Ah Exil, you know nothing of his plan... why become the Archbishop when you can become wrath itself? :P

On a somewhat related note, I made a joke with Thrace about Az becoming the Archbishop of either Diligence or Patience.


Definitely Patience. He can become a giant who seems very sedate and then has literal explosions of violent temper.

Considering how it looks like Daniel & co. are already planning on cheating, I suspect that said die would be weighted to land in his favour. :p

Hand him a +1 bonus on his roll.

+ 2 if Lucia also helps with the cheating.

What's slightly interesting is that ICly, Pride has spent roughly around three years without a name, that's the period of time between him waking up and being named by Meta.

And in real life, it's also been more than three years since he was created as a nameless character xD

By the way, would it be okay with you and Exil if Filippo has heard rumors about the captured Faeries?

I personally wouldn't mind at all, but I can't speak for Exil.

I could probably have Clover and Spriggan run into Gabrielle as they're exploring the town trying to gather info in my next post.

Of course, if it doesn't clash with anything Exil has planned (not quite sure what he has planned yet, we'll still discuss that in detail later)

My plans are in an infantile stage anyway. I was still trying to figure out a way to point you towards Mirizia without instant slaughter.

Thanks, I appreciate that Exil...good looking out. :)

So in the meantime, I guess I can have Clover run into Gabriela and maybe the two of them run into Filippo, collecting some info if Dragos is down.

let's just make one thing clear: this is all ely's fault

Character Application


Name: Alexei Markov
Age: 39
Gender: Male
Sexual Orientation: Asexual; he evaluates his partners based on different criteria
Race: Human
Appearance:
Image
Image



Position/Status/Affiliation: Judge, as well as the Archbishop of Avaritia, leader of the Cult of Avaritia.
Skills/Powers//Magic: Alexei is quite skilled in black magic, particularly fire spells. However, he is also an extremely talented enchanter, and has a large collection of magical items of various sorts. He is willing to part with them--but always for a price. Whether that price is a traditional (although exorbitant) fee, or a set of conditions as set by him, is up to the buyer. However, if you agree to his conditions, you must keep them, else the item will permanently lose its magical power. Another more unique ability he has is the ability to syphon mana from others--although he must be touching the target, and he cannot take too much, lest he find himself overwhelmed. And finally, of course, he has the Authority of Avaritia--a twofold spell that can be weaponized either to induce unbearable greed in others, or to even induce a strange form of generosity--a generosity that leads them to give everything they have to him.
Equipment: Depending on when you interact with him, Alexei's equipment can vary wildly. With his enormous collection of magical items, it's hard to know exactly what he might carry at any given time. However, he always carries two specific enchanted items: a sword that turns icy cold in the presence of danger, and a small leather pouch that can never be filled, which he uses for carrying money.


Personality: As the Archbishop of Avaritia, it's only natural that Alexei would be a greedy man. And indeed, it often seems that the only thing that matters to him is money. He's extremely pragmatic and weighs his decisions by how much they benefit him, and tends to leave other considerations entirely unaddressed. He behaves in a rather aloof and sometimes cold manner more often than not, and his relationship with some of the other Archbishops is quite strained, particularly the sadistic Archbishop of Luxuria as well as the Archbishops of Superbia and Invidia. He does, however, have a warmer side, which he tends to exhibit while working as a judge, even though he's still the same money-hungry man. It largely seems to be a front, but there is a little bit more to it than that. Despite his wealth, he does not live in particular luxury--he refrains from spending in a manner that he considers frivolous, choosing instead to hoard his fortune.
Moral Alignment: Lawful Evil
Biography: Alexei Markov is a rather famed judge, although rumors of corruption and bribery swirl around him. No one has ever been able to conclusively prove anything, but some of his more questionable verdicts do nothing to quell the suspicion. What the general public does not know, however, is that he is also the Archbishop of Avaritia, and has been for quite a few years now. As an extremely wealthy and powerful man, he is able to keep his underhanded dealings and more sinful activities covered up, while always gaining more money. His past before the war is somewhat mysterious, as he never shared his personal life with the public, but the evidence of corruption goes back for a very long time, almost since he first became a judge. Although many people believe him to be corrupt, he's not worried about it at all. Instead, his sole focus is on accumulating more and more wealth. What he plans to do with it, if he even has plans for it at all, is as yet uncertain.
Goals: To collect as much money as possible--but if that's simply for his own gain, or for some other reason, is unknown.
