Ordonda (Or-dough-n-dah)
Knight of the Fallen (a.k.a. The Grave Guardian)
Overview
The most ancient of texts refer to Ordonda as guardian to the fallen, guiding souls through the chaos of afterlife to eternal rest. This turmoil is one of the soul, where one’s last day may even be their worst or most confusing. Ordonda valiantly treads the highways between life and death to blaze this trail for fallen souls. As a result, she is often patronized by the ill and afflicted who have accepted their demise and helps them walk with courage towards their inevitable fate. Ordonda can sometimes be at odds with Sarconis, who treats the dead as something to be contained. Ordonda instead understands death as natural but a lengthy process to fight for and against in the days of death. Ordonda’s clerics will sometimes seek out ghosts or undead with the hope of easing them towards the afterlife. She can also be considered an ill omen, a knight clad in dark armor who’s silhouette signals the imminence of death.
