In 279 AC, the forces of Neuberg were led by their Baron, Tholdur, to resist the incursions of a mighty force from the southern steppes. They were victorious and this Battle prevented further incursions by the Southerners of the Steppes for many years. After the Battle the Ring of Tholdur's House was given as a token of friendship and thanks to the Baron's most trusted and valiant comrade in arms. This mighty warrior left Neuberg for a number of years after the Battle roaming the lands of Khul, returning in 288AC to deliver Neuberg from evil. This great warrior we now know as Oiden's Champion.
