Barra Figgan

==Overview==
Barra Figgan was a high ranking Llanor commander that notably served as Duke Wilddar's Lord of the Field during the Uprootings. His wife, Fyona, was the High Judge for Llanoreid in the Provincial Court and was succeeded by their daughter Bria. Figgan's lifetime of service to Llanoreid earned him the title of Lord of the Field upon the kingdom's entry into the war. Despite Wilddar's decision, many of his subordinates believed Figgan was short in physical experience and lacked the vigour he once had to lead Llanoreid's entire force. In response, for the duration of the war, Figgan was determined to prove his peers wrong and led with a ruthless and unyielding approach. This attitude coupled well with Wilddar's council Head, Alfret Codding and the other unruly commanders of the Fellowship. During the war, Figgan became a close mentor to Bravaro Braitbirn, Wilddar's eldest son, and would come to consider him the son he never had.
After the war, and as a result of the Fellowship victory, Figgan believed he had achieved what set out to prove and retired as Lord of the Field. Though, he remained on Wilddar's council, taking the position of Head of Justice. During the Llanoreid succession crisis, Figgan remained loyal to House Braitbirn by supporting Wilddar's daughter Ashlin. When the crisis was ended by the return of Bravaro, Figgan remained on the council but was asked to retire in 231 AG during Conley Arddan's reshuffle.
