Durindale

  Amos & Ardos
Twin red tiefling sorcerers with horns curling in opposite directions. Ardos is the older and taller of the brothers, with dark long hair and deep red eyes. Amos shares similar but lighter features and a smaller stature than his brother. The brothers found themselves in debt to the Zhentarim after Ardos fell ill from ingesting a mysterious poison and unable to afford the expensive anti-toxin and were forced to balance the ledger by taking on missions for the organization. After the Heroes of Durindale thwarted the Zhentarim's plans in the Ardeep forest, the brothers decided to make an escape attempt, hoping to discover a way to save Ardos' life somewhere other than beneath the indentured servitude of the Zhentarim. The party eventually discovered the brothers on their way back towards Waterdeep. Recognizing the familiar fraternal bond between them and with greater understanding of their goals, Parathrax restored Ardos' health and cleansed the toxin from his body. The party then offered the twin tieflings a chance at a fresh start in Durindale, which the two readily accepted.   Chalivon Dragoonmoor
