Ther 'Vadam

Pipit was a member of the Vadam family, rulers of the State of Vadam. He held the title of Kaidon and was an ancestor to Kaidon Thel 'Vadamee.

He lost a war with one of Vadam's rivals. The new Kaidon had Pipit and his soldiers in the keeps jails, where they were mocked and fed scraps to prolong their life of torture. Many of his brethren killed themselves, to keep what was left of their honour.

Pipit managed to escape after weeks of starvation. He had managed to fit through the bars of his window and scale the cliffs before swimming down a river.

For many days, he walked around eating vermin before entering a desert. There, he trained for for many years, his hardness brought him allies from other states, willing to live no matter the odds.

As his allies attacked the keep, Pipit scaled the walls of the tower and killed his surprised usurpers. He had their bodies thrown into the river where,legend had it, ran purple for a week.

Upon becoming Kaidon, he had his former Vadamese soldiers - who were to cowardly to follow him during his escape years earlier - to be executed.

His life was added to the "Vadam Saga," a wall with Vadam's history carved into it.
