Nivex the Poisoner

Nivex the Poisoner was one of the lieutenants of the Broken Crown, a criminal organization in Port Valor. He was responsible for interrogating enemies of the organization, as well as many of the Broken Crown's more secretive activities.

Appearance
Nivex was a human man who frequently wore a cloak with a hood obscuring his features. He had a lanky build and many scars.

Personality
Nivex was a cold and calculating man, who had few qualms about torturing people and experimenting with poisons. He was considered the most frightening of the Broken Crown's lieutenants. He was also not particularly loyal, as he attempted to sell out Tyrian in exchange for his life.

Background
Nivex was one of the three lieutenants of the Broken Crown and one of the few with knowledge of the boss's identity. He frequented Port Valor's slums and operated most of his dealings out of a cellar near the intersection of Maple Street and Elm Street. When Tyrian was in need of the elimination of a political opponent, he often turned to Nivex for assistance, either in the form of poison or a well-executed stabbing. Once Tyrian was appointed as Corvus's advisor, Nivex began to supply Tyrian with darkbite venom to slip into the count's tea.

Broken Crown Arc
The Pog Champions learned of Nivex's existence through a ledger taken from a recruiter for the Broken Crown, listing him along with his fellow lieutenants and their typical hangouts. They pursued him in hopes of disrupting the Broken Crown's operations enough that its leaders would no longer bothering to pursue them for the carnage at the Twisted Nail. After making a truce with Kargath and eliminating the Siren, they turned their attentions to Nivex, whom they suspected was responsible for hiring the divination mages from Atemcester and ultimately assassinating Count Corvus. They found him, along with some of his henchmen, near his usual hangout and defeated him with some difficulty. When the tides turned against him, he attempted to bargain for his life in exchange for inside information about Tyrian. This offer was ultimately rejected, and Nivex was burned to cinders. After his death, one of Nivex's henchmen attempted to kill Jorah and Victor, whom Nivex had been interrogating and torturing, but both men were ultimately saved.

Goals
While Nivex frequently aided Tyrian in his machinations and worked toward the goals of the Broken Crown as an organization, it was implied that he had his own agenda as well. Whatever it was, it probably wasn't good for anyone.

Abilities
As his name implies, Nivex had an extensive knowledge of poisons and experimented on living subjects to create new ones. He was also skilled with daggers and wielded a dagger of poison, which was further enchanted with the ability to decode magically encoded messages between himself and Tyrian.
