There's a raw desperation in the way he clings to life, his breaths coming in wet, labored gasps that echo with the metallic tang of blood. Even broken and bleeding, he carries the stubborn fire of a man who has faced down sorcery itself and lived long enough to regret it.

Lajos began as a loyal powder mage fighting alongside the coup's architects, his talent for manipulating gunpowder making him a formidable ally in the chaos of revolution. Yet his story ended almost as soon as it was glimpsed, struck down by the devastating sorcery of a Privileged during the palace assault. Mortally wounded with half an arm torn away and a horrific abdominal injury, he spent his final moments delivering crucial intelligence before slipping away, a grim reminder of the cost of toppling a king.
Description
A severely wounded man with pale, blood-drenched skin and a face twisted in agony, half of his right arm missing in a lengthwise tear of ragged flesh and bone, a massive melon-sized cavity ripped through his abdomen exposing dark gore. Blood trickles steadily from the corner of his mouth, staining his chin. He wears the remnants of a military uniform, fabric torn and saturated dark crimson. His presence is one of fading vitality, a once-strong fighter now reduced to labored breathing and desperate whispers.
