Lord Agren

Background
Lord Agren is a Paladin of The Dragon Guard, who was waiting in Preston to train Iskander.

Role in the Story
He was gravely wounded by the Spine Devil before the Heroes reached Preston, and was found by them after their first battle. He warned them of the dangers they would face, and gave Iskander his holy symbol. He had been infected by the Ghouls and was about to turn, but he was killed by Rasend before this could happen.

When Iskander prayed for Lord Agren using the gifted holy symbol, he was shown a vision of the Paladin's life. Iskander saw him rising through the ranks of The Dragon Guard, training recruits, and arriving at Preston. He seemed to be well liked by the townsfolk, but the vision was then invaded with memories of the attack. Iskander saw a shadowy creature with red eyes flying overhead, letting out a screech, and then the vision ended.
