Gerhard

Flesh wizard for hire

A thin man with once dark, and now graying, hair. His body has extra layers of skin showing signs that he was once a heavier man, but has lost weight rapidly - or possibly had a wasting sickness. When not working on a job he prefers the company of others and can often be found a a tavern or market. His manner is jovial and welcoming to those he meets. Once hired for a job his goal is to accomplish the job as quick as possible, often taking dangerous short cuts to finish earlier.

As a magician he is skilled in the arts of enchanting carcasses. He is not a necromancer and the flesh is not embodied by any spirit or entity. Rather he holds the flesh together and manipulates it as a puppet master. Unlike a puppeteer the strings on his puppets can travel several miles from him. He can shape the flesh to his needs, including merging it with an already existing being. If hard pressed he will often merge any nearby flesh with his own to protect himself. As the flesh rots it becomes less useful to him and no manner of preservation has increased this duration.
