Bernard Dagon

Leader of the Arcanum. It is unknown how Bernard Dagon came to be in power in the Tower of Tongues. Some quietly speculate that he came to the position of Headmaster and High Arcanist through heinous use of Sentara, the magic of thought, emotion, and memory. However, few dispute his position, the logic being that if he were powerful enough to dupe the entire Tower, then he has every right to the role. No one can confirm or deny this theory, however. Practitioners on either side of the issue are called skeptics by the other. It's possible that he simply came to power thrugh a series of convenient events; it certainly wasn't on account of his charisma.

Dagon, despite all his shortcomings, is a cunning manipulator and strategist. His plots are many, and his failings few. His manner speaks of a somewhat helpless and pompous fob, but a fob doesn't cause nations to sway and kings to tremble.
