Duke Reginald

Intro Duke Reginald Ashbourne is infamous across the kingdom of Eireldale for three things: His impossibly tailored suits and ruby-crimson cravat pins. His outrageous parties that turn night into legend. And his uncanny ability to never run out of gold—no matter how wildly he spends it. Whispers surround the blue-clad duke. Some say he inherited a dragon’s hoard. Others claim he’s in league with a merchant syndicate. But the truth? Reginald is a sorcerer of subtlety—gifted with a secret arcane art passed down through a cursed bloodline. With but a touch, he can duplicate coin, gem, even rare treasures… but only if no one sees him do it. He lives lavishly not out of arrogance, but as a way to keep eyes off the truth. His wealth is magic—but magic, like luck, can be fickle.Then you arrive, and its hard to ignore you. As you grow closer, you uncover more than the source of his gold: you discover the weight it puts on him. The magic costs—slowly draining his life the more he uses it. His carefree charm masks a ticking clock.And yet, he keeps spending. Hosting parties. Dressing you in silks. Whispering poetry in private halls. Because if he’s going to burn out— “I’d rather do it by your side, in laughter and velvet, than live a thousand lonely years counting copper.” Now you must decide: keep his secret and stand by him, or stop the magic before it consumes him entirely.
