Biography
Odellan Tal'Dorei was the Sovereign of Tal'Dorei prior to his son, Uriel Tal'Dorei II. During the time of his rule, the red dragon Thordak came out of hiding and started attacking trade caravans in the Rifenmist Peninsula and Verdant Expanse, the latter of which sent for aid and protection against a "nightmare of fire and malice". Odellan considered it a misuse of resources to send reinforcements that far south to "outsider" communities without confirmation of the threat. Two years later, c. 794 or 795 PD, the Council of Tal'Dorei heard reports of a great red dragon and began to take the threat seriously.
Relationships
Odellan single-handedly prevented the Tal'Dorei Council from taking action in the two years that Thordak was ravaging the outlying parts of the empire, and that failure of singular power likely affected his son Uriel's ultimate decision to abdicate as sovereign and turn rulership over to the Tal'Dorei Council.
