Jan of Osek, also known as "The Vicar" is an fictional character in Kingdom Come: Deliverance. In the hierarchy of the Catholic Church, a Vicar, meaning "Vicarious", has the full power to act on behalf of his superior, Archbishop Zbignev.
He only appears for the duration of his related quest Waldensians, and leaves the Skalitz-Sasau District as soon as it is completed.
He is accompanied by his two bodyguards at all time, and resides in the presbytery of the church for the duration of the quest.
The Vicar is based on an historical figure: Jan of Předbořice.
Biography[]
He is visiting the region to investigate rumors of a heretic sect, which Sir Hanush is not best pleased about. During Waldensians, Hanush asks Henry to go to Uzhitz in order to speed up the investigation, as he suspects the search for a Waldensians is a ruse for the Archbishop to seize his estates.
During the investigation, Henry will discover that there is actually a sect of Waldensians secretly practicing their religion in Uzhitz, and can either report them to the Vicar or convince them to escape.
Although the Vicar seems to be a soft-spoken and gentle man, he is utterly ruthless in his pursuit to catch those who he feels are a blight on the church, and has no qualms about putting anyone suspect to torture and death by burning. He will not tolerate any discussion regarding any faith other than the one truth faith of the Holy Roman Catholic Church.
Having found the truth about the secret Waldensian sect, Henry has three options - convince them to flee before the Vicar finds them, tell the Vicar where they are, or ensure the Vicar is ... "taken care of".
