| Dwarf cult-hunter; divine spellcaster
| |
| | |
| '''Balegrum''' is a dwarf from [[Goldenfields]] who joined [[Deez Nuts]] in [[Session 50 - Reforged in Hell, the Voyage Home (2026-06-14)|Session 50]] under extraordinary circumstances: his was the substitute soul that [[Lady Calera]] bound into the party when she could not retrieve [[Alexios]] from the Hells. He is the character now played by Richard.

| | |
| === Background ===
| |
| Balegrum was a farmer of [[Goldenfields]] until a dragon attack burned a grain store with his brother inside it. He spent the three years that followed hunting the [[Cult of the Dragon]] in vengeance, until he was ambushed and killed. His soul lingered in the Hells, where [[Lady Calera]] — unable to reclaim [[Alexios]], whose cries of "smite me!" repelled her — seized upon Balegrum as a willing substitute and bound him into [[Deez Nuts]] in Alexios's place under [[A Compact of restoration and continuance|the Compact]]. He arrived mid-battle against [[Arauthator]] with no ceremony and an easy grin: "Dragon fight! I think I like you people already."
| |
| | |
| === Abilities ===
| |
| Balegrum fights as a divine spellcaster, opening the rematch against Arauthator with a Guiding Bolt in the party's killing volley. Stepping into [[Alexios]]'s place, he took up that paladin's pact item — [[The Apostate's Rosary]] (holding ''Ray of Sickness'', ''Hold Person'', and ''Bestow Curse'') — and, like the rest of the reforged company, chose a [[Fiendish pact feats|fiendish pact feat]] as the price of being bound to life, along with the [[Dragon Harvest & Crafting|Monster Harvester]] benefit. ''(His patron deity is not yet firmly established — confirm with the DM.)''
