Lex Gerus is a paladin player character (PC) hailing from Medua, a former Twin City that was destroyed by King Morbius's barbarian army. Lex's ultimate goal is to restore Medua to its former glory. He has a desire to be a local hero, but doesn't have any kind of a desire to save the universe as of now.
Both parents were both black dragonborn, and his father was a military man while the mother was a stay at home mom. Lex's father was heavy on honour and big on service to the city, Lex looked up to him because of that. Lex went into the military as a career because of his dad. Mother was quite traditional, but also strong in her own way. Lex's brother, Noz, died as a result of a delayed medicinal shipment that was attacked in the Badumunzes.
Lex is adventuring in search of an ancient artifact that can assist him in achieving vengeance for the city of Medua. Hoar gave him a full new life because of the injustice that Medua suffered, and it is Lex's duty to return the city to its former glory in whatever way he can.
Immediately, Lex's goals are to get rid of Morbius's sons (Maron, Saul, Cain, and Montrose Gentropsie), find out where the artifact is that Hoar encouraged him to attain, and organizing a militia or party to help him ultimately exact revenge on Morbius for his hand in Medua's downfall. During the Ravens of Amora campaign, the CocoNUTS went to Ziragzig in order to participate in one of King Morbius's grand auctions. After leaving the auction and chasing the mysterious thief of Skybreaker through the city, they clashed with the Ravens and the Gentropsie sons and eventually recovered Skybreaker with the help of
Rawinica Portral.
During this confrontation, King Morbius came out of the White Palace enraged by the theft of his prized possession. Quickly losing control of himself and reverting to his primal state (a blue dragon), Morbius fought the CocoNUTS but lost as his eldest son Maron betrayed him mid-battle. Lex said goodbye to Maron and honored him as an ally in his last moments before Hoar, their shared god, came to collect Maron.
After the CocoNUTS interrupted
Zola Shadowmend's plan and thwarted the Ravens, Lex swore an oath to Hoar to work against
Isvian, Lord of the Night to prevent more of the Night Lord's meddlesome schemes. For the moment, however, Hoar has allowed Lex to return to the Material Plane with Skybreaker in tow.
Medua's Restoration
Upon returning to Medua, Lex set out to reconstruct Medua. After receiving a note from
Justin Torosa, Lex ventured to Brekkin's Fall, a rite of passage for all new initiates into the Crimson Order.
