Sepitus started out as a cursed man, vaguely inspired by the Tomb Colonists from Fallen London, with a Curse thrown in that would demand him make enemies allies, and constantly be amidst risk and conflict to survive. He started off as a simple sellsword and duelist, and well, quickly went from there. Ending up as a Knave, Assassin, and much more.
Can't have a thread for Sepitus without thanking Cat, Stranger, and Lannister, as well as a few others who shan't be named at this time. They're probably the majority of the moments here, and I can't thank them enough for the fun.
Props to DM Ironside, Abala, Vlaid, Halfbrood and a score others for all the amazing interactions among the DM team.

Again, a number of important people, who he might have even considered friends at one point, before betraying horribly.

Travelling with Merredith, Visimar and Acathos, frequently. At this point there was a Demonic plague coming about- from some Blackguard named Virgil.
(https://i.gyazo.com/782d70596a7d2c13261a87decdebfec1.jpg)
The same Virgil he hunted down and almost caught alone in the Mongrelwoods as many hunted her. He extorted her for all she was worth, and then as soon as he left, pointed others right at her. This was one of the moments that let up to him becoming a Knave

Travelling with his good friends even more. All over.

Meetings and deals with an odd fellow. The beginning of a long and strained friendship.

Besting trials with friends and allies, for pay this time.
(https://i.gyazo.com/275b1cbe1553ead31ae62790a089ccbf.jpg)
Another great interaction. He meant to follow through, too-

But due to him, that day never came.

MANYWORM (The aftermath of the introduction of a certain druid faction...)
(https://i.gyazo.com/6a53d0e927e00147a180ee4bc22d559c.jpg)
He made some more interesting friends. Though the relationships grew further strained, by fell deeds.
(https://i.gyazo.com/538369acc3bbdf919c6cd1c5632bc172.png)
Fell deeds scarce go unrewarded. (See loot section.)
(https://i.gyazo.com/b29309db537278c14109cb456701ed1e.png)
He fought in quiet a few dispensaries. And they were key to his greatest assassination, and also poetically, his end.
(https://i.gyazo.com/d9167f61c1facd0cd9bc66d30195f6f2.jpg)
He ventured with Annette Winespill occasionally. The woman who would eventually kill him. She could be a bit odd.

He wasn't always paid for murder. Sometimes just delivering some innocent mail.

(https://i.gyazo.com/8e8fa73b84dd43acb5d916cb0c216156.jpg)
In the employ of fell powers he enabled terrible and gratuitous deeds, looking on with little a care besides a good fight and a fair amount of groat.
(https://i.gyazo.com/c1f82f0bf5f5ec5e80bec2a24b33d64d.jpg)
For those same fell employers, quite a reaction started up...

Though the Gnomish Sibilant Slaver eventually died before he could get a new batch, and he though it better to discard the rest he'd not gotten around to with lack of further pay.

Sepitus worked alot with Jeor. And also was hired by alot of people. ALOT of people to go after the Arbiters at one point or another.

He ended up killing a few people. This one offered to him as a reward for service- and to sustain his cursed and dying form without the magics of Melkoth, Acathos, Hawthorne or the score of other dark mages that offered him succor at one point or another.

And then he finally got caught, at a dispensary no less. A poetic end from a poetic... poet?

The Red Queen's Kiss
A beautiful and potent blade that Sepitus wore proudly and openly for a good portion of his life. After all his wizardly allies were dead or betrayed, it was one of the few means he had of staving off the curse that was consuming him.

See you on the next!
Cool character from start to finish. I wish I'd gotten to see more of him, but you play in that crazy timeslot
Sepitus was a wonderful boogeyman. Anytime I saw him, I clenched up and checked around the area twice as hard as usual. Very well played!
Sepitus by far has been my favorite char of yours to interact with. The whole story we shared together is something I am happy to have gone through with you.
Some of these screenshots really give me a case of the feels. :'(
Consistent rhyming RPed lovingly. Kudos!
He robbed me of 24,000.
It upset me greatly.
