Theophilius Cargan, "The Red Rogue"

A mercenary with a somewhat bloody reputation, Theophilius (please, call me Theo) is a rather overenthusiastic mage with a poorly-developed understanding of property law. Theophilius is a member of House Cargan, and most definitely not an ambitious foundling from the island of Thys.

Recently, Theophilius liberated a golem, called 'Pig'. Pig has proved an invaluable research assistant and faithful squire. Who else is going to carry all of his healing potions?

(After Fetch Quest)

Theo starts to feel strange about his treatment of Pig.

There are rumours that there will be a party held to celebrate Theo's return from Thys, and welcome him formally into house Cargan. Whilst on the one hand this is excellent news, on the other, Theo can't help but feel a strange sense of foreboding…

(After Night of the Rooster)

Theo vows vengeance against the Clockmakers' Guild, whilst entering into an uneasy pact with the Duchess Cargan to protect his identity.

Jimmy Hoskins agrees to let Theo see Pig (or: Unit-01) again, in his capacity as 'research assistant'. Jimmy also wants Theo to keep an eye on certain people for him, just in case…

During his interview with Jimmy, Theo reflects on the choices that have led him to be who he is.

• Trope: the Lovable Rogue: for one encounter per adventure, you are unable to tell the truth – you must lie or give misleading answers in every instance. The up-side to this is that those you interact with during this encounter will tolerate your misdeeds more than usual, showing greater leniency towards your behaviour than they might otherwise. You are sometimes able to exercise some control over when this hits – you’ll need to toss a coin before each adventure to decide which of you or the GM gets to determine the encounter when you adopt the Lovable Rogue trope.
