DEBRIEF REPORT ON ORRIN AGENT ACTING IN ESHARIAN LANDS.
Name: Uberto Volpe
Alias: Gallimaufry
History: It appears that Uberto Volpe (or Gallimaufry, henceforward referred to as G for ease of reference) was originally a native Vitorran - there are a number of Volpes there. From there we have a number of references to G attempting to enter the universities of Hashat as a young man - apparently he had a overwhelming obsession with blood. 1) After a number of rejections we were able to trace his path over land to Orrium: that is when his trail goes cold.
Recent Activity: Where to start?! Much recent chaos in the Royalty has been attributed to the jester, but trying to separate real reports from the noise is… difficult to say the least. It is undeniable that he was a peerless agent of chaos at any rate.
Death: A number of Throne-aligned agents were able to deal with G in Hashat. Death has been confirmed.
Closing Remarks: If only we could have found some of this sooner!!!

It was the old fight again: at least one Orrin village in every handful gets it around this time of year. Enough of Gallimaufry's story had made it back to Orrium that they had pretty decent picture of what the Jester's role was in the great conflict between them and Esharia. Given the way he died – killing the Empress Alba – he was always going to be a controversial figure. Within a generation or two this had solidified into two different camps: those who believed that Gallimaufry was a hero, and the Queen a martyr; and those who believed that the jester was a villain who robbed Orrium of its most visible unifier. The latter camp had a habit of burning him in effigy.
So two camps of Orrin youths wrestle and beat each other into the dry dirt, lit by the burning figure of a straw jester. Some would say that it shows duty and thought in remembering those long past; others that the obsession with the past is what holding the Orrin people back. The more observant would say that youths will always find excuses to have a good scrap. This last would probably make the jester proud, wherever he is.
