History
Alaric was a pure, efficient soldier, who had served over twenty years in the armies of Benalia. When Gerrard had abandoned the Weatherlight crew and came to Benalia, Alaric was the first person to test him.
Gerrard climbed through the ranks of the Benalish army to earn a high position of master-at-arms. At a certain moment the local assassin's guild, led by Lord Kastan, began to seek its recruits in the military. Gerrard discovered that Kastan was collaborating with Commander Alaric. The two had been plotting to get rid of Gerrard from the beginning, seeing him as a threat to their authority. Together with the minotaur Tahngarth Gerrard stopped the infiltrations by slaying both Kastan and Alaric. With his faith in the Benalish military strained to the breaking point, Gerrard agreed to rejoin Weatherlight.
When Starke il-Vec was on the run from the mercenary warlord Maraxus of Keld, Crovax offered to hide Starke at his friend Alaric's mansion, located in canyons in the middle of the desert.[1] Maraxus caught up to Starke nonetheless, killing Alaric while his ogres looted and burned down the estate, and capturing Starke. Seeking Starke for information about the abduction of captain Sisay and the plane of Rath, the Weatherlight crew found themselves at the ruined estate. Maraxus and his troops were keeping Starke captive nearby. In the battle that followed, Maraxus was killed, and Tahngarth and Crovax rescued Starke.
