Dr. Phillippe Delapont

Dr. Phillippe Delapont is a wizard (transmuter), anatomist, and alchemical philsopher who lives in Borca. He is a Professor of Alchemy and Anatomy at the Academe d'Richemulot. Raised as the child of Comte Simon Delapont and his wife Moira Delapont of Dementlieu, Phillipe eventually learned he was adopted as a newborn. In truth, his biological parents were Kristina Dilisnya Leskovich and Edgar Leskovich, both murdered by her brother Ivan Dilisnya. Phillipe secretly plots against his uncle from his home in Richemulot and hopes to destroy him by developing an antidote for Borrowed Time.

Phillipe is in poor health due to being poisoned as an infant, although he has partially compensated for this with the aid of magical items. A riding accident as a child left him unable to walk without using a cane.

Phillipe has a toad familiar named Cadmus, a homunculus named Gerast and two alchemical children constructs that appear to be common guard dogs. Phillipe has failed multiple Powers Check from the use of coagulants, giving him an encyclopedic knowledge of dead men's secrets at the cost of an addiction to Memory Coagulants. This addiction causes a rapid decline in his intelligence should he go more than three days without a memory coagulant.
