[Tancred]

Irenicus... I liked him because he never, ever gave up. He never did anything less than tackle any problem head-on and never ever had any doubt that he would win out. Ever. That's why he was probably one of the greatest of the good; and, likewise, why he's the worst of the bad. There's nothing but a concentrated knot of hatred and determination within him; there's something cold about him that makes him seem far, far more sinister and far more evil than his two counterparts in the BG big evil dude world, who acted like humans and could be understood. I like Irenicus. He's one of the finest villains I've come across in a computer game, at least.
