Zedruu The Great Hearted
Once known as the prodigal child of the Erlundi people, Zedruu is now best known for serving as their wisest leader, a voice of reason in a people still growing used to a life filled with passions beyond war.
Sacrifice to Sickness When Zedruu was much younger, she served her clan as a lithe and dangerous warrior, a worthy successor to her father's legacy. But after a raid on a nearby group of nomads, the Erlundi clan slowly began to weaken as a plague spread among their ranks. Though their healers struggled against it, no cure for the plague could be found, and after consulting their icons the Erlundi shamans found the plague to be a result of a curse by the last remaining member of the nomads. Though she too had fallen sick, Zedruu left her people to seek the nomad, and upon finding him, offered her life in exchange for the safety of her people. When the nomad refused, Zedruu begged them each day of the month, growing sicker as she did, until at last the nomad relented, lifting the curse.
Growth to Fulfillment Moved by Zedruu's dedication, the nomad offered to teach Zedruu if she would renounce the ways of war. Zedruu, realizing not all strength could come from the blade, accepted the nomad's offer. Passing these teachings to her people, Zedruu was able to transform the culture of the Erlundi minotaurs into one of peace and contemplation, turning their strength from the ways of conquest to the defense of others.
