| Former pupil of [[Ethric]]. Former best friend of [[Jeddite]]. Teacher of [[Vidomina]]. Sandro (or self-identified as '''Sandro the Great''') is a powerful lich with plans to take over the world. He is the main and most important character of [[Shadow of Death]].
| | Sandro (or self-identified as ''Sandro the Great'') has been in each of the four Heroes of Might and Magic games, his picture even donned one side of the Heroes I's box. |
|
| |
|
| In [[Shadow of Death]], Sandro began his plans to take over the world by disguising himself as a wizard and hiring/tricking several heroes into recovering artifacts for him:

| * {{Hn|Terek|0=}} (fail) / {{Hn|Gem (Sorceress)|0=}} (success) - {{An|Cloak of the Undead King}}
| | [[List of heroes]]<br> |
| * {{Hn|Crag Hack|0=}} (success) - {{An|Armor of the Damned}}
| | [[List of heroes (HotA)]] |
| * {{Hn|Tyranell|image=Orrin|0=}} (fail) - {{An|Statue of Legion}}
| |
| | |
| Once he has the [[Cloak of the Undead King]] and the [[Armor of the Damned]], he enacts the second phase of his plan. He reveals himself as a necromancer, allies with {{Hn|Finneas|0=}} and takes on {{Hn|Vidomina|0=}} as an apprentice. He fights his way to [[Deyja]] where he and [[Finneas]] are welcomed into the king's inner circle. In short order, Sandro disposes of the reigning king and installs Finneas as a puppet.
| |
| | |
| Sandro then assassinates several border lords ([[Lord Fayette]] and [[Lord Falorel]]) and begins using the armies of Deyja and the power of his artifacts to prepare for an invasion of [[Erathia]] and [[AvLee]]. He is opposed, however, by four heroes: {{Hn|Gelu|0=}}, {{Hn|Gem|0=}}, {{Hn|Yog|0=}} and {{Hn|Crag Hack|0=}}. These heroes assemble the {{An|Angelic Alliance}} and, using it, manage to defeat Sandro and recover the [[Cloak of the Undead King]] and the [[Armor of the Damned]] from him. They disperse the components of these artifacts throughout [[Antagarich]] to end their corrupting influence.
| |
| | |
| Thwarted, but still dreaming of world conquest, Sandro hatches another plan. He smuggles poison to {{Hn|Lord Haart|0=}} with which he assassinates [[King Nicolas Gryphonheart|King Gryphonheart]] of [[Erathia]]. He also makes alliances with [[Nighon]] and [[Eeofol]]. He funds the [[dungeon overlords]]' construction of a tunnel into the heart of Erathia and recovers the {{An|Eversmoking Ring of Sulfur}} for the devils to ensure the support of their armies. As one of the last steps to prepare for the invasion, [[Finneas]] secretly tasks Sandro with removing an over-ambitious Deyjan lord, [[Lord Smedth]]. Once Sandro does, Finneas reveals this as his plan for getting rid of Sandro and imprisons him for assaulting an innocent lord. Setting the stage for [[Restoration of Erathia]], Finneas, the necromancers, the [[dungeon overlords]] and the devils invade Erathia.
| |
| | |
| In [[Season of Harvest]], Sandro is released from prison to aid in the assault on [[Erathia]].

| {{user commentary|
| |
| Sandro is similar to a [[Warlock]] [[Malekith]], but necromancer have different use than a warlock. Most important spells for necromancers are focused on improving durability like [[stone skin]], [[slow]]ing enemies and resurrecting undead armies ([[animate dead]]). None of them are a destructive spells. Even with high spellpower and sorcery speciallist, undead-specific spells do very little damage. Necromancers simply do not have much time to cast destructive spells.
