Avery Sonshal
This wizard and alchemist had a young, plump-looking face, and had a bald head. He also had thick mutton chops. Avery was a member of the Council’s Eminent Fellowship of Healers,[1] and was the only licensed producer of smokepowder in the city of Baldur’s Gate.[2]
Customers would often call Avery by the namesake of his shop, Felogyr. However, Avery did not mind, and did not even correct them.[1]
Personality
Sonshal abhorred non-magical members of the Council’s Eminent Fellowship of Healers, for instance, surgeons and botanists.[1]
Relationships
Avery was the descendent of Felogyr Sonshal, who was the namesake of Felogyr’s Fireworks. He had a working relationship with the Church of Gond of Baldur’s Gate, as well as the Council of Four. He would sell them smokepowder to fulfil their inventive needs, though he sold fireworks to other customers.[1]
In 1482 DR, Avery was the proprietor of Felogyr’s Fireworks. Around this time, the disguised Imbralym Skoond came to his shop, ordered a large amount of fireworks, and bought everything he had in his store. Skoond, however, did not reveal his identity, and used the alias “Horus Kope”. The disguised mage also paid for the names of those who would supply Avery with his raw materials.[3]
