As of 4713 AR, Rohkar Cindren was a bandit leader active in the Border Wood of southern Taldor, where he led a gang of outlaws named Rohkar's Raiders.
History
He rose to his position after the deaths or disappearances of several other high-ranking bandits, most of which he arranged himself. Rokhar developed his faith in Norgorber late in life, and he is aware that if his gang learned that he worshiped the god of murders and secrets, it would shake their confidence in him. He was therefore careful to keep his worship hidden from his gang, going as far as to cultivate an image of being a necromancer to explain his magical abilities.1
Recent events
In 4713 AR, Rohkar and his followers came into conflict with a group of winter-touched fey led by the moss troll Teb Knotten when these creatures entered the Border Wood from a portal leading to Irrisen, on a mission to establish a beachhead for future Irriseni incursions.2 This portal event would later become known as the Heldren Freeze.34 Rohkar quickly realized that his bandits did not possess the strength or numbers to oppose the new arrivals, and instead offered his services to the fey. Realizing that Rohkar and his bandits could serve them as both a source of local information and as agents in the surrounding lands, the fey accepted his service.2
With the aid of the northern fey, Rokhar and his followers were able to overwhelm and kill the High Sentinels, a group of rangers that had opposed them in the past, and take over their lodge as a base of operations.5 However, Rokhar was uneasy about his new alliance, as he expected betrayal from his northern allies and planned to betray them himself once he learned as much as he could about them. He increased his own magical abilities while studying the fey, allowing him to animate skeletons into icy undead servants.1
