"Brother. Sisters. Cousins! Brave, humble, human folk."
―Onor Hileriss[src]


Onor Hileriss is a Marcurian solicitor and candidate for the position of commissioner of the City Watch. A member of the National Front for Faith and Family, his public platform includes human supremacy, the oppression and elimination of magicals, and greater autonomy for Marcuria via cooperation with the Azadi. More privately, he advocates strict patriarchal gender roles, and holds anti-theist views.



In Dreamfall Chapters, Hileriss crosses paths with both Kian Alvane and Zoë Castillo on multiple occasions. The first of these occurs during a private National Front rally, which Kian infiltrates. A second rally is witnessed by Zoë, as she searches for The Rooster and Kitten. A day later, Onor interacts directly with Zoë when she interrupts his attempts to bring down Abnaxus’ Abode in the City Green. They cross paths once again when Hileriss calls down the Azadi to take down Roper Klacks’ fingerlings performance as Zoë watches.

In Book Five of the game, Kian encounters Onor once again, as the latter, emboldened by the increasingly open anti-magical sentiment in Marcuria, leads an attempt to burn Crow to death in a pyre. Thanks to Kian’s quick thinking, Hileriss’ attempts backfire, causing him to be engulfed in flames.

Trivia[]

  • Onor Hileriss’ office, On my Onor, can be seen in Western Marcuria. The signage at the office identifies him as an accountant, in apparent contradiction of his statements.
  • Onor’s father, Hubert Hileriss, also a solicitor, previously served on the Marcuria Council. According to Onor, he abandoned his family after beginning an affair with a Dolmari woman, a source of continuing embarrassment for him.
