His race enslaved all other races and now he's curious about a changed world in which his people don't rule, and humans build cities. To him, that's like dogs driving cars. He was gathering info by capturing human souls to interrogate and later sell. The PCs weren't happy when they finally uncovered the who-dunnit mystery of who made a village disappear. While he'd like more info, he's not at all happy about the dogs biting at him and peeing on his rug.Intriguing. I'm running a Kingmaker reboot, and a major premise is there's a BBEG super-fey who is cursed with a task to cause 1000 kingdoms to rise and fall in this part of the world (a fey-breach area that the PCs colonized), all in a unique way, before she can be free of the curse. She's really close, and the PCs are on her list of "help them rise to power" and then find a really special way to make them fall (fey love new experiences and get bored seeing the same old thing). It's convoluted but right now, if they die, their frontier barony really doesn't fall. It's currently on the brink of independence thanks to a civil war in their home kingdom, but if the Baron dies without an heir, it simply reverts to a Duke who raises a new Baron and that's that. All the effort she's put into manipulating this part of the world fails, and she'll probably have to invest another 5+ generations into it. She's helped them in the past (previously by offering a proxy deal to stabilize their barony, which resulted in a black dragon liquifying dissidents, which wasn't really what they wanted but led to a totally awesome new storyline...) It might be crazy if she intervenes. They'll know something crazy is up but not why. And it fits. She's got a real reason to fear this Boss. If he ever were to get his full powers back, he'd be a legit threat to her.</blockquote>
