Veran Thugenheim is a senior commander of the Order of the Knights Panther, and one of Graf Boris Todbringer’s closest and dearest friends.[1a]
Graf Boris values Vieran for his humble common sense, for whilst he possesses deep knowledge of Middenheim’s governance, he also champions the importance of qualified experts and advisory councils. Vieran secretly has ambitions for his son Vorn Thugenheim, standard bearer of the White Wolves, to not only follow but surpass him. To this end he has tutored Vorn in all intricacies of secular power, but has also seen him initiated into the Order of the White Wolf.[1a]
