Story so far
By the last minutes of the ninth floor, D'Nadia's forces were finished. Among the surrendered enemy mercenaries staring down at Carl from the tiers of Larracos was Corporal Pillbox, a gnoll who had been in Empress D'Nadia's employ and had somehow managed to survive.
Carl's instinct was to kill them all for the stat gain, the way Li Na had. He refused, and told the audience demanding it to fuck off. D'Nadia's surviving mercenaries were left to be transferred out of the dungeon like all the other outworlders when Zerzura fired.
Role
The defeated enemy commander whose surviving soldiers Carl chooses to spare.
Relationships
