Clainin

Background

Clanin is an NPC and powerful mage. He once the court wizard of Lord British's Royal Court, replacing Nystul. He served in this capacity going back to at least 2001, around the time of the invasions of the Juka. After the departure of Lord British, Clainin was made a member of the Royal Council.

He was injured in the Blackrock explosion of Haven, and lay in a coma in New Haven for two years but suddenly awoke on 13 March 2009, only to face an attempt on his life.

Achievements

Among his notable achievements is finding a cure for the Royal Guard commandant, as played by each Shard's Event Moderator. He also appears to have been involved in Avery's investigation of the Followers of Armageddon. He also spoke at length with Inu the Crone, and appears to have earned the half-mad prophet's grudging respect.

Also a scholar, Clainin authored a minor work on Malas and on the concept of Facets.

Notes

Clainin has authored a scholarly work on Malas.

His name is often mis-spelled as "Clanin," even by the game manufacturers on occasion.

Dragging Clainin's body as it lay comatose at the Healer's of New Haven building could sometimes cause UO game client crashes.
