Ferrenan is a vampire and prince of House Crandon who held a keep called Blacksplinter near the western edge of what was former the Great Kingdom. He is also a skilled necromancer who supports Prince Carwend mostly because he fears Szeffrin.
Description
Appearance
The vampire looks like a man in his mid-thirties, with black hair and brown eyes. He has very smooth skin and elegant features and is known for his impeccable manners.[1]
Personality
"Ferrenan is a controlled, rakish vampire."[1] He is known for his dark humor, which often includes jokes about his own vampirism, and other self-deprecating jokes. He tends to enjoy eating garlic in front of people, to display his unusual immunity and freak them out. Despite his suave air, Ferrenan thinks of humans as nothing but cattle for him to use as he sees fit. He does hold a bit of respect for powerful mages, but is contemptuous of paladins and priests. He "fears no one and nothing—except Duke Szeffrin."[1]
Abilities
Str:18/76, Int: 18, Cha:17[1]
Equipment and possessions
Ferrenan doesn't carry many magical items, but he uses a cloak of displacement and a ring of protection +3.[1] He also has used a wish from a ring, to bolster the defenses of Blacksplinter, and owns "a staff of power with a few charges left."[1]
Relationships
Enemies
Duke Szeffrin is Ferrenan's great-great-grand nephew.[1]
