Ambros de Montford

The former Earl Marshall is Ambros de Montford, the younger brother of Airik, the former Duke of Farin. He is therefore the uncle of the current Duke of Farin, Cameron. From his youth, Ambros seemed destined to pursue a military career, and was at the front at the tender age of fourteen when he killed his first man, an assassin sent to kill his commanding officer. This gained him a reputation early on as a person to take notice of. From then on, Ambros was almost constantly at the front, battling the Daravi and making quite some headway thanks to his quickly developing talent for military tactics. When the former Earl Marshall hung up his spurs, Ambros was chosen almost unanimously to be successor, and it is a task that he has taken to with skill and relish. He is said to be chafing a lot under the current truce with the Daravi that he inadvertently brought about by capturing the Daravi Prince.

Despite his lofty titles and stern reputation, Ambros is rumored to be the softer side of his marriage, arranged in SC 294 between himself and a Vandagan bride by the King's well-meaning consort. Since then, Ambros has taken to hunting with a vengeance, visiting the estates of other nobles almost weekly - and, conspicuously, without his Dame.

Shortly after Iolaide le Fontaine's execution for Treason, Ambros left Lithmore and his position as Earl Marshall.
