Captain Allav Hask was the leader of a group of four human soldiers from Dominaria, including Trooper Fost, and the golem Boom.
Description
Allav's face was dead and waxy, but his eyes burned with cold fury. He wore one sword on his hip that seemed normal enough, and one strapped across his back that was clearly for special occasions. This grander, larger sword was sheathed in a gleaming golden scabbard and wrapped in multiple layers of fresh white linen. The wrappings came loose as they hiked, giving watchers the chance to note the powerful runes carved into the sword’s scabbard and hilt.
History
He was a carrier of the Hand of Righteous Retribution, a powerful magical sword, and was enlisted by Vaan to kill a dragon. As this dragon had killed some of his men, Hask was more than willing to join Vaan's group.
Hask fought hard against the dragon and did tremendous damage to it with the energies from the Hand of Righteous Retribution, but he did not know he had to kill the dragon and another draconic skeleton it was linked to at the same time to permanently defeat it. After a part of the dragon's lair collapsed, Hask was trapped under the rubble. In a delirious state, he did not want to give the Hand to his fellow group member Tania Cayce, who did know how to kill the dragon. Tania gave Hask a sleeping potion and took the sword, apparently slaying the dragon with it.
Hask survived the battle with the dragon, but of his men, only one soldier and Boom did too. The Hand of Righteous Retribution had disappeared in the chaos.
