Azrael

Azrael is a mysterious protagonist of the Sabre of Meitor Campaign. Joining forces with the Heroes of Time at Plage, Azrael's backstory has not been fully explained due to his amnesia.

A man who is paranoid of betrayal, he is a man of unanswered questions, notably of his past and the strange blue sword he has had as far as his memory stretches.

During a trip to the Shadow Plane, the Heroes of Time were saved by an illusion who resembled Azrael in the same room as Azrael himself, leading some to speculate that he may be much more powerful than anticipated.

Sabre of Meitor Campaign
Azrael's first memories of his current life was awakening in Norden, with only his sword and some gold. After thanking the homeowner who sheltered him, Azrael attempted to leave Norden, but was stopped by a figure asking for help.

Hesitant at first, this man gave him a mission; to kill a defector of the Clans of the Thicket, a man known as Cenon. According to the man, Cenon had recently arrived in Plage. Before setting off, Azrael warned that a betrayal would result in this man's death. The man merely smiled." 'If it comes to that... the name's Drago Duneswal'"As it turns out, Cenon was already dead, slain in Druin by the perpetrator of The Black Speech alongside Astrul Desway. Whilst in Plage, Azrael realised that Cenon was not about, but was interrupted due to his meeting with the Heroes of Time.

Identity Theories
Azrael's identity is a source of much speculation. Having been apparently found frozen in a glacier by a man north of Norden carrying only his sword, many people suspect that Azrael is significantly older than he appears.

Furthermore, the sword has undergone four colour shifts, from Blue to Purple when Harry's dad was killed; from Purple to Red at the assassination of Aeris Rawle; from Red to Black at the assassination of Crystine the Sly and from Black to Red by sparing Ser Roland Osteler during The Holy Conflict. This mimics the old Aura Sword said to have been wielded by the Soul Hero Liken during the Year of Reckoning. Another piece of evidence is that during a trip to the Shadow Plane, the Heroes of Time were saved by an illusion resembling Azrael.
