Sepulchure: Good Father, or Bad?
by Genoclysm
This article is inspired by speculation on a closely related subject. Thank you posers of Speculations and Theories for the idea.
As most readers know by now, Sepulchure has a daughter. Not all that much is actually known about her, but it has at least been shown how Sepulchure cared for her. Her childhood was... unconventional, to say the least. Was Sepulchure a good father for her, or was he lacking in fatherly care?
In DragonFable, she is never seen. He is always running about beating on heros, commanding armies, and directing lesser villains. Whether he has or even makes time to spend with his daughter is questionable. One thing we do know is that she was raised among the undead despite being alive. This means Sepulchure may have very well left it up to his (possibly unsanitary) skeletal minions to do the raising. Is this really a good upbringing?
Of course, Gravelyn seems to have thought highly of him. When he was destroyed in AdventureQuest Worlds, she was clearly distrought and angry. Obviously, they had some father-daughter bond or she probably would not have been so emotional. He must have done something right. Then there is also the unlife insurance she cashed in... Someone like Sepulchure would likely be arrogant enough to think they would never die. Why would he take out insurance if he was so confident in his continued existence, especially for a rate that was likely huge judging by the amount it was good for? It would seem his little girl came before his pride and wealth, and he made certain she would be taken care of financially should anything ever happen.
So, was Sepulchure a bad parent or was he a good parent? Personally, I cannot answer. Firstly, things like this are mostly shades of gray. Secondly, I would not feel right determining that myself when it isn't black or white. If anyone knows or has a right to decide such, it is Gravelyn. Perhaps someday she will tell us about it.
