Character Description

Pierre, a young hotheaded cousin of Olivier and Joseph, left Atamara at a young age with ideas of grandeur. He ended up in Dwilight, where he quickly joined Morek and the Order of the Maddening Star. He enjoys the opportunities afforded by a mostly uncolonized land. He puts himself in trouble more than even basic regard for his own life should allow, but somehow always ends up surviving to tell the tale.

He later changed career and has become a bureaucrat, a post where he can be useful to the realm despite his modest income. He was successful in this. Later, when gold starting coming more easily, he took up the sword again, but keeps his quills set in a box he always carries around, in case his old skills can be useful.

He ran for the post of Coffermaster in the 5th year of Dwilight but had to retract his candidature when Lady Alanya Costella received official support from the Duchess of Donghaiwei. He also hired a preceptor to train his diplomatic skills, hoping to better serve the realm.

In the summer of the 5th year, a mysterious plague has hurt the Duchy of Donghaiwei and three of its lords have disappeared from public view. Pierre was then appointed Viscount of Huanghai by Duchess Allison Kabrinski. He became ambassador of Morek, later Xinhai when the Duchy of Donghaiwei seceded, and has signed a few treaties.

He was for a long time the owner of the Ancient Buckler of the Dragonslayer, which he eventually gave to former High Inquisitor Branthorpe Silverbear in recognition of his continuous bravery in battle. This felt oddly liberating to him. Along with the realizations that he would never gain the position of High Inquisitor, something he had worked towards for quite some time, helped him to take the decision to make a large change in his life. He gave the Countship of Huanghai to Krain Marrs, who had been his loyal knight since the beginning, abandoned his weapons, his quills, the intrigues of the court, and became a priest of Sanguis Astroism in the founding temple of Caiyun. He plans to preach in the south and convert the heathen lands in and around Pian en Luries.

• Pian en Luries
• Running for Consul
• Discussion with Torpius

Later, he became himself the Lord of Caiyun, and was created Duke of the First Temple in recognition of the special status of the founding region of the Church. He rose through Church ranks, becoming Luminary first of the Maddening and then of the Austere, with a stint as Regent of the Faith for one term. He also participated in two magistratum trials, included one as Head Magistrate.

Always keeping in mind the southern expansion of the Church, he eventually left Morek, where the church was secure, to join D'Hara. He used his influence there to convert many nobles and to advance the interest of the Church in the lands controlled by the Veinsormoot and the Novans. He was killed during the war against the heretic Jonsu Himoura when she was supported by the Novan army in the battle of Qubel Lighthouse. Reactions to his death have been kept in the crypt where his body is deposed.
