Ricard Hatamash
Ricard Hatamash (a.k.a. The Woodblade)
Ricard is the Lord Commander of the Knights of Mystic Fire, and an acting General of the Swords of Absalom, with authority over the First Guard. His nickname, "Woodblade", comes from his affinity for druidic magic, which he has blended with the arcane-focused sword forms of his order.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Ricard was born in Absalom, and has served the city from an early age. He started out as a soldier on the wall in Azlanti Keep, but eventually passed the initiate test to become a squire in the Knights of Mystic Fire, where he slowly climbed the ranks. After decades of promotions and public approval, his rise to Lord Commander was considered a mere rite of passage, and Kesil all but demanded he take the title.
In recent years, Ricard has focused nearly all of his attention on the walls, allowing his subordinates to manage the day-to-day of both the Knights and the First Guard. Rumor states that the Lord Commander and the Wizard King have had a falling out, and that the two are no longer speaking.

Education
Ricard was raised by the druids of Green Ridge, where he discovered a talent for wood-based magic, and a knack for logistics. Both skills were invaluable during his time in the First Guard, but even more so during his training with the Knights of Mystic Fire, where he developed an entirely new art in the order's school of arcane swordplay. Ricard is a well-known learner, and often invites druids and wizards to dine with him, to discuss the latest and greatest in the practice of magic.
