Andrei Isegarovich Pronin was the founder and original leader of the Proninist Party. He led a successful campaign in Northern Remon and conquered Scundia and many parts of Maar Sul in 1016 AE. A year later he was lured into a trap by King Gerard Aurelac and was captured in the Second Battle of Maar Sul. He was assassinated in his cell by the mysterious Wolfsbane, and his death led the Party to ally with other factions, which gave rise to the Crimson Coalition.
