NotesWarlord-usurper and master of the keep at Castlecliff (later Trayalon). Held Caitlyn hostage. Killed in the showdown on the keep wall during the founding siege (ch-01, h-109). Canon: Admond Galund broke his neck with his bare hands; table record for this group's playthrough credits Solomon with the killing blow. His band broke; only the fire-sorcerer Char escaped.
