@degenerateafro@Nk9bjP4A Just looking at the mage situation, it's pretty clear brain cells and competence has not been distributed evenly across this land. Or even information? Plus this seems like a segue into the larger conspiracy since it also has ties to a prominent mage and that in order to circumvent any possible corruption they used Will's royal connections to go straight to top, implying that anything less was too high a risk. This noble's probably just a mook in the grand scheme, the kind of character that was born suckling on the idiot ball.
@HDMI1 Gene Wilder and Cleavon Little man, Blazing Saddles, brings back good memories. Good stuff man. :) Reminds me Mr. Wilder lives near by me before he past away, my sister met him at a charity fund raiser. I think it was for cancer in memory of his wife. I'm not sure if I'm remembering that right?
Edit: Yup, looked it up, it was ovarian cancer that got his wife, breast cancer for our family..
I'm still waiting for conflict about this guy's adventurer life choice. I feel like their just avoiding it even though its the most interesting part of his character
