History[]
Tyndal was the son of a merchant. In the Year of the Penitent Rogue, 931 DR, he traveled north from Baldur's Gate with a merchant caravan. He killed a group of lizardfolk[4] while armed only with a dagger.[5]
Once he grew to adulthood, he married the local lord's daughter and appointed himself as duke. As a duke, he then founded Daggerford by building it on a castle ruin. Tyndal's bridge, the bridge visitors to Daggerford from the south needed to cross, was named after him.[5]
These stories were not mere legend but historical facts according to Darfin Floshin who was already alive when these events happened.[5]
