The Lesser Boneheart

These six NPCs are mostly in difficult situations, for they are charged with command and control of large areas of Iuz's empire and if anything goes wrong, they get the blame. Some of these, such as Vayne are in decline, others like Cranzer have especially tenuous positions, and some like Xenvelen are rising stars. Adventure themes may well focus, not on slaying them, but on stymieing them, which might get them replaced by Iuz, who does not stand for incompetence and failure.
