Maarten St. James

Maarten St. James is the most talented artificer in Ghostpointe, and the city's most prominent architect. St. James resides in the city's clocktower, which his grandmother constructed. He is in charge of its maintenance, and rarely leaves the tower much in his old age. During the Festival of the Crimson Moon, St. James was murdered by Olaf Iverson, who tossed him into the clocktower's gears and prevented it from chiming the hour, leading the Last Warning to his location. Maarten was the evening's tenth victim, and the last one needed for Olaf Iverson to begin the ritual to bring Zsyzak the Many-Handed into the world, a task he thankfully failed at.

Victim's Verse

Now judgement comes for all...at last!

Trivia
