Lord Syward Quain is a nobleman of some influence within certain circles in and around Ebongate. A retired Cavalier of The Order of the Star, in service to Cereth, Syward has an unswerving sense of right and wrong, despite is rather unconventional, no-nonsense manner. He is a good man who brooks no compromise on what is right. He is a political enemy of Lord Almaric Felgate, who he terms a “schemer” and has now joined forces with Baronet Azuredee Silverthistle to try and combat his machinations in the city.
