Armand Treshi

 is the head of the Mahaan house Treshi in Jrusar. He is also believed by Lord Ariks Eshteross to be a member of the Chandei Quorum. He hired Ira Wendagoth to experiment on Gurge Kisgregg to weaponize his lycanthropy. As an NPC, is played by Matthew Mercer.

Appearance
Armand is tall for a dwarf, dark, and handsome. He has short black wavy hair and a well-kept goatee. When seen by Gurge, he wore a fancy blue and gold sherwani coat with a buttoned high collar, shiny pants and a lot of jewelry. He wears a plantinum ring on his left thumb, which the soon-to-be-named Bells Hells were tasked by Ariks Eshteross to swap with an identical ring that had been enchanted to be traceable.

Personality
Armand values business and connections, and his house has a hand in many different guilds throughout the Oderan Wilds. Lord Eshteross suggested he might be interested in expanding his political power by sending expansions of Paragon's Call to locations beyond Jrusar.

Background
Armand is the head of house Treshi, and therefore involved with all of the house's affairs. While investigating the various mysteries and strange occurrences within the city of Jrusar, Bells Hells found that many of them lead to house Treshi. Armand was the one who hired Ira Wendagoth to experiment on Gurge Kisgregg, and house Treshi shut down the Crownset Caverns in the Underrush Mines which served as home to the Shade Mother. Additionally, the Treshi Gold Guild and Treshi House Mason Guild were implicated in other situations. Ariks Eshteross had long suspected Armand was a member of the Chandei Quorum, and decided that an upcoming ball held by the Quorum would be a good time to place a tracking ring on him to investigate his comings and goings. He entrusted the swapping of the ring to Bells Hells.

Armand Treshi attended the masquerade ball with Lady Emoth Kade as his date, however the two immediately split up to mingle with other people. During the Dance of the Crossroads, Dorian Storm and Fearne Calloway tried to get close to him to swap the rings. Fearne got to him first, and Imogen Temult learnt through her mind reading that Armand was suspicious of Fearne as another fey creature after his dealings with the Nightmare King. At the end of the dance, Armand span Fearne and she managed to pull his ring from his thumb as if by accident. At Imogen's urging, Fearne dropped it just as the dance crescendoed. Armand immediately began searching the floor, as Dorian kicked the real ring away. Dorian tried to pull Armand into the dance, but Armand noticed him kick the ring away and went toward the sound, ignoring him completely.

Imogen began crawling on the floor, pretending to search for the ring, as FCG collected the original ring and Dorian threw the tracking ring to Fearne. Armand confronted Imogen, demanding to know if she'd found the ring yet, and told her to keep looking. Fearne reached Imogen and slipped her the tracking ring which Imogen immediately gave to Armand, who accepted it churlishly and put it on.

Later that night, after Ashton Greymoore and General Ratanish's fight, Orlana Seshadri approached Gavis Aranda and Armand in turn, having a quick, intense conversation with each of them while looking at Ratanish.

After Lady Emoth Kade's capture and interrogation, Armand was implicated in the conspiracy, and the other leaders of his house turned against him. His home had been cleaned out and he was smuggled out of the city, heading southeast towards Bassuras, possibly seeking aid from Paragon's Call which is based there.

While in Bassuras, he sold his ring to a pawn shop called the River of Renewal. The shopkeeper, under the influence of Dusk's Suggestion, revealed Treshi had likely sought refuge in the Paragon's Call's fortress, the Seat of Disdain.

Orym and Laudna staked out the Seat of Disdain, and saw Treshi go to the roof to nervously smoke before returning inside.
