There's something calculating in his stance—the posture of a man who measures alliances like battlefield terrain, never quite at ease among those he claims to serve.

Sangiban was the faithless king of the Alani whose loyalty was questioned during critical campaigns. Placed in the center of formations to be watched, his divided allegiances made him both a potential asset and a constant liability to those who commanded him.

Description

A middle-aged Alani king with the weathered features of a warrior-ruler, wearing fur-trimmed cloak over leather armor. His muscular build and watchful demeanor reflect both his royal status and the constant surveillance under which he operates.
