Visceris is a character in Pillars of Eternity. He can be found southwest of The Goose and Fox in the Copperlane district of Defiance Bay.
Background[ | ]
As you near, you feel a vibrant history contained in the essence of this man's soul. Voices from its past seem to call out to you.
You see a man crosses his arms and sticks his chin out. Moonlight and torchlight color his face. "Bullshit."
The elf standing in front of him wears a panicked expression. "Are you mad? I've seen it!"
"Ah-ha!" the first man cries, raising a triumphant finger. "You just said you'd only heard it."
The elf blinks. "What in the name of Galawain's beasts does that have to do with anything?"
"You said you'd only heard it. Now you're telling me it's a monster the size of two aumaua with blood-dyed fur." The man takes a step closer to the elf. "And now I'm saying you're a liar, Doran."
Doran sputters. "Gods, Visceris, who cares what it looks like? It's a rabid wolf. You saw what it did to the sheep-" The elf throws up both of his hands, shaking his head. "You want to stay out here all night to see the thing yourself, have it your way. I'm getting out of here."
"Fine."
"All right."
"Good."
The elf storms off, casting one last glance over his shoulder as he disappears down a hill. The man sets off in the other direction, a sword in one hand and a torch in the other. Within minutes, he comes to a broken paddock where a dozen sheep lie dead, their throats torn and their innards scattered across the ground. It is not the work of a normal predator.
Something crunches through the dry grass.
Visceris spins but sees nothing. He raises his torch higher.
This time, a rustling sounds from behind him, near the paddock. He turns again to see a wolf. It's not nearly as large as Doran had sworn, and while its fur is matted with red around its throat and paws, the rest of the elf's description has proven to be a rather lurid exaggeration. Typical.
Visceris takes some small satisfaction in this even while the wolf lunges for him, its jaws foaming and eyes rolling.
