| ~ Fallow |
Fallow is the main antagonist in Return to Del of Deltora Quest and therefore the final villain of the first series and the secondary antagonist in the anime. He was an Grade 3 Ol with Prandine's own form, and one of the most loyal servants of the Shadow Lord.
In the anime version of Deltora Quest, he was voiced by Stewart Burdett who also voiced Prandine.
Biography[]
When the Shadow Lord took over Deltora, he made his personal advisor, Fallow, Governor of Deltora, though outside of Del, his power and influence was limited. Fallow lived in the Palace of Del, where he talked to the Shadow Lord using the Crystal, a magical table used like a crystal ball.
Fallow in the form of Prandine.
Fallow was addicted to a magical drug called Lumun. a reward the Shadow Lord granted him, however the Shadow Lord threatens to take it away if Fallow does not buckle down in finding the heir of Deltora as well as the traitors.
Fallow was the one who posted the punishment for Lief's allies, although it is normally a Grey Guard who does this but since it was a special situation, Fallow was granted the honor, but was driven back by Lief using the Belt of Deltora.
Fallow was killed by having a cone of white flaming liquid fall dousing him in the burning substance but not before killing King Endon. Fallow died in the battle against Lief ad his friends at the Palace of Del.
Fallow appears in the anime. He was also tied to several key points in the anime that his book counterpart never dealt with. Notable examples are sending the sorcerer Oacus after the companions and distracting Dain long enough for Lief to kill him with the Belt.
Fallow lead the Shadow Lord's forces against the Resistance in the final battle for Deltora. He fought with Barda briefly, who confused him for Prandine, and was defeated. He then attacked Lief and was defeated again, but escaped onto the back of one of the Ak-Baba. Lief followed after him, and the two fought in the air, Fallow growing wings through his shapeshifting abilities. During the battle he grabbed hold of the Belt of Deltora. It destroyed him, but the gems are separated from the belt again.
Appearance[]
Fallow takes the form of Prandine, though his robes are different as the colours are red and black. His hat is identical to Prandine's hat, but it's red, and still has a green gem. He wears a green coat. He also has green nails like Prandine.
Abilities[]
- Fallow, as a Grade 3 Ol, was capable of shapeshifting into any form he desired and retaining that form for as long as he wanted.
- In the anime He can turn his nails into blades, morph his hand into a sword, and grow wings.
Weaknesses[]
- Grade 1 Ols and Grade 2 Ols can be killed by stabbing them through the heart, which is located on the right-hand side; given the evidence so far, Grade 3 Ols might not be able to be killed in this manner, but Fallow was able to die when he grasped at one of the cones that provided light for the platform, tipping it towards himself.

Trivia[]
- Prandine and Fallow's hats and outfits are almost similar to Judge Frollo and Jafar's.
- In the anime, Fallow seemed to be afraid of the Shadow Lord and the sorceress Thaegan, as he often cowered from her every time she was revived. But, he did not fear the sorcerer Oacus however, because Oacus was a fellow servant of the Shadow Lord and Thaegan was an ally of the Shadow Lord.
