Czerny really, despite the two band camp twinks being great, the standout character for me this event.
I just love how well-crafted he is. You can just feel that whoever wrote him knew very well how to make a interesting and engaging character.
He's Infected, so he is by fated doomed to a life of poverty and anonymity despite his musical genius. But with just pure excellence and a small amount of targeted ass-kissing he manages to claw himself into position as one of Leithanien's greatest composers and musicians.
He is actively dying. He's throwing his farewell consert in all haste because he knows that if he waits he will be too sick to do so. Oripathy is merciless. Czerny might live on then for another decade, but won't be able to perform, and for a man that lives and breathes music, his life would be over.
He is... A character. He is unfailingly rude when he can get away with it, critiques easily but accurately and is only diplomatic as absolutely needed. But he is never cruel and never unfair in his critique. And it is obvious that he lives for music alone and is willing to overlook anything for its sake.
He is also deeply, deeply angry at his fate, that every noble still looks down on him despite his excellence and the fact that his infection will rob him of a long and succesful life as a master composer. He is so angry that he's boiling inside.
But he hides it very well.
Until you put him on the battlefield. As a musical maestro one might think that Czerny would be all lyrical, talking about the musicality of war or lamenting its cruelty. But no
On the battlefield, away from all need to fake politeness, Czerny goes full angry German shouting.
And it's great.
He is also, and there's no other way to really put this, a big damn hero.
When he was told that his band twinks were infested by the power and mind of the Witch King, my man did not hesitate at all to match his musical genius against that of the greatest Caster, Musician and Tyrant that has ever lived.
He listened to the Witch King's music, which almost killed him. He then went home, sat at his piano, put down a bucket to catch the blood and spent the entire night matching his musical skill to the Witch King's, composing a counter-score to foil His' plans and try to pull His influence from the two boys and into Czerny himself. My man was completely ready to sacrifice his own life to save the two boys.
And then having not slept at all and fought the Witch King music-to-music the entire night and coughed up about twice his body-weight in blood, Czerny goes "Yeah, I'm ready to play a concert now" because that's just how concert hall pianists are.
And then he takes to the battlefield dressed to the nines and wielding what looks like some demented one-man orchestra Frankencreation to accompany his angry German shouting.
He's just so great.

I honestly can't remember if I've made this post already but I'll just do it again, since Czerny is a pretty popular musician there's most definitely Leithanians or classical music enjoyers in general in Rhodes Island that have to know he is. It'd be like rocking up to your local hospital and seeing Weird Al.
I'd imagine a medical staff that's a fan of his casually checking up on him like "Your progress has been great! If you keep up with the medicine and treatment I'm sure it'll get better ^^" While also internally arguing on wether or not they should ask him to sign their vinyl records.
