__NOTOC__ '''Derdriu''' is a [[Cantref]] Hero character encountered in the second part of ''The Banner Saga''. {{UnitSP | class = Cantref | type = Ranged | promoted = yes | portrait = Derdriu.icon.versus.png | armormin = 10 | armormax = 12 | strengthmin = 11 | strengthmax = 13 | willpowermin = 6 | willpowermax = 10 | exertionmin = 2 | exertionmax = 3 | breakmin = 2 | breakmax = 2 | baserank = 5 | freepoints = 0 | movement = 4 | attack = 2-4 | active = Poison Tipped | passive = Free Roam }} ==Background== Derdriu is more cautious and ready to attack than most, usually concerned with betrayal from anyone but her mate, [[Ro'Ech]]. Her family was ambushed and murdered by a previously friendly tribe, leaving her with lifelong mistrust. {| style="float: left" |[[File:icon_poisontipped.png]] |} ==Active Ability: Poison Tipped== The [[Horseborn]] [[Cantref]] uses a javelin tipped with a deadly poison to make sure her enemy doesn't forget her after the initial sting of her attack passes. The ill target becomes unable to secure their own ground and units can move through him/her. Poisons like this are often used against high Strength enemies to wear them down over time or on a large unit that is blocking paths to other areas of the board. The doses do not stack together, but a second dose will serve to refresh the damage over time and keep the target afflicted. '''Rank 1:''' 1 Strength damage per [[Round]], for 3 Rounds '''Rank 2:''' 2 Strength damage per [[Round]], for 3 Rounds '''Rank 3:''' 3 Strength damage per [[Round]], for 3 Rounds {| style="float: left" |[[File:icon_pin.png]] |} ==Active Ability: Pin== * When promoted to Rank 6, Derdriu gains the primary active ability of [[Canary]], Pin. The Horseborn [[Cantref]] spears her target and pins him to the ground, dealing regular [[Strength]] damage and inhibiting [[Movement]]. '''Rank 1:''' Reduces movement by 2 tiles '''Rank 2:''' Reduces movement by 3 tiles '''Rank 3:''' Reduces movement by 4 tiles {| style="float: left" |[[File:icon_freeroam.png]] |} ==Passive Ability: Free Roam== While moving, each [[Willpower]] the Horseborn [[Cantref]] spends allows her to travel 2 tiles instead of 1. ==Joining the Party== Derdriu joins the Skogr caravan in [[Chapter 10]], when the Horseborn are first met near [[Lundar]]. ==Possible Death or Departure== * Failure to stop the conflict between Derdriu and [[Canary]] in the second visit to [[Aberrang]] in [[Chapter 21]] will result in Derdriu's death ==Playstyle== * As ability description mentions, Poison Tipped is especially lethal against high-Armor cumbersome enemy units, e.g. [[Dredge Stoneguard]]s or [[Shieldbanger]]s. ==Trivia== As with [[Scathach]], Derdriu is named after an irish mythological figure.
