:Ulgrim the Unpleasant tells you, "I knew Kurth was going to go on over to the other side. The man was loyal as a dog, but a starved dog will turn feral eventually. I guess Elysa never had any pets." <ref>2005/12 - [[Through Sacrifice, Strength]] - [[Through Sacrifice, Strength#Ulgrim Rumors|Ulgrim Rumors]]</ref>
* See also [[Commander Jared Kurth]] for his current form.

Commander Jared Kurth played a major role during the [[The War of Blood and Shadow]] Story Arc. 
Originally, Commander Jared Kurth was the Commander of the Garrison at [[Fort Tethana]], which was separated from the main forces by the Renegades.<ref>2006/02 - [[A Change in Tactics]] - [[Tumerok Record Book]]</ref> He could be found (as a NPC) fighting against the renegade forces in the [[Renegade Incursion]]. Already at that time, it was clear that the defenders of Fort Tethana were not happy with the amount of support they got from [[Elysa Strathelar]], and did not seem unwilling to accept the help of the Viamontians.<ref>2005/08 - [[Friend and Foe]] - [[Fort Tethana Tug of War#Notes]]</ref> 
Later it turned out, the Queen did try to send enforcements, but they were blocked by the Viamontians on the access to the Dires from the Northern Landbridge<ref> 2006/02 - [[A Change in Tactics]] - [[Lord Tyrell Marsan#Lore&Dialog]]</ref><ref>2006/03 - [[Down Twisting Paths]] - [[Plateau Village Transit#Lore&Dialog]]</ref> and the army was destroyed on the [[Shadow March]].<ref>2006/03 - [[Down Twisting Paths]] - [[Lord Marsan's Log Book]]</ref> 

Jared Kurth got an unusual offer during the [[Friend and Foe]] event. <ref>2005/08 - [[Friend and Foe]] - [[Announcements - 2005/08 - Friend and Foe#Teaser|Teaser]]</ref> This offer came from the Viamontians lead by [[Varicci di Corcosi II|King Varicci]].<ref>2005/08 - [[Friend and Foe]] - [[Fort Tethana Tug of War#Lore & Dialog]]</ref> <ref> 2005/08 - [[Friend and Foe]] - [[Tethana's Response]]</ref> <ref>2005/08 - [[Friend and Foe]] - [[Tethana's Price]]</ref> <ref>2005/08 - [[Friend and Foe]] - [[The Queen's Missive]])</ref> 

During the [[Ashes and Dust]] event, Kurth mysteriously disappeared <ref>2005/12 - [[Ashes and Dust]] - [[Ashes and Dust#Town Crier Rumors|Town Crier Rumors]]</ref> and was replaced by [[Arwyth Margyle]] in the [[Renegade Incursion]]. Dissatisfied with the support he got from Queen Elysa, he took up the offer of [[Count Dardante]] and the viamontian [[Varicci di Corcosi II|King Varicci]] to take up the command of his army, and a special sword, [[Heartbreaker]], was forged for him out of [[Shade Iron|Shade Iron Ore]].<ref>2005/11 - [[Ashes and Dust]] - [[Announcements - 2005/11 - Ashes and Dust#Teaser]]</ref> <ref>2006/02 - [[A Change in Tactics]] - [[Shade Iron#Lore&Dialog]]</ref>He was turned into a raving [[Viamontian Knight]] without a will of his own by [[Count Dardante]].<ref>2005/12 - [[Through Sacrifice, Strength]] - [[Through Sacrifice, Strength#Ulgrim Rumors|Ulgrim Rumors]]</ref> <ref>2005/11 - [[Ashes and Dust]] - Inscription on [[Shard of Commander Kurth's Armor]] </ref> 

He commanded the raid on [[Glenden Wood]] from his [[Commander's Quarters]] in [[North Glenden Prison]] and lured [[Antius Blackmoor]] into a trap <ref>2005/12 - [[Ashes and Dust]] - [[Orders to the Garrison]]</ref> during the [[Ashes and Dust]] Live Event. During the following fight, Antius was killed, the sword Heartbreaker was broken, and Kurth was killed by the players recruited by Antius. <ref name = "Kurth killing Antius Maggies Report">2005/12 - [[Ashes and Dust]] [http://www.thejackcat.com/AC/Culture/ToD/ashes3.htm#7 Maggie´s Site]</ref>

After being defeated, Commander Kurth, armed with a new weapon, [[Souldrinker]], <ref> 2006/05 - [[The Price of Loyalty]] - [http://www.thejackcat.com/AC/Culture/ToD/price2.htm#10 Updated Ingame Help Files on Maggies Site]</ref>, was again released upon various towns across the land.<ref>2006/05 - [[The Price of Loyalty]] - [[Announcements - 2006/05 - The Price of Loyalty#Letter to the Players |Letter to the Players]]</ref> 

Serving [[Dardante]] and therefore Dardante's Master [[Grael]], he was spotted raiding towns with Grael's forces during the [[Shattering the Dark]] Live Events.<ref>2006/08 [[Shattering the Dark]] - [[Announcements - 2006/08 - Shattering the Dark#Teaser Images|Teaser Images]]</ref>

The experiments with [[Grael]] having gone awry, he can now be found in [[Black Ferah's Vault]], part of the [[Mukkir Aspect of Grael Quest]], weilding his new sword, [[Souldrinker]].

* Many Isparians, including the Queen herself, express being dissatisfied with the support Elysa managed to give Jared Kurth <ref>2005/12 - [[Through Sacrifice, Strength]] - [[Through Sacrifice, Strength#Ulgrim Rumors|Ulgrim Rumors]]</ref> <ref>2005/12 - [[Through Sacrifice, Strength]] - [[Through Sacrifice, Strength#Teaser|Teaser]]</ref>
* Though the sword [[Heartbreaker]] had the Lifestone severance properties, the new sword [[Souldrinker]] does not, probably because of lack of material. <ref>2006/01 - [[Reprisals]] - [[Count Dardante's Notes]]</ref>
