Sandima (Japanese: サンディマ Sandima) was a dark priest of the Loptr Church, entrusted by Archbishop Manfroy with executing the cult's will in Verdane and with capturing Deirdre.
Biography
Unaware of his true allegiance, Verdane's King Batu appointed Sandima as his advisor shortly prior to Grann 757. Sandima quickly gained influence over Batu and his elder two sons, Munnir and Cimbaeth, though the youngest son Jamke remained skeptical of him, and easily commanded the and three the army of Verdane into performing his bidding.[1] During this time, Sandima led an effort to find Deirdre, Cigyun's daughter, and capture her for use in Manfroy's schemes to revive Loptous, though without success.[2]
In Grann 757, Sandima falsely informed Batu that Grannvale intended to launch an invasion of Verdane, prompting Batu to launch his own invasion first to protect Verdane, taking advantage of Grannvale's lack of defense in light of the war with Isaach. This invasion backfired, however, with the intervention of Sigurd and Quan, and even as their forces closed in on the Verdane capital, Sandima defied Jamke's attempts to sway his father and ordered him to fight back. Jamke's words still reached Batu, who for the first time questioned Sandima's honesty, for which Sandima killed him and seized control of the Verdane army. He was unable to defeat Sigurd's army in battle and was slain.
