Warnes Starcoat
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In the Dungeons and Dragons World of Greyhawk campaign setting, Warnes Starcoat is a powerful human wizard, and a member of the Circle of Eight since 585 CY. He is also a Counselor to the Courts of Urnst and Chief Sorcerous Councilor (an office also known as "Chief Magical Councilor") to Duke Karll of the Duchy of Urnst.
[edit] Description
Warnes appears as a greatly-refined gentleman of Suel ethnicity, though his complexion is tanned from spending much of his time outdoors. Warnes wears the Starcoat, and is rarely seen without his wide-brimmed, plumed hat.
[edit] History
Warnes was born in 534 CY in Leukish, capital of the Duchy of Urnst, to a merchant family of moderate influence and wealth. The third son of four, he was sent to the city of Seltaren when he came of age, to study magic at the Wizardholme of Urnst. Warnes proved to be quite talented, beconing a well-regarded generalist mage before the age of thirty.
Warnes helped retrieve the Crook of Rao from the Isle of the Ape, thwarting the machinations of Iggwilv.
