Thenmun

Thenmun was an intelligent lieutenant of Innarlith's city guard.

Description
He was very intelligent and ended up being poisoned by Willem Korvan, the deputy master-builder of Innarlith, as a result of pointing out too many mistakes in the reconstruction of the city walls.

History
Thenmun was a rising officer in the city guard of Innarlith in the late 1350s DR. The city-state of Innarlith was undergoing a project to rebuild the city walls at the time. This project had been assigned to the master-builder of Innarlith, Senator Inthelph. Inthelph was incompetent to complete the project, so he in turn recruited a Cormyrean engineer named Willem Korvan to help him complete it. Korvan, however, ended up making many mistakes in the complex mathematics for the reconstruction project and Thenmun had begun to notice them. Thenmun pointed out the mistakes and this hurt the reputation of Inthelph and Korvan. Inthelph was already being widely criticized for the wall reconstruction being overbudgeted and this added to the pressure on his office.

Korvan decided to poison Thenmun in the year 1358 DR. The poison resulted in Thenmun losing his sanity and being sent to a sanitarium in the fourth quarter of Innarlith. Eventually he was released from the sanitarium and put in the care of his mother, who took care of him like a baby. Korvan's poisoning of him was not discovered by the public.
