Friends,
It has been a while since my last query, but I am reaching out for some input regarding this NPC. Jaikor features somewhat prominently in my campaign since my player has a crusader of Heironeous. (Un?)fortunately the source guides are rather scant on information regarding Jaikor.
We know that he is 5th/7th level fighter/priest at the time of 582/583 CY from the City of Greyhawk boxed set and is in charge of the Sanctum at this time. By the time The Adventure Begins source guide comes around, it is 591 and Jaikor, still alive (though greatly wounded) has risen to 10th lvl as a priest. The only stats given are 16 in Str, Wis, and Char.
Here is what I would like people to offer, based on their own interpretations, or what you have gleaned from source material:
1) How old is he (from 582/583) at the time of the City of Greyhawk boxed set? Nothing is indicated, and I would like a general idea.
2) From where does he come? Is he a local from the City? The domain? Or is he from a neighboring country like the Shield Lands/Furyondy? And if so, why did he immigrate to the City of Greyhawk?
3) We know he started his career as a warrior. Was he a soldier? A mercenary? A guardsman, etc?
4) At some point in his career he transitioned to a cleric. What was the backstory on that? And how did he become, at a relatively middling level, the primary and chief cleric of the Sanctum?
All suggestions, perspectives, and opinions are welcome!
thank you
Lanthorn
