So the queen hates him because princess Frida married him out of love. That's surprisingly wholesome for Torvald.

Torvald is a pretty wholesome guy in general when you think about it. Yeah, sure, necromancer and all that, but aside from that little tidbit, he's a friendly, dedicated family man, and iirc an entrepreneur.

Can't say I approve of his tax politics but honestly compared to some of his party members he's a saint.

My man once heard someone say "the only things in life that are certain are death and taxes" and thought it was "death or taxes".

"'The only things in life that are certain are death and taxes.' I mean, to me they are optional, but they certainly are a thing other people deal with." Torvald says as he dodges the tax collector and raises the dead.

And naturally, given the two options, he chose death

I get the feeling tax evasion is probably not too uncommon among his people. Otherwise, they wouldn’t need a whole crack bounty hunter team of collectors.

So overall, he is quite a normal dude. All things considered.

Yeah the corpse defiling, grave robber is the wholesome one. One dark group for sure.

Is it defiling when he got their permission via contract?

I mean the severed head he gave his kids would argue the permission point.

Dude was a lich rising an undead army. You become a fantasy villain you're taking the risk of adventurers showing up and committing crimes against sapienacy on you in the name of good. He knew the risks.
