Eldan Ambrose

Eldan Ambrose was an Amnian priest that came to Battledale during the Time of Troubles.

Pilgrimage to Battledale
Eldan worshipped Tempus, who came to Faerun in a ruined castle in Battledale. Eldan and almost one-hundred of his followers rebuilt the castle, naming it Abbey of the Sword. The Abbey of the Sword contained numerous portals in its many underground passages and entrances, and Eldan's followers took it upon themselves to guard them from intrusion.

Drow Invasion
In 1371 DR, drow came through an unguarded portal deep in the tunnels of the Abbey. The Vhaeraunian drow of the Auzkobyn clan attacked Eldan and his followers, who fought fiercly, but ultimately lost. Eldan was devoured by a summoned demon, and the drow escaped into the forest of Cormanthor, opening another portal to bring more of their kin to Faerun. The defenders of the Abbey have been greatly reduced in number, and all attempts to ressurect Eldan have failed. It has been deterimined that while the demon that ate him still exists, Eldan will remain dead.
