André Vales, as Knight of the White Bear in 1675 AN.

André Vales (1635 - ...) was an explorer and self-styled conquistador. He was instrumental in the establishment of the Duchy of Leylstadt, as he undertook four expeditions - the so-called Valesian Expedition - between 1664 and 1674 AN to what later became the Duchy. Vales is of Aldurian and Batavian descent, and received Leylstadter citizenship. His actions gave him a sort of saintly status within the local religious community and he was soon seen as patron saint of adventurers, scientists and opportunists.
