Furrante Shadeak

Furrante Shadeak is a human prince of Skollenhaug who fled the empire and became the 20th Time Lord.

Furrante never enjoyed his life as a Prince in the palace of Wesjard, and always craved the life of adventure. He would often sneak out, earning him the name The Absent Prince. When he was 13 he ran away with a group of adventurers he had met in the city.

Furrante became a very accomplished adventurer and hero, and earned some modest fame. This gained the attention of Avlon, who appointed him her 20th Time Lord. She introduced him to The Time Forger, who made him The Princely Render.

After nearly a decade of adventure, Furrante heard the news of his brother, the current Emperor of Skollenhaug's death. He returned home and decided to spend some time settling back with his family. He played a big role in raising his brother's kids, and began to realize that perhaps he did not want to return to the life of a Time Lord. After his nephew took over as Emperor, he left once again.

Furrante fell in love with an eladrin princess named Anna'alda. He wanted to settle down and marry her, but the Time Lords demanded too much of him. He decided to once and for all give up on the Time Lord life stay in her time to live with her, and she gave up her royalty to live with him. Furrante changed his name to David Del-Furrante and they hid away. He also hid The Princely Render away in the jungle of Ythrugk, where it would stay hidden until it was discovered by Dondor Zezzar.

When their son Dorian was born, he became heir to both thrones.

David could only hide for so long - when the evil aspect of Tiamat invaded the material plane and attacked the city of Sharn while he was visiting, he gave himself up to let Anna’alda escape. Tiamat understood who it was she had captured, and she put a Lenkos parasite in him to control him.

A Lenkos parasite is a magical creature that manifests as a black cloud that can enter any orifice. It seeps into the brain and pilots the body, acting with amnesia. If someone can control the parasite they can give it very basic commands, but it has a very limited intelligence - yet it still retains all of the abilities of the host. It acts as the host would with amnesia, but with a deep desire to also accomplish the tasks assigned to it.

Tiamat assigned Furrante to one of her Generals, Dark Fang Gwilym and gave the parasite the command to hunt down Anna'alda. Dark fang was given a magic ring that could summon Furrante back to him at any time, and they set off on their hunt. Furrante used The Princely Render during his travels, and discovered that Dorian was using it at the same time. They began to leave each other messages on the sword and communicate.

Gwilym had a contact tip him off when The Wanderers of the Expanse came through Invergarry. He and Furrante confronted the Wanderers with some Abishai and Draconians on a train to Wesjard. A Githyanki knight riding a red dragon interrupted the fight and forced Gwilym and Furrante to escape into a pocket dimension intending to be picked up by Tiamat. Ziir and Dondor managed to enter the pocket dimension before it closed.

At the behest of The Wanderers of the Expanse, Tammy opened the pocket dimension and freed Ziir, Dondor, Furrante, and Gwilym. Gwilym escaped, while the rest rejoined the Wanderers in Ragabash's study trove. They have Furrante frozen in a ice block while they decide what to do with him and the Lenkos parasite.
