Q&A with Korina Vercingetorix
#1
Scribe Maxis Thalymdian of Oghma: First of all, I would like to thank you for allowing us the opportunity to interview one of the most prominent members of the fearsome Black Unicorn Equites of Thay, besides Tribune Mirella. To start off our interview, may I have your full name?
Korina: Thanks for thinking I'm important. My full title is Korina Vercingetorix, daughter of Ephasia Vercingetorix the Slaver, Sergeant of the Ebony Riders, and Blackguard of Loviatar.
Q: What made you want to join the Black Unicorns?
A: Well, when I was a little girl growing up in Bezantur, there was a parade, and most prominent in the parade was a Thayan Knight, standing proud beside his Red Wizard. I looked on in awe from the crowd, enamored with the confidence he exuded and the pride in his gaze. I said to myself, "I bet I could kick his ass." I never saw that Knight again, and I figured I could catch five hundred slaves to become a knight, too. Then I saw one of the black unicorns tethered to a post in Tyraturos and thought I'd look fearsome atop that thing, so I joined them up in Thralgard Keep.
Q: How do you enjoy your role in the Black Unicorn Equites?
A: It's fucking awesome! I get to ride around on a unicorn and stab shit. What could possibly be better than that?
Q: I see. And is that all you do in the Black Unicorn Equites?
A: I also whip the recruits when they fuck up.
Q: Do you have a black unicorn? What's her name?
A: Yeah, all of us have black unicorns. Mine is named Black Rose Immortal.
Q: That's an unusual name for a unicorn, or anything for that matter. Does this name have any special significance to you?
A: Nah, it just sounded pretty. Flows off the tongue, don't it?
Q: Uh, sure. Let's move on to religion. You mentioned you were a blackguard of Loviatar. Why her? Why not Lloth, like the other Drow in your legion?
A: Lloth wouldn't have me, the cold bitch.
Q: Ah. Why do you blaspheme the goddess of your fellow legionnaires?
A: Well, that brings me to my larger feelings on religion. Fuck religion, and fucks the gods and goddesses. Most of 'em could be butchered by the effort of any Zulkir. If any of the so-called deities these mortals worship really wants to fuck with me, I'll cut it into bits.
Q: What stood out about Loviatar?
A: I used to follow Talos, the god of destruction, but it feels more holy to follow the Goddess of Pain.
Q: You wouldn't happen to be a sadist, then?
A: I am, indeed, a sadist.
Q: Moving on, you mentioned you grew up in Bezantur. What was that like?
A: I'm sure all children had a similar childhood. I beat the shit out of the leader of a gang of bullies after he told this other kid he fought "like a girl", and then I became the leader of that gang. The kid he beat up became my boyfriend. For years I thought I was a lesbian because my boyfriend was the biggest pussy I knew.
Q: What was he like?
A: He was a fucking poet.
Q: Who fought like a girl?
A: He fucking wishes he fought like a girl!
Q: Terrific, that leads nicely to romance! You said you thought you were a lesbian? What are you--
A: Don't get any weird ideas, Scribe.
Q: I assure you, I'm a eunich. The thought hadn't cross my mind. Now then, what are you looking in a possible woman or man?
A: That depends on who's askin'! Are you asking?
Q: ...Yes?
A: Then I ain't lookin'.
Q: Great. Thanks for volunteering! We'll keep in touch.
