Hazkal Brannoksson is a brilliant Aether-Khemist with a focus on the utilization of Aether-Gold in medicinal applications. His research has proven to be incredibly promising, if controversial–given the long-term effects of Aether-Gold exposure. As such, Hazkal has not been able to capitalize upon his successes financially. Those who know him are hardly surprised. He has long held a reputation for being quite unskilled in matters of business. With such an unseemly reputation, he is considered a “black cloud” by most of his family, save his adventuresome cousin Thori Snorrisson.

The opportunity to expand and perfect his craft, however, was too great an opportunity to let pass. With his keen interest in the effects of Aether-Gold exposure upon the body and its maddening long-term effects, Hazkal hopes to be able to focus his research into curing such conditions and more. Given enough study, mayhap even the magical poxes of Chaos might be cured with Aether-Gold infused medications. Surely that would earn him the respect of his peers!

They hail from Barak-Hirn, where their father – Barliman Bugmansbur – runs the beer hall that is their company headquarters.
The Drowned Citadel
Civilia’s Ruin is now solidly in the hands of Sorrah and her allies. Those that sought to defend the city have either been killed by those they thought to be friends, are missing, or have turned to the Dell in search of a new way forward. To make matters more complicated, the Seraphon from the Xarlanth continue their incursions with their broken ship clearly in mind.
Opportunity Cost
The Ghurish jungle of the Dell was a puzzle. It was always somewhat familiar; rainforest birds sung in the trees, and all manner of crawlers scuttled on the vegetation or swarmed low to the ground. It was these similarities that only caused more...
