Name: Dolenus

Belongings: Daggers, light leather, enough supplies for the others

Survivors (anyone that's not an important character): 500 or so

Immediate backstory: After the disastrous war, the forces of Sauron by chance stumbled upon the Sand Elven cities while pillaging the entire of Harad. By now the cities had served their purpose well, for Dolenus feared for his people and ordered them to leave the cities. Which would have worked if in order:

First city. An elf sneezed during their passage through Gondor. Ouch.

Second city: Whoops. Tripped and landed on a cactus. YOUCH and the orcs know where we are.

Third city: Why is it that orcs can smell us? We tried to sneak past them on the pretense of being orcs and returning to Mordor for further orders. Then some sharp-nosed goblin sniffed us out.

Fourth city: Sand is like snow when if comes to tracks. Good thing we had elves brushing out the tracks! Not good that nobody mentioned that there are dunes and the like in the desert. There was a straight sand path all the way to the elves.

And so on.

All in all, only 1 city survived with the lookout King Dolenus and being able to hide in caves all the time. And picking a lucky route with very little orcs.
