Brian the Mad is Stranggore's autocrat. He is a non-player character controlled by the Storyguide.

Description

Brian is over 70 years old and suffers from gout and cataracts. He looks like a frail, bald old man with a long white beard, dressed in musty and threadbare robes. He is nearly blind and rarely leaves the walls of the Covenant. He has a son Harold the Mad who is also touched by magic.

Key Abilities

Brian was once a capable autocrat, until he went mad years ago. None the less he remains the living person with the most knowledge of the covenant's lore and resources.

  • Profession: Autocat
  • Area Lore (Strangore)
  • Artes Liberales
  • Speak Latin
  • Magic Lore

Personality

Brian sees things that aren't there and spends most of his time "delegating" tasks to imaginary servants. These things never get done, unless a grog or covenfolk overhears and decides to do it. As a result the covenant is falling apart.

  • Loyal +3
