Eric Morello Redmond
"Birdie! You brought me new toys to play with! I can't wait to break them over and over for all eternity."
(a.k.a. The Hangedman)
Eric was once an average nobleman, though when his love was married off to a family in higher standing his life began to fall apart. He attempted to elope with her but to his horror discovered that she had found love with her husband and didn't want to leave him. In a fit of rage Redmond killed them both, and was shortly after captured, tried, and executed by hanging. His body was later recovered by his family, who fed it to a strange black mirror. The process amplified all his worst traits and turned him into a twisted undead version of his former self called a Dark Reflection. He became a notorious assassin after that and garnered a reputation for massive collateral damage as well as being unkillable. Only the ring of thick purple and black bruising and scarring around his neck betrayed his true identity, though through the years he faded into myth.
The party encountered him with Kormiggon and a few others at the Seven Veils masquerade. He offered to kill the party and seemed disappointed by Kormiggon’s refusal, though he didn’t argue against it. Also seen in the sewers below Sandpoint. He fought with a strange ability to create multiple copies of himself and survived far more than a normal human. The battle ended when he suddenly announced that he had enjoyed playing with the party, and walked away. He was eventually hunted down and killed by the party along with Lady Bloodraven, his former student, inside his cursed mirror. He was completely destroyed along with the mirror.
