Xenk Yendar

Xenk Yendar was a human paladin and adventurer from Thay in the 15 century DR.

Description
He wore ornate armor and had a tattoo on his forehead similar to that of Dralas.

Personality
He was noble of heart but a veteran and survivor of many battles. He'd sworn an oath to combat evil.

Possessions
He wielded a "daggersword", a sword that could launch its blade and leave him with a dagger. On its blade was inscribed, in the Celestial language, the legend "Neither Virtue Nor Blade Shall Break," ironically enough.

Background
Xenk is played by actor Regé-Jean Page. He was confirmed to be a paladin class via a promotional video played at the San Diego Comic-Con 2022's Tavern Experience. He is described by producer Jeremy Latcham as the "ultimate paladin, holy, smart, on point, just very, very determined, and does not love the vibe of some of the other people in the group because he's a very moral man. He represents the player who takes it too seriously." His full name was revealed in an interview with writer-directors Daley and Goldstein on January 23, 2023, but the spelling is unconfirmed. Daley said, "He's a Paladin with this traumatic past. He's an adept fighter. He's incredibly serious and in many ways, the antithesis of the rest of our group of thieves. He's got zero sense of humor and feels like he was plucked out of another fantasy film that obviously creates a delicious rift between him and Chris Pine's character who is equal parts threatened and baffled by him." Goldstein added, "We always find it funny when someone's taking things very seriously and has no sense of humor at all."
