Biography
Brude was a member of a druid circle, in which they foresaw a falling star from the constellation Draco. Brude then summoned the Painted Tribe and all of the druids were slaughtered with the exception of Lorne, a druid apprentice who managed to escape while Brude then declared war on the southern kingdoms beyond Hadrian's wall. Later, the druid encountered the dragon Drago, and cast a slavery spell on him, which prevented Drago from being able to breath fire and he and the Painted Tribe made off with the dragon eggs that Drago brought with him to Earth.

Brude then later captured Gareth when he snuck into his camp and had him tied to a tree and then having his arms set on fire. However, when Brude discovered that Gareth and Drago, whom he had cursed, were bonded he immediately had the fires put out. Intrigued by their bonding, based on the prediction of the wizard Merlin, he left Gareth bounded to the tree, but he managed to escape thanks to Drago and they managed to take back the dragon eggs.

Later, when Lorne accidentally dropped one of the eggs which caused it to explode, the column of smoke from the explosion got Brude's attention and he immediately knew where they are. The spell whom Brude casted on Drago was later revealed to be the Sorcerer's curse which would allow Brude to have full control of Drago when a full moon rises in three days time. When Drago was freed from the curse due to Gareth's valor, Brude was able to recast the spell again, causing Drago to be in a ghost-like form once again. Later, he and the Painted Tribe were met by the dragon, after he had said goodbye to Gareth. That night, Brude led his army, along with Drago, who is now under the druid's control, to invade Hadrian's Wall.

On Brude's orders, Drago burns down the gate, and Brude and the Painted Tribe charged into the other side of the wall. During the siege, Brude dueled with Rhonu, who managed to slay him, thus ending his threat for good.
