General
Evard Cordwyn is an Andoran mercenary that Elayne hires to defend Caemlyn. He is tall and square jawed and wears a ruby in his left ear (KoD, Ch. 16). During a meeting, Elayne feels that he seems a little drunk and is slurring his words (KoD, Ch. 16).
Timeline
- During the siege of Caemlyn, Elayne meets with Cordwyn, Hafeen Bakuvun, and Aldred Gomaisen in the Blue reception room. She thinks that Reene Harfor probably chose that room to insult them (KoD, Ch. 16).
- The three ask for and are refused compensation for their losses (KoD, Ch. 16).
- He fondles a maid during the interview and is told if it happens again, he will be put out of the city without sword, horse or boots (KoD, Ch. 16).
- He dies during the assault on Caemlyn. He must have changed sides as Elayne thinks it is only his death that prevented him going to the gallows (KoD, Ch. 35).
