At this point he is not a thrall and has some retention over his mind. We learn some of his background as well as some info on [[The Court of Strahd]]. This is where we learn the key to controlling his undead is his last name > [!timeline|t-r] **Second Encounter** *[[Session 15 - 10-01-2026]]* > While traveling to [[The Wizard of Wines]], we came across him counting his death shepherds. Only thing of note we learned was that the assassination attempt was successful on [[Volenta Popofsky]], however she will be revived within a week.
