I just spent 5 minutes trying to think about Levi's voice in Attack on Titan and trying to recall if I recognized it as Mercer. Only to remember I'm only watching the subtitled version and have no idea what his English dub voice is like...
We've all been there.

Holy cow! how did I miss that?
https://forgottenrealms.fandom.com/wiki/Jander_Sunstar
"Jander was crucified and impaled on an iron tree at Haruman's Hill, while his body was kept functioning by the work of stirges that injected him with the blood of other companions who had met the same fate"
Now that's dark! Poor Jander.....
I'll have to track down that module, now....
I made a calculation Jander was brought to Ravenloft in 1098 DR / 457 BC, then in 1354 DR he followed Zariel to Avernus, which makes that in 713 BC, of course time in the Demiplane of Dread probably works differently and there are also the time warping Mists, I am just mentioning it.

In descent to Avernus the PCs may encounter him in the year 1494 DR which is 838 BC

He turned into a vampire in 598 DR which makes him an 896 year old vampire, if we add the years as a mortal he is over 1000 years old.

This canon cross relam thing is a bummer ( :soth: )

Sunstar that is... :)

Then again on another note by the Year of Twelve Warnings, 1494 DR, Jander pleaded with any passersby to cut him down and release him from his torment, so his cursed soul might move on elsewhere. So maybe his soul returned to Ravenloft, so maybe his personality and backstory could have been enriched with an unfortunate visit to Avernus and the horrors he witnessed there. Maybe he is also an expert by now on demon lore too and a demon hunter aswell as a vampire hunter.

So another 5th edition wish is bring Jander back!!!
