Dhoulmagus

He's kinda big. He's pretty bad. He has an awful taste in clothing. He's Dhoulmagus, he's an odd-looking jester, and he's up to something sinister. His theft of Trodain's magical sceptre is the first clue, followed closely by the curse he places on King Trode and Princess Medea. Then he goes off and murders several people in the pursuit of some ultimate power. Such a pity.

As you've probably guessed, the chances are pretty good that our Hero and the rest of his party will have to battle the evil Dhoulmagus at least once in their travels. Expect arrogance.
