He has a long mane of thin black hair, his crimson armour contrasting with his pale complexion. [1]
History
He had been feeding on the peopel of a woodcutters village in the Forest of Chalon when they begged a passing Questing Knight to save them from the Red Knight of Chalon Sir Lambert de Lillaz found him near sunset and challenged him, but Caleb declined to fight, saying he was sated and that Lambert had no hope of defeating him. [1]
Unperturbed, Lambert charged him, impaling the red knight with his lance with a mighty blow - but the vampire merely removed the broken lance and told him to leave as this was not a combat he could win. Drawing his sword, Lambert attacked again but he was unhorsed and flung against a tree in a moment. But rather than killing him, Caleb told him to return to the village and heal before continuing on his quest - once he had done so, Lambert would perhaps provide him with a more interesting opponent. In recognition of his bravery however, Caleb pledged not to feed on the villagers and leave the area. [1]
