Duke Leonard Centimus's page

Kalbio hurts you with Centimus.

When Kalbio eagerly sticks out his hand toward Centimus, the Duke barely extends his own, forcing the weaver to take a step closer in order to complete the handshake. "I have not, and unfortunately do not have the time to do his stories justice. Please accept my congratulations on your exaltation and my apologies for being in a hurry."

"Thank you, sir." The Duke says, "You may move on to your next task, I have no need of your services."

Once Tiber leaves, Centimus opens and reads the letter, then quickly burns it.

"Truer words and all, no?" The Duke answers Thalasou. "Though my reasons for supporting Eutropia are personal and ethical, I suspect most of my peers in the Senate have reasons that are political and selfish."

Big surprise: some of the writing in the AP makes little sense. Unfortunately, the interpretation that makes the most sense to me, means more work for you. I am ruling that completing your mission requires a completed influence of Pace and Centimus, not just "one or more successful Influence checks." You can roll Discovery after just one success, but mission completion requires full success.

@Delena: Double check the slides. Centimus' influence skills have alrady been discovered.

At the mention of a secret admirer, the Duke's skin reddens a little and he starts looking down at his wheelchair instead of at Delena. "Women are so wonderful. They're the most complex machines of all! I still haven't figured them out, though."

@Thalasou: The +4 discovery bonus is for using his weakness, which you don't know yet. Using a listed skill enables you to influence him at all.

@Delena: Please remember to move your token.

"Thank you." The Duke replies, running a hand along the arm of his wheelchair, as if polishing it. "I've made quite a few improvements to her myself. One day, I'll race her against a horse!"

A minute later, he smiles at Delena, "You're most kind! I wish others understood as well as you. Pray tell, which countess do you speak of?"

With a round face and a few extra pounds, the half-elf looks very different from the waifish ladies' man he used to be, before the accident that put him in a wheelchair.

Thalasou notices that the Duke treats his handicap as a challenge rather than an obstacle, and seems to enjoy it. He also shows a specific interest in Goka, where his great-grandfather originally hailed from.
