Talbert Sheepstealer

Lord Sheepstealer was the Sovereign leader of Old Thistlegaard. His ancestors were common criminals, stripped of their name and dubbed "Sheepstealer" to shame them. Eventually, they shed their past and rose to prominence. Beloved, they ruled the city for many generations but kept the name to not forget their past. Talbert kept a broken sword in his sheath, ruined in the battle that destroyed Thistlegaard and resulted in thousands of deaths.

The Froboz 5 first met him after Lord Hallowdraft's army of the dead was raised and sought audience with Lord Sheepstealer. Without knowing them, he did not heed their warning, instead relying on his rangers to report back if such a threat existed. The Froboz 5 left, only to meet up with Sheepstealer several weeks later as he and refugees from the destroyed city sought refuge in Dragonia.

Sheepstealer, his knights, and many of the former citizens of Thistlegaard took up arms with the forces of Dragonia, holding the west gate of the city against the horde valiantly. He eventually led a flanking charge outside the north gate in the hottest part of the battle.

He also was present for the founding of the Confederacy of Midgaard and chosen to govern one of the territory's. When the Froboz 5 returned from the Underdark, they found the land barren and scarred from battle with Cresca and her allies.
