The Kingmaker Cast

The player characters in the Kingmaker campaign are currently:

• Satampra Zieros, Ruler, CG male human rogue 3/swashbuckler 13
• Orseen, Councilor, LN male human orc gnoll warpriest of Iomedae 16
• Aakif “Skala” Stone Raganus, CN male human arcanist 16
• Kwin D’noot, High Priest, CG male dwarf cleric of Cayden Cailean 16

Satampra Zieros comes from a far-away land of stone cities and wild jungles. He was press-ganged onto a ship that brought him to this continent. After escaping from that unfortunate situation, he found a charter for the pacification and exploration of the Greenbelt on the body of a dead man. When the group was given license to settle the Greenbelt as an independent kingdom, he was made Ruler by virtue of being the only party member with a positive Charisma bonus. He fights with an Aldori dueling sword. He is married to Sojana Varn, has a son named Jantiff, and a daughter named Madouc. He is played by Drew.

Orseen is a warpriest of Iomedae, who possibly came to Caerelia by way of Restov. His background hasn’t been worked out yet, but he likes hitting evil things with a big sword. He is played by Bill.

Aakif “Skala” Stone Raganus is the bastard child of a minor noble house in Brevoy. After defeating his uncle and cousins who had taken over the house, he was recognized as his father’s true heir. He is played by Dante.

Kwin D’noot is a yet another cleric of Cayden Cailean. He was promoted to the role of High Priest after Remesio of Mivon was torn apart by a weretiger. He is played by Antony.

The former player characters include:

• Remesio of Mivon, High Priest, CGish male human cleric 14, deceased
• Iofur, Keeper of the Grove [a renamed Treasurer], TN male human druid 10, semi-retired
• Mestinous, Spymaster, CN male elf wizard 10, semi-retired
• Boliden, General, CN male human barbarian 8, retired
• Aurelius Heptamus, Councilor, ? male human halfling fighter 8, semi-retired
• Breen Everstead, Councilor, LN male human monk 7, deceased
• Simon Wellread, High Priest, CG male human cleric of Cayden Cailean 7, deceased
• Salar, Councilor, NG male halfling ranger 6, deceased
• Travaris Stone, High Priest, CN male half-elf cleric of Cayden Cailean 5, deceased
• Halas Halasin, LG male human inquisitor of Iomedae 2, retired

Remesio of Mivon was a yet another cleric of Cayden Cailean. He came to Stagfell around the time of the previous cleric’s death, and resolved to stay and help rebuild the faith in Caerelia. This cleric was killed by Alisen the weretiger during Pitax’s initial assault on the kingdom. He was played by Antony.

Iofur is the son of a husband-wife bandit duo that operated in southern Brevoy. His parents always sought to rob travelers without harming anyone by using traps and trickery. One day, though, they were overwhelmed and arrested. Iofur ended up in the care of his Uncle Joren, a druid of Erastil who watches over some villages. Iofur himself follows Gozreh, and has the Storm domain. He is played by Thomas.

Mestinous is a mysterious and very agile elf who wears a rainbow cloak and carries a stash of elven pipeweed. He hails from the Mordant Spire, where he escaped the breeding programs to be raised by his Uncle Gilzaris. Gilzaris is a merchant, sailor, and magician, and taught the young Mestinous the art of wizardry. Mestinous’ bonded object is his sword, and he is a generalist wizard. He is married to Tamara Fodorov and has a son named Hadric. He is played by Joe, who has become too busy with work to game much these days.

Boliden is a Tiger Lord barbarian looking to prove himself. He hits things real hard. When he rages, he becomes bestial and grows claws. He is played by Robert, although he is retired at this point as Robert is very busy with his growing family in real life. As an NPC, Boliden has gone on to become the leader of the Tiger Lords while claiming to be the true Armag Reborn.

Aurelius Heptamus is a warrior from Mivon who journeyed to Caerelia with his sister, who was to be married to a minor lord there. He decided to stay and work for Breen Everstead after being impressed by the monk’s wisdom and discipline. After Breen’s death, Aurelius was eventually chosen by the rulers to succeed the monk as Councilor. He wore heavy armor and carried a tower shield. During a foray into the First World, he was hit by a critical strike with a greataxe in the hands of a frost giant and killed. Iofur the druid subsequently reincarnated Aurelius as a halfling. The new Aurelius decided to retire from adventuring but stayed on as Councilor, and eventually became Lord Mayor of Fort Drelev (which he renamed Fort Heptamus). He was played by Bill.

Breen Everstead was a Monk of the Empty Hand who was raised in and escaped from a Lawful Evil environment. As a result, he sometimes forgot that stuff like murder and torture are wrong. He worked under Councilor Salar, and when Salar died, Breen took over the position. He was torn apart by the rock troll in Hargulka’s lair. He was played by Bill.

Simon Wellread was a cleric of Cayden Cailean who served as Travaris Stone’s second. When Travaris died, Simon took over as High Priest for the kingdom. The circumstances of his death are a bit complicated: a flying wizard was carrying him while he was grappled by a green hag, and the hag cast grease on Simon when they were 200′ in the air. Simon did not survive the fall, although the hag did. He was played by Antony.

Salar was an escaped slave from Osirion. For some time, he traveled with his liberator and the son of his former owners, Halas Halasin. He fancied himself the party tank, and burned with righteous passion at the thought of anyone or anything ever being enslaved or oppressed. He was killed by lightning bolts called down by Iofur the druid against the Dancing Lady, who was feasting on Salar’s essence at the time. He was played by Bill.

Travaris Stone was the bastard child of the head of a minor Brevoy house. His half-brother learned that their father planned to declare Travaris a full-blooded heir, and had their father murdered. The young Travaris escaped with his life and ended up in an orphanage, and was subsequently adopted by the local church of Cayden Cailean. He was eaten by the tendriculos in the Mud Bowl while picking mushrooms. He was played by Antony.

Halas Halasin became disgusted with his family’s slave-owning ways and led a slave rebellion against his own blood. Afterwards, he & Salar struck out on their own. During their time exploring the Greenbelt, Halas received word that his father had died, and he was needed to assume leadership of his house. What really happened is that Halas’ player, a friend of Bill’s, had to move out of state.
