Marshal Older Ravenguard
Marshal Older Ravenguard
Marshal Older Ravenguard is the military leader of Baldur's Gate and one of the most tactically and martially accomplished members of the Council of Waterdeep.
Background
Marshal Ravenguard commands Baldur's Gate's military forces and has been actively deploying adventuring parties to disrupt Cult of the Dragon operations throughout the region.
Role in Campaign
At the Council of Waterdeep in Session 43, when Shade asked if Deez Nuts' deputy status gave them "kill on sight" authority over the Bronze Blades, Marshal Ravenguard quickly shut down the request.
He defended the Bronze Blades as one of the adventuring parties he had personally sent to disrupt cult plans, noting their work has been "invaluable in preventing the cult from gaining more power than they already have." He instructed Deez Nuts to offer any assistance possible to the Bronze Blades if encountered.
Marshal Ravenguard had commissioned Sir Cedric and the Bronze Blades to investigate dragon activity in Garmok's Mine area, giving them official backing for their mission.
Personality
Ravenguard is pragmatic and values results over reputation. He recognizes the Bronze Blades' contributions despite their tendency to need rescue, and he won't tolerate infighting among those fighting the cult.
