Quinlan

"I know I'm insane, but when I'm sane, I have remorse. That means that I'm not irredeemable." - His speech to Marcus, his major-domo, when asked about his instability.
A mentally unstable Voyevoda that rules Petroburgh, though only when he wanders the Sky Island at night is he truly fearsome.
==History==
A wounded soldier on the battle field refused to die. He wandered the field and screamed, bleeding from several head wounds. Quinlan was discovered by Osric, who convinced him to kill the opposing War-Leader Araquesh, self-styled 'the Magnificent', for control of a sky island. Osric didn't expect him to come back alive. He didn't know who Araquesh was, due to the trauma, killed every officer in the opposing camp. The troops, without leader, surrendered. Quinlan, covered in blood and others flesh, returned and demanded his due.
Osric, while intimidated, retained control of the situation. He knew that he could only trust a few, and so decided that a blood-drenched man like Quinlan is easily slain by trickery. He gave Araquesh's old lands, much of the Sky Island of Petroburgh to Quinlan. Osric then demanded that the current ruler of the island, known to have been so deep in the pocket of Araquesh's bribery pants that he was often mistaken as a sock, step down in favor of Quinlan. Marcus was kept on as a major-domo.
Quinlan arrived to discover that Petroburgh didn't care about him. Araquesh had been something of a tyrant, as had the guy before him, and so on. They respected Marcus, at least, and Quinlan left much to him. Araquesh had divorced his wife and kept her and his daughter as maids as they both defied him several times. Quinlan married the daughter to improve his image and allowed the mother to do as she pleased.
Quinlan, while drawn into the Rebellion of the Dragon's Peaks, has promised his people that all they are doing is providing agricultural aid as the trade routes are radically changed.
Quinlan is known for his insanity at night. He wanders the halls of his house, a danger to all who meet him. The people fear that he will one day start a killing the people, rather than anyone who is stupid enough not to lock their rooms.
