## Biography

### Early Life

Alistair was born in city of Dalia, which fell within the Danan Margravate of the Fideron Kratocracy. He was born to Boris and Anya Ked'On. His father died soon afterwards during the 3rd Fideron-Sion Conflict, leaving his mother as his only parent. She raised him to be a scholar, but the military called to him.

### Military Service

When Alistair turned eighteen(1836), he applied and was allowed to join the Followers of the Forge, the military branch of the Danan Margravate. He started as a Sakir, 1st Order of the Martial Pillar, and quickly ascended the ranks into a Dasktor, 2nd Order by his twenty fifth birthday. He then decided to join the Officer Pillar as a Lord Spearion. He was paired with Vice Lord Spearion Anya Hi'Stol, and the two ascended the ranks into Lord and Vice Lord Halberd by 1856.

### The 4th Fideron-Sion Conflict

#### 1st Battle of the Hilder Basin

Alistair commanded the 8th Halberd following the start of the 4th Fideron-Sion Conflict. He was deployed, alongside the 6th and the 9th Halberds, to the Mount Hilder Basin as part of the Mount Hilder Campaign. His Halberd engaged forces under the command of Abrami Nestoros in the 1st Battle of the Hilder Bowl, which resulted in a Kratocracy victory largely due to the skill of Alistair.

His Halberd was then deployed to the Maweer Pass, a long road that connected the League and the Kratocracy across Mount Hilder, to hold it as the other Halberds pushed deeper into League territory.

#### Cut Off

Following the battles of Heriati and Hastomos, Alistair and the 8th Halberd was cut off atop Mount Hilder. They were beset by a renewed offensive by the League, culminating in the Battle of the Maweer Pass, in which the 8th Halberd retreated from Mount Hilder. Alistair remained behind to ferry wounded and valuable supplies, then helped collapse the pass as he retreated as well.

#### Retreat through the Hilder Basin

Alistair and the 8th Halberd retreated from Mount Hilder through the Hilder Basin. Forces from **PLACEHOLDER HERIR FORCES** began to cut them off. This started the 2nd Battle of the Hilder Basin, which resulted in the deaths of a majority of the Halberd and Anya Hi'Stol. Alistair and the remnants of the Halberd managed to escape the battle and return to Kratocracy lines.

#### Final Stand and Death

Now commanding the remnants of the 6th, 8th, and 9th Halberds, alongside Lord Lancer Aheros Nastor's 14th Lance, Alistair had to hold out against the approaching army. He tricked **PLACEHOLDER HERIR FORCE** into approaching supposedly abandoned lines, before unleashing a downpour of artillery fire and starting 3rd Battle of the Hilder Basin.

Alistair engaged the enemy, and eventually directly fought Abrami Nestoros and Arad Harnas. He clashed with the two, and was almost defeated when he killed himself and the two with a Frost Gorer. His body was discovered the Aheros, and he and the others killed there were ceremonially cremated and returned home.

## Personality and Traits

## Equipment

Alistair favored the Alisor Outfit of equipment, with included heavier and more bulbous armor. He preferred to wield a Danovor Barrier Lance, a style of lance that featured a second half-blade that jutted out the upper portion, providing a reliable arm guard. He paired the lance with a Nahrei Grand Gauntlet Shield, a form of shield that formed from the wrist.
