Merrix d'Cannith

Baron Merrix d'Cannith is the current head of the southern holdings of House Cannith, including the Sharn Cannith enclave in Breland. He is currently one of the most renowned and brilliant inventors in Khorvaire.

Merrix's main interests are in research, and development, particularly on the warforged. He also frequently sponsors expeditions into the Mournland to recover Cannith equipment and designs lost in the Day of Mourning, especially around the Cannith forgehold of Whitehearth.

Besides research into warforged, Merrix also works to improve the living conditions of Warforged in Sharn. Warforged who work at the Cannith enclave are treated as equal to the other employees.

Merrix was born during the Last War, a few years before the first modern warforged were created. He is the son of Aaren d'Cannith, and grandson of his namesake, Merrix d'Cannith the Elder. In 970 YK, his father Aaren was excoriated from House Cannith, and Merrix was subsequently adopted by his grandfather.
