General Phylo Dendroba In a plot to gain direct influence over the throne by capturing the next King at birth, several powerful witches cast a spell to kidnap the destined baby. But the spell proved flawed - unbeknownst to the witches, the baby they had kidnapped was not to be the eventual ruler. And due to the spell’s mishap, Dendrobra was born with a hideous frog-like deformity. Regardless, General Phyllo Dendrobra was to be groomed to be a King, loyal to the witches. Despite his hideous appearance, Dendrobra excelled in great strength, prowess, intelligence, and ability to command in battle, even in the witches’ black arts. Then it was discovered there had been a second child. The witches had assumed a male child would rule. In fact, it was to be Dendrobra’s twin sister, a peasant girl named Cinderella, who would become a princess, and eventually the destined queen ruler. The witches’ promise to Dendroba was suddenly abandoned in favor of a new plan to corrupt Cinderella. Despite their betrayal, Dendrobra remained faithful to the witches, and when their plan to influence Cinderella succeeded, General Dendroba was brought in to command the Queen’s Army. Still, it was a far cry from the promise to become King. General, or Lord Dendroba, excels loyally in his duty, though he despises those under his command and secretly resents the witches for their revocation, as well as the inexperienced Queen Cinderella. Now Lord Dendroba and his army have been charged to find and destroy a dwarven resistance army and capture their leader, General Snow White. Lord Dendroba has another mission as well. The Queen has secretly ordered him to find the location of the mythical lost ruins of “An End World”- an ancient temple that houses a portal to the legendary magical realm called “Wonderland.” |

| AUTHOR NOTE: Dendroba started out as a very minor character, but as more scenes were written, it gave me an opportunity to explore what was becoming a very emotionally complex character- struggling with many internal demons. I began to look forward to writing more scenes with him, as it was a chance for me to visit with such an interesting character! | |
