Curse you Martin, you made me feel like writing all this up. and I haven't even fleshed out Flimtwizzle's background yet!
Name: Flimtwizzle Niveus
Alter Ego's: None, frequently calls himself "the Black" though.
Affiliations: Leader of a presumably terrorist organization called "The Infernal Conquest". Also member of the guild "Talon of Arathor", that seems to be legit though. Further investigation could be a good idea.
Race: Gnome
Gender: Male
Age: 47 Years old.
Height: 90 cm
Weight: 35 kg
Hair Color and Style: Bald
Eye Color: Brown
Distinguishing Features: Full black beard. Often seen wearing purple robes and a black wizard hat he refers to as the "Crown of Oblivion". Has a habit of loudly making his presence known to the general public. Seems to have a pre-written speech he likes to randomly share with the crowd. In general: pretty hard to miss.
Known accomplices: Most notably a Gnome named Spunkenflunk Flunkadunk (See file 22.5) that seems to be his second in command. The two also employ a variety of demonic entities who seem to be of little importance. Refer to the file on The Infernal Conquest for more information.
Prior Arrests: Insulting the Crown of Stormwind - Insulting the Crown of Ironforge - Attempted robbery - Robbery - Treason - Murder - Leading a terrorist organization - Resisting Arrest - Summoning of a demonic entity - Tax evasion
Prior Convictions: None.
Background: Niveus's history has been intensively researched. The Niveus family is a somewhat renowned family of engineers, but Flimtwizzle never seemed to take to their tinkering ways. Interrogations of his former babysitter revealed that his current way of life started in his early teens. Though he displayed a great talent for the magical arts, he seemed to enjoy using his abilities to torture young and small animals and even some of his lesser-liked and weaker peers. He was also a coward and a sneak, flattering the stronger boys to their face and muttering dark incantations to them when their back was turned.
At his thirteenth birthday he was sent to Dalaran to train to become a mage, as it was thought he had it in him to become a powerful Archmage. He quickly fell in with the wrong crowd there, and eye witnesses report that he was often seen in the darker parts of the city that are traditionally associated with the Warlock community.
A former roommate of his, a Gnome named Glomp Blimpbolt, claims that he was often sent out of the room by Niveus and subsequently locked out. Niveus would not open the door until hours later, and a strong smell of sulfur would be present in the room. On one such occasion, coincidentally Niveus's nineteenth birthday, he never opened the door again, and when academy personnel broke down the door he was nowhere to be found.
No more intel on Niveus could be gathered about the next twenty-eight years, though some odd events, such as the sudden and very violent death of his parents, siblings and grandmother and the destruction of the family workshop seem to point at his involvement. (the statement of a Night Elf called Tenarion Moonfury involved Niveus confessing the murders of his family, but it is unknown if Moonfury can be trusted)
Then, out of thin air, he appeared in Coldridge Valley, Dun Morogh, doing odd jobs for the inhabitants of the valley. He had by then employed Flunkadunk as his assistant. Before long he was traveling the two continents and growing more powerful as a warlock by the day, summoning demonic minions with ease.
He seems to be growing less sane by the day too. He founded the terrorist organization called The Infernal Conquest, seemingly dedicated to putting him in charge of some post-apocalyptic empire that spans the globe. He currently perceives the Night Elves as his main enemy and the only thing stopping him from achieving this goal. The reasons for this are unknown, but there must be some truth in this. Inquiries at Darnassus haven't yielded any results, whether this is because they don't know or don't want to tell us remains to be investigated.
Meanwhile, he's still happily plotting away. Sources claim that he has some way to influence some powerful people, and it is true that every time he has been arrested someone has gotten him off the hook. Sources point to the High Tinkerer of the Gnomes as a likely suspect for this.
In closing: Sane or insane, this Gnome remains a force worthy of keeping a close eye on. For the most part his plots turn up useless, but if he should stumble upon a working plan for some reason, we could well be in trouble.
