Editing Caedric Vindae (section)

==== Dalgenen Escape ====
Once joining The Lightbringers in Vallaki, Caedrics determination, to not only kill Strahd, but escape the cursed land, was immense. As a paladin, his innate abilities were of great usefulness in the fight against the swarms of Undead that the Vampire Lord controlled. He often synergized well with his holy counterparts, Baldur 'Scrollstutter' Gerrick and Reed Tealeaf. During his time in Dalgenen, Caedric accrued his own magical items. Examples of this are; Vladimir Horngaard's greatsword, The Icon Of Ravenloft and Sergei Von Zarovich's holy armour. After going through many of Strahds allies, such as the Druids of Yester Hill and Baba Lysaga, the group eventually arrived to Ravenloft for the second time to confront [[Strahd Von Zarovich]]. It was in this confrontation that The Sun Sword, wielded by [[Daevalur Sunmeadow|Devalur Sunmeadow]], truly began to show its value, forcing Strahd to run from the group, as the hasted dwarf [[Gokher Wraitharm]], pursued him. It wasnt until Strahd was forced to the roof that Caedric got to truly get into the fight, going toe-to-toe, alongside Gokher, against a polymorphed (T-rex) Strahd Von Zarovich. It was a grueling and long battle, one of which resulted in the death of Gokher Wraitharm and the brutal maiming of other members. Caedric left the battle relatively unharmed, only taking a minor scratch to the left cheek. 

Once Strahd had burned up in the sunlight of the Sun Sword, the remaining members of The Lightbringers gathered their dead and unconscious allies while Caedric explored the castle. He looked for the parties main goal, The Ethereal Blade; [[Clarent]]. Once the still-breathing group members were all conscious, Caedric found Clarent placed upon the Altar of Ravenloft. Emotions were running high, and after attempting to hit Vulmar with the powerful sword, they decided to leave the chapel. 

Upon leaving the chapel, they were confronted by Grakos, a member of the Elzahaar. It was in this fight that Caedric used Clarent for the first time, battling the glaive-wielding powerhouse with the Ethereal Blade. It was at this moment [[Orphior Thadali]] showed up, blasting Grakos away, attempting to shield Devalur from Grakos' Last Strike and teleport the group out of the castle. He only succeeded in 2 of those actions, as Devalur was struck down in the groups last moments in the castle, killing him instantly. 

Once in the presence of King Hillingham, Caedric parted with the sword which had made him o-so-powerful, and the group split for 2 months.
