Eric of Truestone (? PC - 1232 PC) was a male Solamnic human that was a noble Knight of the Rose. He had a stern countenance, he was a known dragon-slayer, and a holy paladin from the High Clerist's Tower.
The Dragon[]
Eric was one of four dragonslayers summoned to the Bitter Ale Inn in Fredericksborough by Gondar, Seneschal of King Frederick, to slay a Red Dragon. The red dragon had taken the ransom that was to be used to secure King Frederick's freedom from his dark brother, the Duke of Norhampton. Eric agreed, feeling that the red dragon in question was also the same dragon that had stolen Vinas Solamnus' Finger.
Eric met his fate beneath the Black Mountain, home to the dragon. After locating the dragons' lair, Gondar revealed his true form that of the Red Dragon. Eric called upon Paladine to assist him, but to Gondar, Paladine must have been busy at the time and burned Eric to ash with his dragon fire.
