Marigold
It was terrifying, m'lord. That mage's head just exploded. I'm telling you, it was the one with the orange hair and that crazy eye. She gives me the shivers, she does.
Backstory
Click to ExpandMarigold's background is unknown, though it is speculated she was a victim of a terrible crime and that spurred her crusade as an instrument of vengeance. The enigmatic artificer arrived in Selgaunt apparently with the intent to enact her own peculiar brand of justice. Armed with a rifle and a magical eye, she set about punishing those who offended her own peculiar take on justice, without mercy or hesitation.
Physical Appearance
Marigold is a moon elf with orange hair as bright as flame and her right eye has mechanical looking golden iris. She wears functional leathers covered with pouches and tools, as well as bandoliers with extra ammunition for her rifle.
Equipment
As a gunsmith, Marigold is never far from her thunder cannon. The scoped weapon is nearly silent when it fires, though the concussion from its passing can be felt even if she misses. Her eye is an Eye of Ersatz that has been magically modified to enhance her targeting capabilities.
Personality
Marigold is straightforward, lacking subtlety or guile. She sees the world as a stark black and white; one is either guilty, or innocent, with no shades in between. While she prefers to work alone, she is pragmatic enough to enlist the aid of people she deems reliable on occasion.
While her sense of justice is stark, the punishments are more nuanced. Sometimes it is as simple as a bullet to the head. On other occasions, she may carry out an elaborate heist to punish a rich noble who ruins the fortunes of an innocent merchant. Whatever she does, she seeks to precisely balance the scales in everything she does.
Goals & Motivations
Marigold does not appear to have any over arching goal beyond bringing those she deems as guilty to justice. Once she decides a person is deserving of her attention, she will not stop until she is satisfied.
History
Marigold was a part of the Heist Crew and functioned as their prime magic user and ranged support. At the end of the Heist, Grishnak revealed himself and attempted to kill the party. Ice immediately switched sides, and was ordered to attack Marigold. Marigold, managed to evade her attacks long enough to group up with the surviving members and teleport away.
She swore revenge at that time and parted company with her companions in order to hunt the monk down. She finally tracked her to the Sultan's tournament in the City of Brass on 8/18/1497. Mittens & Shump Thunderstruck happened to also be in the city at the time. She enlisted their aid, and they waited in the crowd, systematically removing mages planted by the Cult of Elemental Evil to interfere in Ice's contest with the Battleborn. Just as Ice was about to teleport to safety, Marigold shot Ice through the throat, killing her.
