He was the uncle of Naera, a fact he preferred not to bring up around Torm. He had great respect for the adventurer.

History
He claimed to have seen something of the road Torm (of the Knights of Myth Drannor) walked, strongly implying he had been an adventurer.

In the, he was the one to take Torm from the arms of a wench, his niece Naera, to keep guard on the spellfire wielder Shandril Shessair, then a guest of the castle. Later, he was the one to save Shandril from a fellow guard, Culthar, then in the employ of the Cult of the Dragon. The next morning, he was relieved Shandril wasn't staying at the castle longer.

Per some early reports, Rold was also a guard during the tests that Elminster did on spellfire. Those were not repeated in more definitive reports.
