== Plot Summary ==
Captain [[Ca-Rell]] is warned about a group of [[Porcs]] in a cave who are going to attack the town of [[Danevur]], so Ca-Rell and the Theta Squad go to kill the Porcs. After several days of defending the town [[Templeton Barringster VII|Templeton]]'s younger brother [[Phineas Barringster|Phineas]] wants to help the group, but when Templeton refuses Phineas complains about how he doesn't ever get to go on any adventures and runs away. As Templeton chases after his brother, he comes across the rest of the crew at the town's bar. [[Elmar]] and [[DeNada]] can't be bothered to help fight the Porcs without a pay raise from Captain Ca-Rell. The party learns from another elf that Phineas was seen fleeing towards a forest that Elmar had spawned a [[Fire Spirit]] in the day before, Elmar claiming that he was "cold".

At the forest they encounter the Fire Spirit being restrained by two [[Elf|Elves]] and their manager, and they decide to kill it. The spirit is released and begins to attack the party. DeNada is uncooperative, relaxing in a tent and sending [[Earthlord|Earth Elementals]] to retrieve beer and pissa, and knock an Elf ally unconscious. The spirit starts to pose a significant challenge to the party after Elmar accidentally decapitates the second Elf, [[Fire Spirit#Mini Fire Spirit|Mini Fire Spirits]] begin spawning continuously, and fire meteors pummel the party. During the fight Elmar receives a Winter Coat, and he and Ca-Rell deal a large amount of damage to the main Fire Spirit. DeNada begins to help attack the spirit, though knocking out the Elf manager in the process. At low stamina, Templeton takes cover behind a bridge across [[Emerald Lake]] and pushes a hiding [[Goblin]] into the water. The party barely survives as the Fire Spirit is defeated and the mini spirits flee.

DeNada's Earthlords return with the food, but disintegrate and spill it. Ca-Rell attempts to wake up the surviving Elf, but ends up slapping him in the balls. She assigns ranks to the others, and they proceed to the bridge, where they are met by the previous Goblin named [[Justin]]. Justin is promptly beat up by the party, but the tables turn as he throws a smoke bomb and steals various items from them, escaping onto rocks on the lake. Elmar knocks out Justin in the water and retrieves most of their treasure, as the [[Whisper Snake]] arises from the lake. It whispers in Templeton's ear and controls his mind, forcing him to attack his teammates. The others then notice the snake's presence and eventually figure out its ability. Meanwhile, Ca-Rell finds a powerful weapon called Lieutenant Surge in the water. DeNada summons a dirty [[Frost Elemental]] he names Ice Lord to cool the manager Elf's balls, and the chilly Elmar also rests on his balls, but the manager is still too weak to aid in battle. Alhough the Whisper Snake controls other party members and begins to use Hydropump, it is ultimately forced to retreat beneath the lake. Immediately afterwards, five Goblin reinforcements arrive on the bridge, but are swiftly and relentlessly killed by the party.

The party meets up with [[Dave]], the sun cleric serving under [[Gwyneth Sunsword]], and other [[Spellblade|Spellblades]] who are escorting a [[Kobold]] prisoner to the [[Silver Mine Mountains]]. As Dave and the party finish their conversation, [[Chimera]] the prisoner breaks free of the carriage. Ca-Rell knows Chimera has a powerful array of abilities and is very strong. Ca-Rell and Elmar move up to him to fight, while DeNada and Templeton send in a line of Earthlords and [[Air_Sprites|Air Sprites]] from farther back. While attempting to flee, Chimera is able to wipe out all of the [[Spellblade|Spellblades]] and their reinforcements, but he is ultimately defeated by Dave and the party. Dave reveals that he saw a child that looked like Phineas run into the adjacent cave. Chimera is locked up again, and Dave and his company head along their path, as the party enter the cave.

Three Porcs are seen standing by a pool of purple vomit, which is used to create new Porcs. Ca-Rell attempts diplomacy and asks to meet with the Porc leader, [[Porbo]], claiming to offer "tribute" in the form of treasure. They are led into the cave, and along the way, almost all the cave's Porcs follow along to see the tribute. They pass by a room containing Phineas, but are too busy devising a plan to take action. Upon reaching Porbo's lair, they party learns that "tribute" meant sacrificing themselves to Porbo. Ca-Rell manages to convince Porbo to a 5-on-5 battle to become leader of the Porcs. Porbo summons two [[Skelephelk]] and two spellcasters, and he mounts a Skelephelk. The Skelephelk are discovered to be immune to damage, and start ramming the party, destroying Ice Lord. They also pick up party members onto their backs, disabling their spells. DeNada casts Blankets of Darkness at the lair's entrance, breaking the terms of the battle and aggravating the Porcs, but the blankets do prevent reinforcements from arriving. Taking damage from the party, Porbo is enraged, grows in size, and starts eating Porcs to gain stamina. However, Porbo is knocked unconscious soon after, and the remaining Porcs become passive.

