[QUOTE="the Jester, post: 1529031, member: 1210"] [b]Farenth[/b] Ah, Farenth- now [i]there’s[/i] a topic. As Galador and Bleak each started trying to pull Dexter’s strings in one way or another, Farenth, a lowly cleric of Darkness, sailed with him for a time, then was kicked off the vessel. During this time, he grew to hate Dexter with a burning passion. He hated Malford. He hated Lyr, and Chanti, and Galliger; and by the time he was put ashore, he swore revenge against them all. Farenth was dark-haired, with a trimmed beard and moustache. His eyes held the kind of crazy light that usually means you should get the hell away from this guy right now. When the party first met him, he was of average build; but as his obsession with his former shipmates grew, he ate less and less and became more and more gaunt and ruined. A heavy diet of narcotics, spicy fermented drinks and psychedelic grubs began to twist the already-twisted man further and further from anything like conventional thought. Farenth spent a number of months in planning. The darkness carried him away on wings of evil; as the place he stayed in spun around his hallucinating eyes, he realized that Dexter was his antithesis- where Farenth had come from a life of good and privilege only to sink into the depths of depravity, Dexter had risen from the abysmal state he was in when Galliger was influencing him to a state of grace. So what if Bleak got his soul when he died, so long as he lived? Farenth began styling himself the Son of Darkness- the Child of Bleak. It started as a metaphor, but spiraled quickly out of control in his crazed mind, and one night soon he believed that he had been visited by Bleak. Perhaps he had; who can say what a visitation by one’s god will look like? Regardless, Farenth somehow emerged from this terrible night, during which various objects had been destroyed and cast about the room violently (perhaps in his raving psychotic state he’d done it himself- again, who knows), and Farenth somehow had garnered a great deal of information concerning our heroes. He realized now that the only way to truly do justice to his hatred for Malford, Dexter, Chant, Lyr, and the rest would be to get them to kill one another. He began to move the pieces into place. Chanti, Lyr and the rest of the pirates (those were the two he [i]really[/i] hated) could be lured in if they thought they could kill Dexter. Farenth was sure of that. Chanticleer could be counted on to see to it; she wanted his blood, even if the others might not. Make it look easy and they will come. As to luring Dexter and Malford- that would be a little more difficult. But Farenth put his evil mind to work on it and soon came up with a plan. He would kidnap the confessor.
