Archych
Lord Archych Dureanz
Archych is the nomarch of the Dock Council and owner of the Devil’s Own Shipyard. The calculating lord, a loyal Chelaxian, skirts the legal line in his operations, openly employing the worst sorts of thugs and pushing around his considerable weight at every opportunity. Lady Alidane (and indeed most of the city) suspects the aging Archych as the architect of Goodman Hugen’s doom, pointing to more than 50 years of antagonism between Dureanz and Candren triggered when the latter house supported Andoran after the People’s Revolt of 4669 AR. Whether or not he played a role in the death of the father, he has set his sights firmly on Lady Alidane, and has sworn to Asmodeus himself that he will see her populist movement utterly crushed.
Like nearly all of Absalom’s Chelaxian houses, Dureanz invested heavily in slaving, and their economic fortunes have faded significantly since the abolition of the trade in recent years. This leaves Archych poised at last to strike a killing blow against the hated Candrens but without the resources to fully execute the machinations required to do so. Archych feeds his frustration, frequenting top-end Absalom eateries like the Golden Serpent and Sanga Bistro, where he sometimes overindulges in wine and speaks too loudly of his schemes.
