The eldest of three brothers, it was to be Icarus' who inherited the company and the fortune once their father died. And so he did.He was a shrewd and noble businessman, very much loved by his employees and the other merchants of the city. One day he fell in love with the Lord's daughter. A scarce two weeks later and they were wed. It was beautiful.A few months later his wife fell ill. Severely ill. The surgeon called it a wasting disease, the priest called it a foul blight cast upon her by the gods. Unwilling to accept the latter, Icarus spent much of the family fortune on bizarre and exotic medicines from far and wide to cure his wife, but none would work. He squandered the rest on donations to the church and purchasing blessed waters and healing from the clergy. Nothing worked.Icarus refused to give up. He petitioned for aid from every source, calling on every favour the family owed and spending every penny of the fortune. He finally acquired a book from a very shady looking sorcerer. The book, he claimed, would grant wishes most powerful.(I'll flesh this out a little more in my head, we'll leave it here for now)wrapping it up: the book was not a book but a cursed object. upon reading one of the many listed wishes a great devil appeared, made the offer to save her. icarus agreed, wife was saved. wife's body was save. wife was inhabited now by a succubus(oh ho ho). icarus wouldn't accept, called forth devil. devil laughed and called in on contract. stubborn and relentless icarus resisted and escaped. soon found demonic powers, the contract/bond to the devil still very much exists. devil owns soul and tries every so often to reclaim, with increasing ferocity.icarus tries now to understand and harness the power. perhaps with the devils strength he can save his wife and then break the bonds and happily ever after.also fortune is squandered, family split hatefully, no respect or money. icarus is destitute.Oh, and best of intentions! He's always got the best of intentions. After all this he still solidly refuses to surrender and is somewhat blindly optimistic.I'm trying to think how he might join the party...</blockquote>
