Revision as of 22:03, 29 August 2018

Lorenzo was a slaver from Shady Creek Run and the leader of the Iron Shepherds. As an NPC, Lorenzo was played by Matthew Mercer.

Description

Appearance

When encountered outside of the Sour Nest, Lorenzo appeared to be a human man, tall and brutish. His head was completely bald on top, revealing a scarred and tattooed design across one side that curled down into his chest. His thick brow hung over two cold, uncaring eyes. His lips were cracked and his mouth had a number of golden teeth in it.[1]

In his true form, Lorenzo's face looked similar, though he was much larger with blue skin, a beard, long hair, fangs, and two horns protruding out of his forehead.

Lorenzo wore armor made of studded leather that incorporated many straps and hooks in its design. It was designed to remind those who saw it of his profession.[2] He wielded a wicked glaive in combat, which grew to match his size.

Personality

Lorenzo was confident, restrained, and vengeful. Throughout the Mighty Nein's encounters with Lorenzo he proved to be brutish, prideful and sadistic, showing absolutely no redeeming qualities. His ambitions seemed to stretch no further than free meals and getting the chance to inflict pain on others. However, Lorenzo's pride and overconfidence ultimately led to his downfall.

Lorenzo and the Iron Shepherds first appeared when the group attacked the Mighty Nein overnight. Several members of the Iron Shepherds attacked Yasha, Fjord, and Jester during their watch away from camp. Under the cover of a Silence spell[3], the Iron Shepherds restrained the trio and brought them to Lorenzo, who apparently had the "sharp instinct" to come across this "sudden bounty."[4]

Quotations

  • "Looks like this one's got some spirit too. [chuckles] Our prospects are good with this find. Two divine-blood and one half-beast. I'm pleased. Toss them in with the others. We'll head back. Our cages are at capacity now."[7] (after Fjord, Jester, and Yasha are brought before him, bound and gagged)
  • "Respect." (after Mollymauk gave him his "final words" and spat in his face)
  • "The Iron Shepherds have a reputation. And I expect you to tell everyone you come across what happened here today. And the mistake it is to turn against us."[8]
  • "We're moving on! And if I see any of your faces again... well at least you'll be able to see your friend on the other side."[9] (Lorenzo's parting words to the remaining members of the Mighty Nein after their first encounter)
  • Fuck me indeed* [10]

Trivia

  • Based on the platter of of bones, strips of meat and skull found in Lorenzo's room by Nila, it is presumed that he ate the small captured children and infants that didnt survive or weren't fit for enslavement.
  • Matt planned for Lorenzo to escape from the Mighty Nein during their infiltration of the Sour Nest. This was thwarted by Beau's Stunning Strike (and a tactical mistake on Matt's part by not flying up on the prior turn, played off as Lorenzo's overconfidence) and he was slain instead.
