Description

[edit | edit source]

The owner of the Nine of Swords, Carenoc, is known far and wide, not just in the Free City itself, but all across the central Flanaess. He has a reputation as a craftsman of exceptional quality weapons, and typically has at least a dozen masterwork weapons on display for his customers to view.[1]

Cerenoc does not have a right hand. He lost it in a duel with Kelanen, Lord of Swords, the hero-deity patron of swordsmen and swordplay. Despite losing the battle and having a disability, Cerenoc gained great respect for Kelanen when losing the duel and dedicated his life to him. He remains a talented bladesmith and duelist.[1]

Rumors and Legends
