Supporting Cast
  • Benneth Atrellion
    Benneth Atrellion, raised in Lankhmar by his renowned portraitist father, Bexley Atrellion, and Marius Tidewater, grew up in a world of privilege and art, deeply influenced by his father's celebrated work. His life transformed after witnessing a wizard's duel, leading him to apprentice under Merreck the Red in wizardry, blending his artistic heritage with newfound magical skills. Completing his training, Benneth received a symbolic "Coat of the Wyld Thistle" from Merreck, marking his transition into a skilled mage and honoring the bond formed through his journey.
  • High Priestess Diana Masters
    Diana Masters, a revered priestess at the Temple of Tyr in Lankhmar, is also the beloved romantic partner of Keesha Knight. Born to renowned jewel crafters, her parents run a well-known shop in Kvarch Nar. Diana's allure lies not just in her striking beauty but also in her sharp intellect, and she is as kind-hearted as she is affluent.
  • Ikiri Kcarm
    Ikiri's life in Kokgnab was disrupted at a young age when she was abandoned by her mother and lost her father at sea, leading to a challenging upbringing in an orphanage. Determined to make a difference, she apprenticed at the Tailor's Guild and was driven to investigate the disappearance of her fellow orphans, discovering the existence of the "Order of the Ghostslayer," a group of Blood Hunters. After enduring a transformative and grueling ritual, Ikiri's vision quest revealed her destiny to fight against dark forces, marking the beginning of her journey as a member of the Order and a protector against evil.
  • John Klegg
    John Klegg, commonly known as "Klegg," hails from Karja Tal and is the uncle of Jack Klegg, who has recently been kidnapped. This abduction has left Klegg deeply distressed and virtually incapacitated in dealing with the crisis. Adding to the complexity, Klegg has fallen under the scrutiny of the Heretic, who suspects him of intentionally tampering with a cheese platter sent to them. This suspicion arose after it was discovered that the cheese was laced with a drug, which induced sleep and resulted in the Heretic waking up in a prison. The drug's sedative effects were unmistakable, further fueling doubts about Klegg's involvement and intentions.
  • Keesha Knight
    As deadly as she is beautiful, the once infamous Keesha Knight has joined the Order of Ix working for the side of good (for once).
  • Lord Pranax
    Lord Pranax, an archaeologist, harbors an intense passion for unearthing artifacts, backed by substantial financial resources to support their discovery and recovery. Despite his credentials as a refined scholar, his professional achievements are often eclipsed by his misogynistic and drunken behavior. The true intentions behind Lord Pranax's pursuits are shrouded in ambiguity, leaving many to wonder whether they stem from nefarious purposes or are merely a reflection of his self-absorbed, unseemly character.
Within the past few years, the King of Lankhmar has been actively involved with and funding an effort to bring forth Black Dragons into Nehwon from another land. Our adventurers, known collectively as "The Heretic" have joined forces with an organization known as "The Order of Ix" which is simultaneously trying to prevent this effort and instead, secure a lair for Platinum Dragons.
