Character Profile: Fendri

The last Character Profile I will do from “Repercussions Abound” is Fendri.  He is a simple, honest man.  Fendri has been Mandrean’s best friend since childhood.  When they went to war, Fendri was his weapons-bearer.  Now that Mandrean is Emperor, Fendri finds himself as Head of Mandrean’s Household and personal servant.  As such Fendri does as he is told and runs a tight ship. Guards, servants and concubines answer to his every command. When he is alone with his master and friend he is often asked his opinion on events of the day.  Fendri is confident in his position and always tells his master the truth; even though it usually disagrees with Mandrean’s commands or actions.  Mandrean fumes under the harsh criticism often laid down on him but Fendri is untouchable.  He is the only person Mandrean completely trusts.  Rightly so.  He has no hidden agenda.  All he wants is what’s best for Mandrean, even at the expense of the empire.  It is a pity Mandrean listens to him so little. Anyone could use a friend like Fendri.
