Notes 
  • Sebastian Ironheart is one of the spies under the employ of Spymaster Odo out of Mount Uberstar and the Regency of the Mines. Officially, Sebastian poses as a merchant receiver in the city of Braunstein on the border between the Duchy of Ten and 'The Gloomy' the free city-states and environs that dot the hostile Gloomen Swamp and other waterways. His role is passing on information out of the Duchy and back to Uberstar.
  • As a Mastermind, Sebastian likes to utilize hirelings to do his dirty work for him. When he gets directly involved as a Rogue, he can advise allies with a ranged Help action as a bonus action. He carries a combination of shortsword, dagger, and crossbow. His main magical armament is his blackjack, which is capable of rendering victims unconscious for later interrogation.
  • The bottom of his square cut tumbler glass is a 'Lens of Deciphering' this magical item acts as a permanent comprehend languages, including deciphering coded messages from his handlers out of Starmorgan to pass onto the Regency.
