Karga Flaymont is a stablehand who worked in the
Keep on the Borderlands. Now, he stays with
Kapital in the Caves of Chaos.
Description
Karga is a strong
human man from lands far away from
Gaes. He has calloused hands from years of hard work and combat.
He is an experienced archer, but equally deadly with an axe when he means to use one.
Personality
His sentences start with a lot of momentum, but he tends to trail off as he gets lost in thought or involved in his current task.
He once flew into a fit of rage after being knocked unconscious. The experience was very taxing for him, and he had trouble remembering what happened before, but seemed to accept whatever was told to him.
Relationships
Horses seem to almost revere him.
Karga and
Oramli were fast friends from previous travels.
He has frequent dreams of hills rolling forever and the laughter of a young girl with ribbons in her hair. He thinks he might have tied the ribbons but cannot recall much more than that. At one point, he whispered the name "Delabae" after waking up. Another time, he mouthed the name "Batu."
History
After the collapse of Gaes, he sought refuge in the Keep on the Borderlands, where he made a quiet living tending to the soldiers' horses.
When
Kapital first set out to investigate the Caves of Chaos, they hired him to accompany them. After disappearing for a short while, Karga returned with horses for each member of their party. Although he only agreed to serve as their guide, he was easily convinced to explore the cave network.
After deadly encounters with
two ogres and a
crypt spider, Karga suffered serious wounds while dragging the other injured to safety.
Douglas Bradshaw insisted that Karga be healed before he heroically sacrificed himself to collapse the crypt spider's tunnel.
When the
Poisoned Cup seized control of the keep, Karga escaped to the Caves of Chaos with Kapital.
Most recently, he accompanies
Koheleth on a journey to the lands between the Borderlands and
the Rift.
