Baldorius

Baldorius is a powerful and dangerous wizard.

History
The history of this character is very mysterious, but he apparently once served as a court wizard in the elven city of Ashcourt.

Description
Baldorius is a hedonist, obsessed with chemical and sexual pleasure. He is similarly obsessed with relative power, desiring to destroy and inflict pain on others as a means of proving his own superiority. He makes offerings to fiends, usually demons, but seems to have no one particular master who he esteems above any other.
