Gamespy have taken an in-depth look at some of the important NPCs in Shadows of Undrentide. Here's an example:
Xanos
There are not many half-orcs who become sorcerers ... and if Xanos Messarmos has his way, he will be one of the few, as well as one of the most powerful and successful. Xanos came to Drogan's school seeking one thing, and one thing only: a future laden with gold and adventure. It's quite obvious that he does not seek to do so with a sorcerer's usual charm, either. Xanos gets along poorly with his fellow students, being both arrogant and selfish. He has little tolerance for the slow of mind or weak of will, and claims not to care what others think of him ... yet spends a lot of time making sure others note his intelligence and power. If Xanos does good during his future as an adventurer, as Drogan must hope, it will surely be accidental. |
