Description¶
A formerly obscure apothecary from the city of Ravenhelm, Jacques Manget was propelled to fame thanks to his tireless efforts to diagnose the lethal plague that decimated the city in late 570Y 4M.
Jacques had refused a Crown Summons, which would have all but sequestered him within some noble's mansion, and prevented any real progress towards the discovery of a cure. Aided by Republic-aligned forces, Jacques was able to determine the identity of the disease, confirming it to be Mormal Marrasmus, a lethal magical ailment.
After the liberation of the city by the REF, Jacques was put in charge of the relief effort to generate sufficient tincture of ichor to cure those infected by the plague. With the Republic's full financial support, the effort is well underway. Recent estimates suggest that as much as 30% of the infected population has had the tincture administered, a promising sign.
