Count Andor is a founder of Dargarth and originally migrated to the realm from Darkon. He was a founding member of the Explorer's Guild before leaving it to pursue religious studies.
On his 16th nameday by human reckoning, Andor wandered out of the Hundred Hectare forest in the land of Moot, upon the Western Continent of Darkon, endeavoring to join the Mootian Scouting Guild. He served with passion and reveled in the blessings given to him by the goddess Eris and the War deity Tirade. He was granted a Lordship for his service to the realm of Darkon, which he parlayed into a ship to sail to the Southern reaches of the world. The ship wrecked on the shores of a lush and vast uncharted island, which he proclaimed to be Dargarth. He then slipped into a coma, presumably caused by hydrogen psychosis.
When he awoke it was as a changed man. He had lost his hatred of Dark Elves, and was intent on carving out Dargarth as a place for the vast drama of empires to unfold. He raved of great things, he buried himself in ancient prophesy, and he often forgot pants for months at a time, sometimes becoming the hermit, sometimes the frothing doomsayer. He wandered and wandered in search of the Gods. It was at this time rumored that Andor was half gnome, but few would say it to his face.
Andor left the settlements of the Explorer's Guild which he loved so much, and sought the salvation offered by the Holy Order of the Abbot. He found it difficult to conform to the Abbot's whim on details, but Brother Andor did his utmost, and was willing to suffer the consequences when he transgressed.
When the Abbot declared Mârdûr to be a divine protectorate, and when the monasteries became a haven for bandits and trolls, Andor knew what he must do. He humbly sought permission to be the 'Minister of Truth and Seeker of That Which is Good', where he could pass the tenements of wisdom onto the denizens of the Holy Order of Mârdûr: Positive Speech, Positive Action, and Positive Violence.
When Mardur lost at SkullBowl after the Abbott had promised victory to Andor, he returned his surcoat. And scant months later, Jebb washed up ashore Dargarth, and because of the adage "Where a few Mootians gather, There Is Moot" they were spiritually obligated to claim land for Moot.
