to admit that the Azure Wind and other related Swordmage schools were legitimate magic styles, and to introduce Blade Wizardry into their academy's curricula.

• Winning the heart and refusing the hand Lord Summersky, Eladrin master of the castle of dawn. "I'll always love you, but I have a husband, I carry him on my back."

• Donating an entire Dragon Horde to save the starving nation of Elissus from the 5 year famine. "What was I going to do? What do I need a castle for?"

Pardallion was originally the daughter of a dock worker and a whore on the hard docks of Rokashas, a middling size port city on the Sea of Dragons. Her life was originally slated to be following in either her mother's footsteps or her fathers - daddy was a minor crime boss on the docks.

However, Martinae The Azure Wind literally bought the brave little girl who defended her gang from 3 much older and tougher ruffians. While she lost, Martinae noted that the fast and athletic girl never gave up and always dragged herself to her feet with her knife. This began a 25 year life of adventure that would see Pardallion assume Martinae's mantle when student surpassed mentor at the battle of seven hills. Martinae had been poisoned by the Drow household of Venomweb, whom Martinae had stopped in their wicked surface plots. The house is now a wrecked ruin, their compound in the Underdark now a blasted crater, courtesy of the Azure Blade when she lead 7th Stoutheart Legion during that harrowing Underdark battle under the 7 Hills of Al Kulas, saving the Sapphire Empire's capital.

So, now, Pardallion feels the weight of ages on her shoulders. While by no means done adventuring or improving her art, she seeks a worthy heir. While both she and her mother-mistress Martinae had left many gymnasiums and studios, and the Azure Wind school of Assault Swordmage technique is now taught around the world, she wishes for her mistress' legacy to continue, as a generations long worship-act to the Goddess of Blades.
