Than cultist
First Impressions
An ugly, small man with an axe and shield but only cuiboille armour.
Referee Only
He has a Guardian in the body of a beautiful woman, who carries his
Heads for him. She's usually hidden well away from fighting.
Character Traits
After being unregenerably castrated by a Babeester Gor cultist,
began collecting their heads specifically. Still interested in violent
rape (Castrati can be quite passionate).
If possible, he will offer to trade his life in return for
answering one question truthfully. He claims he has a one-use Truth spell
which will summon a spirit of Knowledge to answer one question. This
will allow him to summon a Void, (for he has no such Truth spell) which
he would attempt to wrestle a PC into & dive into himself - a glorious
way to go, to him. Thanatari have no fear of Death.
Geas: Distrust everyone in Atyar and Than-Atyar. Well... don't you?
Geas: always challenge Lankhor Mhy worshippers to the death.
Geas: never use fire, even cult light.
Typical Catchphrases
"Dum Vivimus, Vivamus!" [While we live, let us Live!]
"Well he-llooooo, my pretty!"
"The corruption of the best is is the best of all" [e.g. if PCs decide to kill him as a prisoner]
"A sound mind in a sound body!" [Ironically]
"Fortune favours fools"
