Baltazar

CanonOfficial lore from the books▶ Actual play

Baltazar is an armoured warrior who fought beside Kemp Corvus, Sarah and Ephorus in the Sürgün Günlükleri ("Exile Chronicles") campaign. When Karak planned an ambush on a drow priestess at the chasm below Gromkar, he said that a volunteer from a newly arrived column who would be useful in battle might join the companions, and they settled the matter with the Baron.12

On meeting him, the companions talked over the problems of a man in armour who could not see in the dark: hiding, and the need for light. He made ready to support them in battle, and voiced his belief that victory would belong to the faithful.3

The ambush

In the plan for the ambush, Kemp and Baltazar were to hold the front of the line while Sarah and Ephorus kept their distance. When the fight came he struck with his weapon and was wounded; Kemp changed places with him to shield him, and when the fight was over he was found to be badly hurt.456

In the retreat the company slid a very long way down a passage, and Baltazar was left unconscious; they held the sharp-smelling fuel of a lamp under his nose to rouse him. When he woke, the companions told him what had happened, that they were being held in a hidden underground colony, and that the way back might take ten to fifteen days. Among the people they had met, they mentioned a chain-bearer.789

Talking over the ambush afterwards, the company recalled how the fight had come together, from a drow's thrown dagger to a priest swooping down through the air. Baltazar admired the way adventurers worked together, so unlike the ordered warfare he was used to. Back in Gromkar after a two-day journey, he left the companions to go to the witch hunters.1011

Osterhn

When the companions prepared to face The Puppeteer at Osterhn, Baltazar was named with the witch hunters and other friends among those who might hold a staged defence between the town, the road and the castle. In the plans for the last fight he was to be kept back, if needed, to support and heal.121314
