Magistrate Featherfall

Featherfall

A shortsighted Skyfowl ruler killed by feedback when his attempt to dominate the Swordsmen served Miss Quill's deeper scheme.

Story so far

After succeeding Remex as magistrate, Featherfall asks how to gain greater control over the town's Swordsmen. He recruits Miss Quill to help resurrect the dead Remex as a powerful Soul Leech Capacitor and assumes the Night Votive position beside the Soul Crystal.

The nearby Amplifier magnifies the spell's feedback and kills him as Quill planned. She then uses forgery magic to pretend he remains alive while she takes over the settlement.

Appearance

A male Skyfowl; Remex provides no additional physical detail beyond Featherfall's former office and ritual role.

Role

Featherfall's hunger for local control supplies Quill with the ritual and cover needed to seize power.

Relationships

Remex — He succeeds Remex as magistrate, then orders the resurrection that drags Remex back as a capacitor.
Miss Quill — He trusts her ritual assistance, unaware she intends the magical feedback to kill him.
Swordsmen Guards — His desire to subjugate the guardians begins the fatal resurrection scheme.
