Farak, the Most Powerful Mage's page

Fear not fellow Pathfinders!

Even though there are those who claim the Shadow Lodge has completed their task and are thus no longer needed we must all remain vigilant. We must be both willing and able to save our companions from Phrasma's eternal grasp.

In the event that the worst happens we must once again not turn our backs on our companions but be willing to travel to hell itself to recover them.

I will not be stopped in my obligations to my fellow Pathfinders just because the Society thinks the vault they are in is impenetrable.

I will also not be stopped by mere facts, or reason, for I am Farak, the Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom!

Perhaps Farak, the Most Powerful Mage in ALL Absalom was not clear the first time.

I demoralize my foes. I have found this to be a quite effective strategy.

Now, Do not question my prowess again! I may have retired from active duty as a Pathfinder, but I've still got it.

I am Farak, the Most Powerful Mage in ALL Absalom, do not be fooled by that pretender Thorne. The fact that my enemies quake in fear at the mere mention of my name has been key to many of the successes I have brought to the Pathfinder Society.

Welcome! I am Farak the Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom, don't be fooled by that Pretender Thorne, he has nothing on me.

I'm happy to see another kindred soul who not only believes in the Pathfinder Society but understands that it must be guarded against the abuses of those who would turn it to their own profit.

Does it have to be my own? I like PainLord's character:

Thorne, the Most Powerful Mage ** spoiler omitted **

There's a fun guy to play with :)

How dare you! HOW DARE YOU!!!

Don't be fooled by that wretched imposter. I am Farak, the Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom! Thorne, the pretender, is nothing.

I am Farak, the Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom!

Unfortunately I don't work as well mechanically as I used to so I am retired at level 12.

Wizard! ...
WIZARD! ...

How dare you!?! I am no wizard, I am the most powerful mage in all Absalom!

1d20 + 42 ⇒ (15) + 42 = 57 Intimidate

I, Farak, the Most Powerful Mage in all Absalom sadly cannot attend. I'm trusting the rest of you to make this event as awesome as possible.

Don't disappoint me.

I am Farak, the Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom!

Seeing Pathfinders better themselves so as to best ensure their companions survival pleases me to no end.

If there is anything I can do to help, feel free to let me know, but do not dally Drenge has assigned me to go participate in the Ruby Pheonix Tournament. I tried telling him it was long past, but arguing with the man was of no use. So next month I depart for the Dragon Empire, we'll see what happens when I arrive there.

Arriving at Lady Gabrielle d'Apcher's home is a small immaculate white cedar box. Inside is a short note on light green paper with gold filigree.

Dear Lady 'Apcher,
I would like to apologize for borrowing one of your hair-pins without permission during our mission to the Portal of the Sacred Rune, but at the time I feared for our safety and had nothing else at hand to hold danger at bay. Please allow me to make amends.

Beneath the note is a pair of extremely fashionable Tian hair-pins, in a flattering color.

I assure you that they have all the functionality of your other hair-pins as well. Assuming you accept my apology I would also be pleased to have your company at the opera in Oppara in one month's time.

I, Farak, the Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom wish to remind my fellow compatriots of our role in the society. While I normally speak in boasts and grandure, I must be completely serious for a few minutes as I speak of our purpose.

It is not to undermine the Decemvirate, or complain of inequities. While many of these issues continue to plague us we have made great strides forward in these matters and it is time for us to shine as best we can.

Speak gloriously of our calling to all who can hear. Let everybody around you know that you will not allow a Pathfinder to suffer.

---

It is with great sadness that I must speak of my recent failures in this department. I let my drive for glory and fame blind me to the suffering of my companions.

First, when dealing with the Rats of Round Mountain I let my companion The Grey Reek step into a trap. As I held his lifeless body in my arms, mere seconds later, I unfurled a scroll and attempted to grasp hold if his soul and prevent it form leaving Golarion. Unfortunately my voice faltered and The Grey Reek was no more. I will carry this shame upon my soul until the say I am judged. For this was the first time I had let a Pathfinder die.

Secondly when the fate of the Society hang in the balance during the assault on the Grand Convocation. I saw my gnomish companion, a powerful sorcerer I had met only hours before, under assault by terrible foes. I chose to focus my efforts on destroying the infernal contraption that threatened the Society and merely watched as my companion fell to the darkness. I wanted the glory of saving the society and was worried about it's survival as a whole, but in doing so I lost track of what was most important and my companion paid the ultimate price. This is a second stain upon my soul.

I fear another may doom me to eternal damnation. So I will attempt to redeem myself by reminding us all to not let your fellow Pathfinders suffer.

Dedicate yourself to these tasks. Protect your companions with swords, spells, your own body if necessary. Show no mercy to those who threaten your allies and always give it your fullest. Hold nothing back.

Wizard... WIZARD!?!

How dare you.

I assure you that not even that pretender Throne is a wizard.

I feel sullied just having my name used near that word, let alone be called one.

Do not be fooled by that pretender Throne, he has nothing on me. I am Farak, the Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom

Announcing Farak, the most Powerful Mage in All Absalom
*Trumpet/Fanfare*

Harold, My Herald comes with me everywhere. Despite having him for over half my Pathfinding career, I don't believe he has once accomplished anything useful. He does however understand the perfect emphasis to use when speaking my full name, and for that I keep him around.

My Porter is used to lug around messy things my fellow Pathfinders might find in our travels. When one makes sure to have the latest Absolonian fashions, one must also take care to avoid sullying them in the tombs and other unpleasant places Pathfinders tend to go.

My Chronicler has been my loyal companion the longest. He takes notes and writes up my chronicles for me after the adventures. He is an immense time saver. I don't know what I would do if forced to write the pages and pages of these reports myself the Decemvirate is always asking for. Every once in awhile he will even answer a question as to what's going on. Of course he's a bit pompous and refuses to answer more than one question at a time. Last time I tried I think he pointed out that I was the Greatest Mage in All Absalom not him. I did not speak with him for the rest of the week, but I believe we are again on amiable terms.

Fortunately as the Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom it is a trivial task for me to use my magical powers to keep them safe from harm. Not once have my followers been harmed. (Although they did flee from that Dragon)

I frequently forget about my followers, but they don't seem to mind too much, just being in my presence is good enough for them. Whenever I want them, they always seem to be on hand though. What more could one ask for?

I am Farak, the most powerful mage in all Absalom. Do not be fooled by that pretender Thorne.

Do not be fooled by that pretender Thorne. He has nothing on me.

The most powerful mage in Absalom? But can you summon fire into your hands like this...

Don't be fooled by that pretender Thorne, he has nothing on me. I am Farak, the Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom.

Pitiful mortals, bound to your class prisons. Do not allow your self to be defined by your class.

Only through transcending such definitions have I become The Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom!

(Do not be fooled by pretenders such as Thorne)

DELICIOUS!

This is the reason to be the most powerful mage in all Absalom and not of somewhere else.

Do not be fooled by the pretender Thorne. I, Farak, am the Most Powerful Mage in All Absalom.

While Thorne has come to see the flaws in the Decemvirate's plan he reveals himself to be nothing but a coward by abandoning his companions.

Thorne, I am glad that you have seen the light and realized that the Decemvirate mistreats its members and does a poor job unifying Pathfinders under a common flag. Abandoning your friends and companions is not the way to salvation though.
