Trenton Deis was the cold-hearted assassin hired by Castomira Brangwin to kill both Lucaine Pyramides and Catarin deSangre around the Wars of Succession. Lucaine and Trenton first met face to face at the Battle of Beggar's Arch. Lucaine defeated him in single combat and, seeing Deis unfit for a warrior's death, denied him his blade and instead condemned him to a death upon the gallows the following dawn. Deis escaped his jailers, and his contract upon the young Kasharian swordsman became a personal vendetta.
Deis later encountered Lucaine, unarmed, as the mercenary was writing the last of his love poems to Catarin. He first broke Pyramides' sword, then blinded him, and finally called upon his underlings hiding in the surrounding area to pierce Lucaine with spears. Whether he burned Pyramides alive or Pyramides himself summoned arcane flames is unknown, but what is known is that by the end of the affair, he was dead by Trenton's hands.
Deis later attended a dinner party with his client Castomira at the manor of Count Xenius, an event to which Catarin was also invited. When he revealed that it was he who had slain Lucaine, the princess leapt across the table with a dessert fork. The utensil connected dead-on with one of the arteries of the assassin's throat, and in this way did Catarin avenge the death of her love.
