Ranzer's Story

Brought up with Remmy, etc, so on.

He found the library with the first Shadowwalking Manual on a mission with the Vindicators and was able to convince Remmy and the others that he could decipher the texts over time.

He sent Garrod to gather parties of adventures to travel to Continent 2 on occasion to strengthen the Vindicators.

He changed the shifts of the caravans so that Eldwyn intercepted the original party while on his way back from the mines.

He found the second Library, transported the Orc camp on top of it, and then suggested that the Vindicators create a second base there so that he might have a reason to spend time near it and study it as well as the first.

As the Blue-cloaked man, he saved Artayven and (Ryan's old character) from various places in order to keep the Vindicators climbing.

As the Blue-cloaked man, he committed a series of three robberies expecting that the Hidden Hand would attempt to follow his footsteps, which they did, so that when he contacted them he would have chips to bargain with them.

He easily infiltrated The Hidden Hand's mine and reached the portal to the Underdark, entering it without fear due to his ability to Shadowwalk.

He orchestrates a trade consisting of giving The Hidden Hand:

-Access to some Vindicator Information

-A general with the ability to Shadowwalk

In trade for:

-An orb of localized illusion magic

-Strengthened illusion magic

Once he has the orb, he travels to the strongest of the slum gangs, the Underlaws, and convinces the leaders that if they follow his advice they will gain power beyond their imagination. Once they agree, he places the orb and makes it seem that the Underlaws are growing much more slowly than they are.

Once the bargain was complete, as Randall, he helped take the Hidden Hand down via the Vindicators army and the party of players.

Via x, y, and z, he found out that the Church of Torag is binding gods to the earth and devises a plan to gain the powers of a god.

He helps take down the Church of Torag from the inside (the Blue-cloaked man).

He gains control of the powers of Azmodan and begins working toward taking over the city.
