Biography
Misson to Tanto
As the Sezuans were frightened about the possibility of an impending war with Jura, Durian was employed, as the ambassador of Sezuan, to enter diplomatic talks with the island nation of Tanto, which lay between Sezuan and Jura. He brought no weapons to the meeting, but over the course of it he gradually took on a more threatening stance, and ended it by invading Tanto. He therefore became very powerful. (AUDIO: The Pointed Hand, WC: The Minister of Chance: Prologue)
Having completed his invasion of Tanto, Durian moved into the King of Tanto's castle. (AUDIO: The Broken World)
Visit from the Witch Prime
Worried that this might be the start of a war with Jura, the Witch Prime visited Durian in Tanto. Worried by Durian's popularity back in Sezuan, he considered killing Durian, but advised by Lord Rathem, he decided to attempt to ride Durian's popularity and make him the governor of Tanto. The Witch Prime left Rathem to watch over Durian. (AUDIO: The Broken World)
Capture of Cantha
Durian heard of professor Cantha, a strange man, and a girl who seemed to know of her. He told his men to go looking for them.
They returned having caught her, and Durian threatened her into working on a rocket for him that could kill many, many people. (AUDIO: The Broken World)
Return to Sezuan and attempt on his life
Durian returned to Sezuan for a short while, and was surrounded by the press, who asked him many questions. Neither the Witch Prime nor the Seer were happy about this. The Witch Prime managed to convince the Seer that Durian needed to be assassinated, and so they hired Polichar to assassinate him. Unfortunately, Lord Rathem had teamed up with Durian, and returned to Sezuan along with him, and so the assassination attempt was unsuccessful. Durian and Rathem then blamed the assassination attempt on Jura, so as to start a war. The Witch Prime was powerless to stop them. (AUDIO: Paludin Fields)
