Vilas (Anathema)'s Links
My mentor. Sure, the Cabinet will rejoice in any and all knowledge I can pry from a mage of his stature and notoriety, but I want more. Maybe there'll be some answers to be had when it comes to this hellish existence.
Assistant. Agathias does not yet spare the man a lot of thought; he is a convenient helper at most, setting up experiments, organizing materials, and taking notes. Finds that Vilas is efficient and seems to have a head for study, and does not balk at more hands-on Witchfinder tasks, but he doesn’t outright show any out-of-the-ordinary qualities just yet—though slivers of conversation have hinted at some potential. Perhaps a candidate to mold and shape into more than a mere assistant…
You lied to me, and I will find out what else you are hiding. Just... Stay, if you can. I don't want this loneliness.
I had to lie to you, don't you understand? I see you down to the core - you would never have let me in had I spoken nothing but truth. I can fix you, if you'd just let me. I can set you free from yourself.
My handler and oldest friend, I suppose. For someone I've known almost all my life, they surely don't make understanding them easy. You know I can't stop visiting and yet you would torture me with your antics. Just let me breathe, will you. Please.
For a disgraced noble, she certainly had some spirit. It's a pity that she escaped with that dangerous.... Familiar of hers - people are bound to get hurt.
A runaway mage, but I saw nothing. The Order won't miss them for long with everything else going on, and I can appreciate them humoring me.
Initially met a year ago, encountered him again more recently by coincidence. Very suspicious of the (ex?) witchfinder, finds him infuriating. Unfortunately for them, they also think he’s funny and they kinda like him. He reminds them of themself, in some ways. Why can’t their feelings just be straightforward!
Oh, he was fun! So firey, my. For once someone gets it, nevermind all these other damn dullards who can't take a joke in the ring without malding on the spot. I'll be taking that tooth back next time we meet, though.
Hope you enjoyed having all your teeth in your mouth
A mage, been stuck with the Order as long as I've. Stay away from me with that rotten mindreading of yours, thank you very much. Your empathy is better spent elsewhere.
Mochrie, Mochrie. What am I to call someone like you, so present even in your absence? I can only hope he fares well in Faline despite the current unrest. Even now he feels more like family than I'd ever dare to admit aloud, but perhaps he knows anyway - he so often does.
A mage my love has taken a liking to. I owe him a debt but once that is paid... Well, no matter, it is a peculiar situation we find ourselves in.
He is an anchor amongst the libraries of Namarast. A surprising friend, perhaps, though I have no idea why he'd tolerate my ilk when his own curse burdens him so. He is more generous than he should be, but I would be remiss if I did not take all he had to offer.
