Spoiler: TopHat (click to show/hide)

Name: Johann Vrax
Archetype: Wizard (Master of the Magical and mundane: strong bonus to plotting)
Race: Human - of all the civilized races, perhaps the most prone to lofty ambition and through it, the temptations of evil.
Infamy: 0
Gold: 1250 - 300 = 950
Resources: 34
Magic : 3
Minions: (5/5)
- 1 Apprentice
- 4 Serfs

Known Opportunities:
- Resource Stockpile : Risk : Low, Loot : Material, Notoriety : Neglible Time 3 weeks

Base:
Description: A remote and ancient guard tower, predating even the Crusades. Cleansed and occupied by the Church, it has for centuries watched over the surrounding badlands for the taint of evil. With the withdrawal of Church forces to their heartlands, the tower was reluctantly abandoned, and has since found a new owner.
Buildings
- 1 Library
Traits:
- Shadowed Past : no-one knows who built this tower, for what purpose, or even when. Even after centuries of Church investigation, it still has secrets left to tell.
- Solid Construction: This tower has stood for centuries, and survived being stormed or seiged numerous times. Whoever built it clearly intended it to last, and knew what they were doing.
- Imposing location - atop a rocky outcrop, the tower commands views of miles around, dominating the surrounding land.

The optimism with which Vrax had began the week turned out to have been unfounded. He was currently standing in his new library - a nice room, even if the desk was quite obviously a crate with the Church emblem hastily sanded off - trying to get his minions to explain how that was a week's worth of work from one man, while the pathetically small pile of wood and stone left pointedly on the floor was the work of three. No explanation was yet forthcoming.

He carried on in this vein for some time, before giving them their new set of orders. Since they seemed to lack the initiative to work this sort of thing out themselves, he sketched out the peoposed theft of material from the watchtower. Plan outlined, there was one statement left to make: "Bors, you're in charge. Show me what you can do." The library builder grinned, wider even than he had while being held up as a shining example of work ethic. "The rest of you: listen to him, and don't fail me again. Dismissed."
As they turned to leave, the voice lashed out again, almost as an afterthought. "No, not you" His apprentice stopped dead, the others giving her pitying looks as they departed.

Vrax stood there silently, watching as his protégée grew increasingly nervous under his scrutinizing gaze. Then he turned, suddenly, as if he had reached a decision, stalked across the room, and plucked a book from it's resting place with a delicacy belying the fact that it was the only one on the shelf. "We'll start with this one." There was a faint smile on his lips as he pressed the tome into the hands of his bewildered apprentice; The Compleat Booke of Charms and Compulsions.

Edit- fluff added.
