Slade Destinaxe was a dwarf paladin of Moradin who adventured in Cormyr during the late 15th century DR.[1][note 1]

Every night she badgers me! "We can't question them if they are dead!" They're evil! Why would we WANT to question them?
— Slade[1]
It is true, their words are poison.

Description[]

Slade had long white hair and matching twin-forked beard, wearing a suit of plate armor and carrying a large round shield.[1]

Personality[]

"Stay with the party?" I know what I'm doing! Stay with me!
— Slade[1]
Besides it is not "charging ahead", it is "being the vanguard". You are very tactically minded.
— Mystia[1]

Slade was very stubborn, simplistic, and aggressive in regards to the grand questions of good versus evil. He believed wholeheartedly that evil must be smote as quickly and efficiently as possible, with no planning or chit-chat beforehand.[1]

History[]

Perhaps you have not seen her yet, but there is a bard further inside this castle, likely drunkenly talking someone's head off about how I do my job.
Is our purpose to comb every nook and cranny, or to move at an infernal snail's pace? No!
Have I mentioned that she always attempts to parley with our foes? What good she does the party, I cannot say!
— Slade[1]

Slade stayed the night at the ruined Beckside Castle on the High Road around the time of the Sschindylryn invasion of Eveningstar. That night, he held Mystia Hollygrove hostage for hours with endless rambling complaints about his bard companion Lyrica Whitestone, who preferred to do more than kill everything they encountered. Mystia was eventually beaten down into just agreeing with whatever he said, in the hopes he would eventually calm down and stop.[1]

Notes[]

  1. Menace of the Underdark (including Web of Chaos) is dated to the period of 14841485 DR, as it references the ongoing Darkening. Shadowfell Conspiracy (including Disciples of Shadow, Shadow Under Thunderholme, The Druid's Deep, and The High Road of Shadows) are dated to the same period, as they are stated to take place at roughly the same time as Menace of the Underdark.