DeNada traps Porbo in his Bewitching Mirror, and the Porcs now treat Ca-Rell as their new leader. Phineas runs in, having killed multiple Porcs and Skelephelks, and asks to join Theta Squad. Templeton is upset and annoyed to be shown up by his little brother. Ca-Rell resigns from the squad to lead the Porcs and keep them from attacking Danevur, making Elmar the new captain and leaving a position open for Phineas. DeNada throws the Bewitching Mirror over his shoulder as Theta Squad leaves the cave, the consequence left unknown.

'''DeNada''' (/dɛnədə/) is a male [[Elf#Noble Born|Noble Born]] [[Elf]] [[Cabalist]] played by [[Coestar]] that will appears in the [[Porc Hunters]] Campaign. He is a member of [[Theta Squad]] and is under the command of [[Ca-Rell|Captain Ca-Rell]] and fights along side [[Templeton Barringster]] and [[Elmar]] and is charged with taking care of a hoard of [[Porc|Porcs]].

__TOC__

== Characteristics ==

=== Personality ===
DeNada is very grumpy and antisocial. He has no desire to fulfill any of his duties and refuses to listen to command, stating he did not want to join the military. When asked to perform a task, he will profoundly refuse, unless tempted with the promise of Treasure or pay raises. Even then he considers showing up to be enough, preferring to spend his time lazing about. His lazy personality even extends so far as to use Earth Elementals as butlers to fetch beer and [[pissa]], while he loafs around in a tent.

He goes along best with [[Elmar]], since his easy-going personality suits him fine, while he often ignores [[Ca-Rell|Captain Ca-Rell's]] commands, viewing them as a drag, and holds no respect for her. DeNada and [[Templeton Barringster |Templeton]] do not go along well, due to DeNada's constant annoyance at his pompous attitude.

Over the course of the mission, DeNada starts to gain more respect for his captain and starts to participate more in fights. The largest turning point was when Ca-Rell uses Chivalry to take a huge hit for DeNada that would've probably killed him, saving his life. After this he truly becomes a part of the team, even taking part in strategy talks and at one point suggesting the team turns around, concerned with not only his, but all of their safety. His changed ways become very apparent at the Porbo fight, where he, rammed into a wall by a [[Skelephelk]], preferred to spent time setting up Blankets of Darkness to prevent further reinforcements rather than saving his own life.

His preferred method of attacking has not changed over the course of the adventure however, he mostly prefers to distance himself from the fight, attacking with long-distance moves and sending in Frost Elementals or Earthlords for close-combat fighting.

== History ==

=== Porc Hunters ===
''The history of DeNada during the Porc Hunters Campaign is viewable [[Porc Hunters#Plot Summary|here]].''

== Relationships ==

=== [[Ca-Rell]] ===
In the beginning their relationship was rocky at best. He had no respect for her as Captain of the team, refused to listen to her orders, and even when bribed with promised of Treasures and pay raises loafed about in fights, mostly doing nothing. This slowly changes over the course of the mission, with him starting to put more faith in his captain, and he opens up completely after she saved her life. Afterwards they become good friends, with him trusting her and putting more effort into team fights, earning a promotion. He was sad when she left the team.

=== [[Elmar]] ===
DeNada and Elmar go along well. His lazy attitude meshes well with Elmar, and they often share some drinks at the bar. Elmar would be considered his best bud. He was happy when he was made team leader after Ca-Rell's resignation, stating that 'this is gonna be fun'.

=== [[Templeton Barringster VII]] ===
DeNada and Templeton have a negative relationship. DeNada is irritated by his elitist attitude and holds him in low regard.

=== [[Phineas Barringster]] ===
DeNada did not care about Phineas' life at all and would've rather spend his time at the bar drinking than joining the rescue mission. It is not known how he views Phineas after his change of heart, since the two were not seen interacting after this point.

=== [[Call Earthlord|Earthlords]] ===
DeNada has no sympathy for his Earthlords, not even viewing them as living creatures, calling them 'Shitlords'. He considers them glorified butlers and send huge packs of them to fight and die in battle in his place.

=== [[Summon Frost Elemental|Frost Elemental]] ===
Contrary to the Earthlords, DeNada had much love for his Ice Elemental, giving it a name (Private Ice Lord) and keeping it around at any time. He took all damage for the Ice Elemental to keep it alive, until the final battle when taking the hit could have meant death. He was very sad to let him go.

== Notable Traits & Abilities ==
*Good swimmer
*Created his own variation of Call Earthlord using feces instead of earth, named Summon Shitlord

==Trivia==
* His name is part of recurring joke. All of Coestar's characters are named around the phrase "Thank You". His character in [[The Nuren Campaign]] was named [[Thanks]], his character in [[Roamin's Band of Thieves]] was named [[Gracias]], the Spanish word for thanks, and DeNada is based on De nada, the Spanish or Portuguese word for ''You are welcome''.
