The Man Who Remembered Nothing

Depicted moment

After Rage smashes open a cell in the Castle Avernus Crypts, Carver uses the dried black lily’s calm emotions magic on the frantic prisoner. The bald, goateed man identifies himself as Voss but claims to remember nothing beyond the feeling that he was once powerful. Human Siv watches from the nearby passage.

Artistic interpretation

The lily’s faint golden aura makes its calming magic visible for the illustration. The precise cell arrangement, broken bars, and Voss’s posture are interpretive staging of the recorded release.

Canonical status

Accepted Session 16 artwork and canonical visual reference for Voss’s public appearance during his amnesia: bald, lean, stern-featured, close-goateed, and dressed in worn prison clothing.

Inside a dark stone crypt, the huge barbarian Rage stands beside a cell whose iron bars he has bent and broken. The newly freed prisoner Voss sits barefoot among chains and bones, a lean bald man with a close black goatee and wary eyes. Carver kneels before him holding a dried black lily surrounded by gentle golden magic, while the slight human burglar Siv watches from the torchlit passage.
