Greetings from the House of Al-Quadim!
Sadly, I do not know much. And much of what I do know
may be mistaken or misconstrued. But I shall attempt
to summarize what I do know for yourself and others
who care to listen to my inadequate tongue.
What little I do know is from my direct interaction
with Insomnia. I am certain others have more to offer
in his History.
Insomnia is a powerful Elemental. I believe of Death.
He was released from the control of one I believed
named Midian by some unknown entity. Since his
release, he has sporadically gone on rampages of death
and destruction. He is haughty- but has always treated
myself with honor and dignity. He is given to eloquent
rants, broken by seemingly random killing sprees. He
is able to Rift through Wards and Circles of Power,
though the presence of a Harmonic Rest seems to keep
him at bay- though this may change. His blows are
mighty and bring Death if they breach your armour and
Protectives. He is also able to Magically Sleep those
who draw his wrath. I have seen him walk about and not
harm anyone unless provoked. He has also allowed me to
retrieve those who have fallen under his wrath and to
bring them to safety to be healed. Whenever we came to
blows, I struck him for Magical damage. I am unaware
if any other form of damage affects his form. Oh yes,
he is very skilled in wielding a two-handed sword.
Insomnia is a worthy opponent. Intelligent, honorable
and skilled. Personally, I recommend avoiding direct
contact with Insomnia. If however, you are graced by
his immediate presence, I recommend being respectful
and not provoking or demeaning in your interactions. I
also recommend keeping a spare set of clothing
available at the Healer's Guild in case things go
badly for you.
I recommend seeking out myself and others who may know
more of his history. I shall make all attempts to
learn more of this information and to be available at
the next Gathering.
Thank you for your time.
Al-Hasan,
Squire Amra Asland al-Quadim of the House of
Al-Quadim.
