Archibald Everson (Hum Clr 15) is the charismatic leader of the Church of Pelor, honored by aristocrats and respected by peasants for bringing the comforting light of his patron to Obsidian Bay. He is a peaceful man, unwarlike in the extreme, who nonetheless participated in several youthful expeditions to the Drachensgrab to fight the humanoid death cult known as the Axes of Oblivion. His single greatest battle was in an ancient orcish burial mound, against the undead shaman G'gak Oduath who had established the cult.

The battle left him with a cursed and horribly weakened right arm that none of the church’s clerics could heal. He retired from adventuring to take an administrative role within the church. In the years that followed he steadily rose through the church’s hierarchy, eventually becoming its ‘Herald of the Sun Father' in CY 571, a position he has held ever since.

He has worked hard to maintain support among the aristocrats for the Church's work among the poor. He has watched the militarization of the church with some regret, but acknowledges that it is the will of Pelor.

Organizations

• Church of Pelor: The light of Pelor has long fallen on the uplifted faces of Obsidian Bay’s teeming masses, providing solace for the down-trodden masses, consul for the rich and powerful, and support for the adventurous and militant.
