Lost Control (NPCs)

These are the NPCs to the campaign Lost Control, The Shears are Forged.

Finneas
Finneas is the only blacksmith in the town of Talagbar. He has a daughter, who was rescued from the Storm Fury Orcs during their attempt to steal the Ironfell metal from the town. It is clear from his amount of work in such a small town that Finneas is working with the metal, supplying Galvin and his men with Ironfell made weapons. It is a good assumption that Finneas knows the power of this metal, but it is also clear that Galvin does not want that information out. 

Father Aslen
Father Aslen is a priest of Tymora, stationed in the harsh town of Talagbar. He acts as a spiritual leader in the town, and oversees the several small temples. He has much knowledge on the subject of religion, history, and Vaasa. Though Aslen does not agree with some of the things the Warlock Knights are doing, he has stayed in the area to help where he can.

Father Aslen was horribly disfigured and lost his home during the attack on Talagbar. 

Galvin Hildenoth
Galvin Hildenoth is the Warlock Knight in charge of Talagbar. Compared to other Knights, he can be described as forgiving and fair. To any outsider, however, he still holds the air of tyrant and murderer. He is a very large man for a human, an avid hunter of all game, and firmly paranoid about any uprising against his ultimate rule of the town. He hates the Holy Liberators, most non-humans, and does not tolerate disobedience.

Thanks to Sevarius's ritual, Hildenoth has woken up. However, his body has withered away, and he is in a very weakened state. Eventually, his weakness was found out by his enemies. He fled the city, knowing he was to die, and his current whereabouts are unknown. 

Dorien
Dorien is a dwarf, at least to one's mortal eyes. Dorien was encountered on the sacred Wise Mountain clan's mountain before it was destroyed. With the influence of the spores on the mountain, it was clear that Dorien was no ordinary dwarf, as he appeared to be a blue lizard. It is surmised that Dorien killed the Orc Chief and Spirit of the Mountain, and thought that Dorien himself has connections to the spirit world. Dorien has appeared with Thorcan and Merran in several dreams and visions, all telling of destruction or despair. Dorien appears to be a venerable dwarf.

Dorien appears to be involved in a much larger plot, and has links to the Guran'chuk and the mysterious eladrin. He has helped the group on several occasions - at least, to do what HE wants done. 

Thorcan Orangeshield
Thorcan is a well-off dwarf who makes his home in Talagbar. The only free dwarf in the town, it is widely known that Thorcan sold out his people for his position and wealth. Like Dorien and Merran, Thorcan appears to have a connection to the spirit world, as he appears to look like a blue lizard and controls the element of lightning in his hands. He appears younger than Dorien. 

Merran Forgemaster
Merran is a dwarf who is currently a slave in the mines near Talagbar. A friend to both Iris and Darksong, it is later found that he too appears to be a blue lizard. Merran, like the others, claim ignorance to any ideas about not being a dwarf. 

Ferralnoc and the Wise Mountain Clan
The Wise Mountain Clan is a tribe of orcs who have a peace treaty with the town of Talagbar. Their former leader, a very old Orc named Thragg, was quite probably a spirit avatar and spirit guardian of the mountain near their camp. With the death of Thragg, Ferralnoc has become the clan's leader. 

Edgar Salvone
Edgar is the captain of the guard in Talagbar, and Iris' immediate superior. Edgar first appeared when he questioned Azurra's guardianship of Estel.

Edgar is currently running Talagbar until Hildenoth recovers. He is also making preparations for what he fears may happen to the city during Hildenoth's absence. Edgar died defending the city, after Hildenoth abandoned it. 

Mansard Kanaoth
Mansard Kanaoth is the brutal ruler of Palischuk. His views on the Telos and the use of Ironfell differ sharply from those of the Voice of Telos. Due to looming threat of the Storm Fury Clan and Palischuk's proximity to Castle Perilous, Mansard has made a powerful military force with many Warlock Knights within their ranks. 

Serana Kanaoth
Serana is the biological daughter of Mansard. She is a kind person that has led a relatively sheltered life. However, she is not blind to the misery and oppression that surrounds her. She secretly worships Torm and hopes to one day use her position to bring about change to the land. She is enamored by Estel, and the two have become friends, periodically sending letters to each other. 

Leorinn Kanaoth
Leorinn is the younger of Mansard's two adopted sons. Although Leorinn has always lived in his older brother's shadow, he is an accomplished swordsman and quite cunning. He is also the youngest person to be inducted into the Warlock Knights. However, his detractors claim that he achieved this because he is Mansard's son. Leorinn is a kind young man, and a secret follower of Torm. One day he hopes to aid his sister in ending the misery in Vaasa. He is also fiercely protective of Serana. 

Daarkonthis Kanaoth
Daarkonthis is the elder of Mansard's two adopted sons. He is quiet and appears somewhat stoic, especially in comparison to his younger brother, Leorinn. Despite this, though, he cares deeply for his family and his home. He is a gifted with a sword and a thinks with a clear head. Despite his youth, he is highly regarded for his skills and accomplishments. 

Michael Malizia Daydominico
Michael is a powerful follower of Shar, and due to a treaty between gods over a millenium old, he is Joseph's destined foe. Michael is the antithesis of everything Joseph believes in. He has no regard whatsoever for the sanctity of life, and he will torment those weaker than he for the sheer pleasure. Michael recently visited Joseph for his twenty-first birthday.Talagbar suffered for this. Several building were burnt to the ground and many people are injured. Thankfully, and oddly, nobody died. 

Sevarius
Sevarius is Talagbar's ritualist. While he is unsure of what affliction Hildenoth is under, he is quite confident that a ritual he is developing will be able to awaken him. However, he needs a rare reagent for the ritual: the moss that grows on the back of the mythical Buuran'chir.

Sevarius is known to have betrayed Talagbar - perhaps to Palischuk and her allies. 

Kremziek
''Kremziek no like visitors! Shut up!'' Kremziek is an old kobold that shares a cave with the legendary Guran'chuk and a tribe of troglodytes. He is cowardly, greedy, and doesn't enjoy being disturbed. Kremziek is a servant of the Guran'chuk, and keeps it informed of activities in the outside world.

Kremziek agreed to lead the party through the cave to find the buuran-chir, even though Kremziek believed it be "too soon" for the group to be there. Kremziek led them to the Guran-chuk, where he and the beast briefly spoke. 

The Guran'chuk
Ancient beyond reason, the Guran'chuk lies sealed behind a ring of archaic and powerful magic. During the millennia of imprisonment he has learned to control his rage, but the primeval being is still impatient. The Guran'chuk has taken a special interest in Iris. He believes that she is the Anointed One who will break the seal that binds him to the cave. 

Turlen and Althek
Turlen and Althek are a pair of Warlock Knights interested in making Talagbar their own. Turlen is loud, ambitious, and aggressive. Turlen commands a gang of humans and non-humans in northern Vaasa. He will stop at nothing to gain more power, and now he has his eyes set on Talagbar. Althek is Turlen's second-in-command. He is quieter than Turlen, but he is just as ambitious. While not as powerful or aggressive as Turlen, he is still very skilled. Althek keeps a clear head and keeps his eyes on the prize when Turlen loses himself in the moment.

Turlen and Althek gathered their gang and attacked Talagbar when news of Hildenoth's condition reached them. Their plans of taking over Talagbar were foiled by Talagbar's guard with help from the group. <br style="clear:both" />
