Former Members
Joram - Githzerai Sword - fighter/swordlord?, one of the stranger members of the group. Joram was a karach blade wielded by a Githzerai swordsmaster with so much skill that when he died his spirit joined with that of his Karach blade and Joram was born!
Ash - Fire Elementalist Wizard from Tassledale, swept up in the wake of the Spelljammer, presumed dead
Jed and Ted, The Hurly Burly Brothers - Ted rides patrol around Dragonsmere on his Elephant. Jed's death however as recorded in Beldin's Journal reads as follows:

As we approached Serpent's Bridge, we spotted hobgoblin archers blocking the far side. With our confidence boosted from our previous successes, many of us decided to rush them, after all, remaining on this side would simply expose us to a withering rain of arrow fire. Throwing caution to the wind, I joined Troy, Rhiannon, Ted and Jed in an heroic charge which was extremely short lived....

Not only were the hobgoblins prepared for us, they had trapped the bridge as well. The bridge was liberally strewn with caltrops and drenched in oil. Our poor horses were grievously injured and we were thrown to the bridge and onto the evilly glinting caltrops, all except for Jed. Hanging close to the right-hand side of the bridge, Jed's horse faltered and bucked, heaving both horse and rider from the bridge. That was the last we have seen of Jed. Although his brother says he was an excellent swimmer, he never emerged from the raging depths of the river. [Jed died because he refused to drop his Orc made Glaive and swim like anyone else would do.]

Troy was raised and has since left Daggerdale to find his missing companions. He has not been seen at Dragonsmere and his fate is assumed to be the same as his old friends. Troy is back in the region and so is the rest of the group. Journal of Troy the Builder - Part 1, Part 2, Part3
