Ordant Brid

Ordant Brid, a 'pure-blooded' Tiste Andii, was one of the five remaining Onyx Wizards of Bluerose, who resided in the hidden monastery of Andara in the Bluerose Mountains. He was more formally referred to as the 'Reve Master of the Rock', one of the Onyx Order of Andara.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 6, US TPB p.153Reaper's Gale, Chapter 8, US TPB p.197/201

Ordant Brid became aware that Silchas Ruin, the brother of the Onyx Order's god, Anomander Rake, was entering Bluerose territory. Knowing the others would stop him if they learned of it, he secretly assigned the young Tiste Andii archer, Clip, to greet Ruin and guide his party of 'The Hunted' (i.e., Seren Pedac, Fear Sengar, Kettle, Udinaas, and Wither) back to the hidden Tiste Andii refuge via the Elder Warren of Kurald Galain. Clip completed his task, but was rude and disrespectful to Ruin. When called out by Seren Pedac for his behaviour, Clip remarked that Ordant Brid knew the character of the messenger he chose to send.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 6, US TPB p.153-156 
Once at Andara, Ruin engaged in a fractious consultation with Ordant Brid and the other four Onyx Wizards over his quest to find Scabandari Bloodeye's soul. The wizards eventually reached a rare consensus and Brid offered up Clip as a guide once more, this time identifying him as Anomander Rake's Mortal Sword. Brid also noted that Menandore had recently visited Andara and Draxos Hulch warned Ruin she meant to oppose him. The Onyx Order themselves could not directly assist as their talents were needed to redirect a fast-moving glacier bearing down on their refuge as a result of the failure of Gothos' Omtose Phellack ritual.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 8, US TPB p.196-203
While investigating the disappearance of one of his illicit weapons shipments in the Bluerose Mountains, Factor Letur Anict convinced Orbyn Truthfinder to lead his soldiers to Andara to search for Fear Sengar and dispatch the Onyx Wizards. The Factor's twenty soldiers, along with Orbyn's mages, killed everyone in the monastery within four hours without losing any of their own. One of the Patriotist mages reported to Orbyn that they had killed the half-dozen tottering priests as they prayed for aid before an altar of the Black-Winged Lord. The mage was startled to learn that the altar was truly sanctified to the Hold of Darkness. He also expressed his uneasiness that the Andii seemed to have put aside their feud with the Tiste Edur to work with Fear Sengar.Reaper's Gale, Chapter 16, US HC p.458-460
