Roi Xordo

Roi Xordo (died 1437) was a Galician hidalgo from the lands of the House of Andrade, by tradition a native of Ferrol or A Coruña. In 1431 he led the Irmandade Fusquenlla, or Mad Brotherhood, in revolt against the harsh lord Nuno Freire de Andrade, called the Evil One.

Rising between Pontedeume and Betanzos, his followers took the castle of Moeche and attacked other strongholds as far as Santiago de Compostela, in the first of the Irmandiño revolts. The brotherhood was defeated at Pontedeume in 1437, where Roi Xordo was killed.
