“"The line between victory and defeat is drawn by the swift and trod by the dead."
Born in Coldhearth, a destitute hamlet deep within Gyr Abania, Raubahn Aldynn joined the armed forces of his native Ala Mhigo, and did much to defend his nation's borders from Garlean attack. When the Highlander was twenty-five, however, his nation fell. Raubahn escaped with little more than his life, and spent two years as a vagabond before coming to Ul'dah. There, he was mistaken for an imperial spy, and immediately imprisoned.For many years thereafter, Raubahn fought as a gladiator upon the bloodsands of the Coliseum. Wielding the ancient bladedancing techniques of Gyr Abania, he won his freedom, the people's love, and a popular title—the "Bull of Ala Mhigo." By the time of his thirty-seventh nameday, he purchased the Coliseum itself, and by doing so earned himself a place amongst the Syndicate. Now forty-four years of age, some wonder if his hardest battles lie ahead of him as the only member loyal to the sultanate. Tizona: The Tizona is a sword made of two cursed blades, and was taken from the hands of a former rival in the Coliseum. With a name that roughly translates to "sword of flame," its accursed magicks are so powerful that the weapon will set ablaze all who cannot control it.

Additional Information
Raubahn Aldynn, also called Flame General Aldynn, is a Highlander Hyur from Ala Mhigo who founded the Immortal Flames of Ul'dah and served as its first Flame General.
Born in the village of Coldhearth in the Peaks of Gyr Abania, Raubahn joined the armed forces of his homeland and helped defend his nation's borders from the Garlean Empire. After his nation fell, a twenty-five year old Raubahn escaped with little more than his life, and spent two years as a vagabond before coming to Thanalan. Mistaken for an imperial spy, he was imprisoned by the Brass Blades. [1]
For many years, Raubahn fought as a gladiator upon the bloodsands of the Coliseum. Wielding the ancient bladedancing techniques of Gyr Abania, he won his freedom, the people's love, and a popular title—the "Bull of Ala Mhigo." In 1570, he purchased the Coliseum and earned himself a place among the Syndicate, the wealthiest patrons of Ul'dah. [1]
Because she spared his life in a rigged gladiatorial bout in 1565, Raubahn is unerringly loyal to Nanamo Ul Namo, and has done much to ensure the Royalists hold power in the city-state. [1]
