Greschious Helmand

Greschious Helmand was a Swordmaster from Sorrowwood during The Age of Kingdoms famed for his unique style of 'Black Wood Fencing" which was a geometric and angular fencing style. He was contemporaries with Furlano Liberi and the two apparently held much respect for the other.

He was eventually killed by assassins who poisoned his ale. It is still debated who murdered him and why, but many scholars believe that his death was meant to stand as a political statement by Sorrowwood radicals who feared their culture was becoming 'Centralized' by the larger city-states.
