Haxilion Trood

Purse Master

Haxilion Trood is a world-weary, jaded, cynical, sarcastic-to-the-point-of-cruelty, sour-faced, and sour-thinking man. He never forgets a face or a detail, and his reputation for rudeness is born from his blunt, honest-to-the-core observations.

Mental characteristics

Accomplishments & Achievements

The dukes unanimously appointed Trood as purse master. It is the hardest position to earn in Baldur’s Gate, because everyone in this merchant city has to trust the purse master with all the gold. The office’s record-keeping and bureaucracy are the most extensive in the city.

Morality & Philosophy

Trood’s nonpartisan politics and integrity were the biggest factors leading to his appointment.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Purse Master Trood manages tax and toll collection and records; investment of city funds; and distribution of pay to all city offices and officials, including the Watch. The purse master is also responsible for ensuring that the Flaming Fist takes no more than its proper share of the taxes it collects. Unsurprisingly, the purse master wields incredible power, is hated by many, and is under constant scrutiny for signs of graft and Guild influence.
