Alastair Mandrake

**Alastair Mandrake** is a major antaognist in *Divided Earth*. He is one of Auldrin Ironheart's highest ranking allies, and one of the only known magic users who freely live in Avalor. He is known to be an expert with Dragons, having learnt a curse that causes them great pain when near him.

## Roles

Mandrake serves as a supporting antagonist in Act 1, a major antagonist in Act 2, and an unseen antagonist in Act 3.

In Act 1, he serves as a minor antagonist in *Chapter II: Witch Hunt*, an unseen antagonist in *Chapter III: Separation*, *Chapter IV: Hunt for the General*, and *Chapter V: Assault on Fort Tempest*, a major antagonist in *Chapter VII: Arcane Ambitions*, and a supporting antagonist in *Chapter VIII: War Rising*.

In Act 2, he serves as a supporting antagonist in *Chapter XII: Most Wanted*, a major antagonist in *Chapter XVI: The Search for Severance*, one of the two main antagonists (alongside Eurylias Vandyssa) in *Chapter XIX: To Save a Dragon*, and one of the two secondary antagonists (alongside Malus Kagnir) in *Chapter XX: The Might of Magic*.

## Backstory

Alastair's backstory is mostly unknown, though he is a very infamous sorcerer, more specifically a "dragonmancer". He is well known for his expertise on both magic and Dragons, and for managing to cast curses and spells on Dragons, which was deemed impossible before. This fame, as well as his knowledge and dislike of Dragons, gained the attention of Auldrin Ironheart, who quickly appointed Mandrake to be the Grand Sorcerer of Avalor. At some point in his life, he was introduced to the Generals of Death and became a loyal ally.

Under the orders of Auldrin, Alastair conjured a very powerful curse that affected Agaddon Perditor. The curse would cause all of Agaddon's children to challenge them once they reach 50 years of age, resulting in their deaths since they were too young to face Agaddon. This would effectively ensure no Dragon grew to be more powerful than Agaddon, and would make the job of exterminating them much easier.

## Personality

Alastair is mostly silent and keeps to himself. Although a servant of the GoDs, he ultimately serves Auldrin. Alastair has a hatred for Dragons, and often taunts them whenever he's killing or torturing one.

He is also extremely wise, on par with Raveus Atrix in his knowledge of the world as well as magical combat.

## Powers, Skills & Abilities

Alastair is a human, but also a powerful sorcerer. He has the ability to conjure and cast most spells and curses, though not as well as Mordred Farray. He has an ability that is known to be unique to him. The ability is to cause a loud ringing noise that only Dragons can hear, causing them extreme pain. Only stronger Dragons, usually ones with legendary status, can resist this more than others.

## Trivia

* Despite being loyal to the GoDs and knowing their power, Alastair still cursed Agaddon. It is unknown why
