The Shattered Sword Wiki

Igan, once an aspiring wizard’s apprentice hailing from the region near Baldur’s Gate, experienced a lackluster career in the arcane arts. His talents as a wizard were middling at best. His sole remaining family connection was a beloved sister, until a fateful day when news reached him of her tragic demise at the hands of ruthless brigands.

Overwhelmed by grief and consumed by despair, Igan turned to the forbidden pages of his Master’s tomes in a desperate attempt to undo the irrevocable loss. With trembling hands, he invoked a dark and perilous ritual, summoning forth a malevolent demon from the depths of the Abyss. In his anguish, he sought to strike a sinister bargain, willing to offer anything to reclaim his sister from the clutches of death.

A sinister lower yugoloth answered his call, and a pact was forged. Igan was promised that which he longed for, but the price exacted was his unwavering servitude to the demon’s sinister machinations. Realizing the dire consequences of his impulsive actions, Igan now embarks on a relentless quest for knowledge and power, driven by a singular purpose: to save his own soul and that of his beloved sister, regardless of the dire sacrifices that may be demanded along the way.
