Paschalis Sacerdos

As the only son of a live-in Mage Advisor to a ruler, Paschalis enjoyed a childhood of privilege, safe inside castle walls. So it continued, until the enchantress Valda Duerrg (page 86) set her eyes on that life for herself. Through beauty and sorcery, she warped the ruler’s mind until he fully believed he was surrounded by traitorous usurpers. Scores were put to the guillotine, including his parents. Valda solidified her position in becoming the ruler’s consort, but within the year he withered from an unknown ailment, still too paranoid to allow the Clerics anywhere near him. She remains safely within the walls of his castle. Paschalis learns, and waits for his chance.
