Manut Octenheimer’s first recorded appearance was in Excelsis. He started off as a minor noble, although his family’s past was shrouded in mystery. He gradually worked his way up through the ranks of the city’s government, eventually spending several months as personal aide to High Arbiter, Ortam Vermyre. He was generally considered a sound political activist who specialised in solving internal rivalries amongst the noble families of Excelsis. No matter the complexity, or history involved, Octenheimer had an uncanny knack for being able to bring people round to his point of view.
