Nasher Alagondar
From NWN2Wiki
Lord Nasher Alagondar is an official campaign NPC who is the lord of the city of Neverwinter. Players with a high standing with him may join the Neverwinter Nine.
[edit] Official Campaign Information
The lord of Neverwinter is given this description:
- "Lord Nasher Alagondar is the ruler of Neverwinter and, given the size, prestige and relative prosperity of the city, his power is closer to that of a king despite his simple title. A veteran adventurer and a deadly swordsman in his youth, Nasher is now well into his later years but every bit as strong. A popular ruler, Nasher's pragmatic and decisive leadership has kept Neverwinter intact through plague and war."
He also is seemingly the Greycloak general, and also has a hand in court proceedings for some cases. He is held in contempt by Luskan (who would like to see him dead). It is unknown what the general populace think about him in the game, although likely he isn't thought of as a bad leader.
He predominately has little role in the PC's own activities but forces, like it or not, the hold of Crossroad Keep onto them to defend against the King of Shadows army. He generally rules with an even hand, and holds it to never back down to Luskan, who he has utter contempt for.
It is unknown at the end of the game what happens to Nasher, since after his defeat at Highcliff, he is said to be injured. It is likely he is fine, since he is a Faerun NPC and cannot be killed off by mere game technicalities. Since due to either ending, the Shadow army comes no where near Neverwinter, it is likely he retreated there.
[edit] Equipment
Nasher has several piece of adventuring equipment, which can be found/brought by the PC in the OC. This equipment was also found in NWN1 Hordes of the Underdark, where carrying the complete set would grant additional powers. Since one of the 4 pieces is missing in the OC (the gloves, which gave a skill boost to the abandoned Discipline skill) this feature is missing from the NWN2 OC.
[edit] Trivia
- Lord Nasher is voiced by Greg Martin.
- His appearance in NWN1 was noticeably different, as he had full greying hair and a handle-bar moustache, rather than his his current look of bald with a black goatee and crown.
