Wail all you want - we've got enough mouths to feed. We don't need your kind.

— Kepso, to Horys Crysst

Involvement

Kepso is stationed together with Fist Wearne and Fist Silena outside the South Span Checkpoint and is responsible for addressing local complaints. They form the first line of guard, preventing refugees from entering Baldur's Gate through Wyrm's Crossing. Silena and Kepso are arguing with Noira Crysst and Horus Crysst, who fruitlessly beg to let them in.

Like most other Fists at the checkpoint, Kepso abhors the presence of refugees. Unlike Silena, he does not mince words while expessing his opinion in their faces.
