Not long ago he could have claimed membership in  one of the great Houses of Balic. Not long ago he was a newly-elected  templar in Androponis' service. Perhaps with a little more compassion  for the common man than was healthy, but the Sorcerer-King had been of a  mind to indulge the people for a time by allowing him to hold office.When Darian Haraxes' men had come for him he'd claimed it had just been a  matter of ignoring some smuggling for the favors of a pretty merchant  girl. Templars in every city on Athas did that sort of thing all the  time, even if that was a bit against his reputation. He'd kept up with  that story right up to the time they decided that his family was not so  important as that, and he could be tortured after all. Actually a bit  beyond that; he'd kept silent until they actually did torture him. By  then his lover had escaped the city, but someone had learned she was a  courier for the Veiled Alliance. And that he had been covering for her.He'd been stripped of his titles, and sold into slavery soon after that.  He wondered why he hadn't been executed. Did they want a lever on his  lover? Or his family? Or was he to be 'repatriated' when Androponis  wanted to make another show of his generosity? In any case, he had been  sold, and sold again before reaching the salt mines of Rarun. And kept  at the most back-breaking labor; his captors had made no secret of who he had been, so no slave would take his orders, and  House Njeer was not about to let someone like him find a chance to use his mind or his natural charm to escape.[/sblock][sblock=Mannerisms & Appearance]Brandis is just above average height, slender, fair-skinned and fair-haired by Athasian standards, and quite attractive despite the scars left by Haraxes' torturers and various slavemasters. Every slavemaster who has owned him has been sure he was plotting an uprising and his escape, and told tales to limit his ability to befriend the other slaves. Their fears were quite justified; Brandis most certainly was planning an escape, and he was a natural leader; it was easy to see why Androponis' had originally decided to let him win election to a templar's position; rigging the vote against him would have streched the sorcerer-king's credibility quite a bit.[/sblock][sblock=plot hooks]- What happened to Brandis' lover Micala after she escaped Balic? Is she  plotting his rescue, or angry that he somehow let her secrets be  uncovered?- Does his family still protest his innocence, or at least maintain that belief in private?[/sblock]</blockquote>
