Tulgord Vise

Tulgord Vise was the Mortal Sword of the Sisters (Soliel and Poliel) and one of the Nehemothanai, the avowed hunters of Bauchelain and Korbal Broach.Crack'd Pot Trail, Chapter 2 
A proud and righteous man, he had a narrow, scarred face with black close-set eyes. His thin and ragged voice was said to have been the result of a failed D'rek assassination attempt.Blood Follows, Section 9
== In Blood Follows==
After a string of grisly murders shocked the city of Lamentable Moll, Tulgord vowed to track down and slay the killer.Blood Follows, Section 9 On the last night of the killings he swore a blood-vow and was consecrated by the High Priestess of the Sisters, filling him with formidable power. He tracked the killer to Fishermonger's Round and burst through the necromancer Bauchelain's wards. Unfortunately for Tulgard, his horse had not been blessed. Bauchelain caused the horse to fall sending the Mortal Sword head first into a stone barrow where he lay trapped and unconscious.Blood Follows, Section 19 
== In Crack'd Pot Trail==
Tulgord and the other Nehemothanai joined a caravan following in the footsteps of Bauchelain and Korbal Broach on the Cracked Pot Trail across the Great Dry. Halfway across the desolate plateau the group ran out of food. The armed contingent of the caravan, which included Tulgord, decided that the group's "useless" artists would better serve as meals for the rest. Tulgord beheaded a sensible poet who recommended they instead eat the knights' horses beginning the process.Crack'd Pot Trail, Chapter 3 When it was decided that the artists would perform in competition to see which would be chosen for the day's meal, Tulgord suffered through innumerable confusing songs and tales. Famed poet Nifty Gum broke down at the site of his dead, reanimated follower Sellup and asked for someone to "end it", Tulgord Vise mistook it for a plea to end Nifty's own life and so he stabbed him through the chest.Crack'd Pot Trail, Chapter 6
As the caravan came to the end of the Great Dry, the poet Avas Didion Flicker told a story to the already agitated group of Nehemothanai and Chanters that hinted that their quarry, the necromancers, were the true passengers in the reclusive Dantoc Calmpositis' carriage. Violence ensued and the carriage collided with the horse of Steck Marynd causing his crossbow to misfire into Tulgord's mount. The horse threw off the Mortal Sword directly into the path of the mule drawn carriage. Tulgord was crushed under the wheels before his weapon belt caught on the carriage's underside and he was dragged over a three hundred foot cliff. Afterwards there was no sign of his body amidst the wreckage below.Crack'd Pot Trail, Chapter 6
==In The Fiends of Nightmaria==
Tulgord Vise ultimately survived the dire events of the Cracked Pot Trail and arrived safely at the city of Farrog. Sometime near the conclusion of the 'Festival of Flowers and Sunny Days', the Mortal Sword was arrested on the orders of the new King of Farrog, the usurper, regicide, and necromancer, Bauchelain the First. Tulgord (together with six other Cracked Pot Trail survivors - i.e., Apto Canavalian, Brash Phluster, Tiny Chanter, Flea Chanter, Midge Chanter, and Steck Marynd) was taken to a torture chamber in the crypts of the Royal Palace of Farrog. There, the seven survivors were tortured in rotation on the rack by the Royal Torturer, Binfun, in preparation for their execution.The Fiends of Nightmaria, Section 4 Ultimately, the prisoners were able to escape with the aid of Seneschal Shartorial Infelance, who was smitten with Steck Marynd.The Fiends of Nightmaria, Section 10The Fiends of Nightmaria, Section 11 She returned their weapons and they were soon wandering the dungeon tunnels.The Fiends of Nightmaria, Section 14
At one point, Tulgord and the others had a mayhem-filled encounter with a group of thieves--the 'Party of Five'--who were searching the tunnels for their imprisoned Guild Mistress, Dam Loudly Heer.The Fiends of Nightmaria, Section 17 The Mortal Sword's legs were both broken in the brawl and Steck Marynd was forced to carry him until the Seneschal brought them to the Royal Apothecary for some badly-needed healing. But they were ambushed there by thirty-two of Bauchelain's demons.The Fiends of Nightmaria, Section 20 Apto fled and did not return.The Fiends of Nightmaria, Section 23 After surviving the melee, healing vials returned Tulgord to his feet. The group moved on to confront Bauchelain and Korbal Broach in their throne room while Brash Phluster lingered behind to leave the palace on his own.The Fiends of Nightmaria, Section 24 
Tulgord and the five others found their way to the throne room of the Royal Palace where the Mortal Sword kicked in the doors, breaking the nose of the room's sole occupant, Demon Prince Flail Their Limbs. The irritated demon informed the Nehemothanai that they were too late--Bauchelain and Korbal Broach had already fled before the oncoming Nightmarian army, which planned to sack the city. Before leaving the room, the prince warned the group that Bauchelain had left behind a dangerous demonic mouse on the throne as his heir. Determined to destroy any minion of the necromancer, the skeptical Nehemothanai ignored the advice and prepared to rush the mouse. When the doors to the throne room slammed all around them, a startled Steck Marynd accidentally loosed his quarrel at the mouse and unleashed mayhem.The Fiends of Nightmaria, Section 27 From the street outside, Brash saw the Royal Palace collapse.The Fiends of Nightmaria, Section 28 The ultimate fate of Tulgord and the others was not given.
