These Investigative Mages embark on their investigative path for a reason, commonly related to the disappearance of their family members.
This Investigative Mage was no exception; his mentor and his mentor's mentor had both vanished due to this affair.
He vividly remembered the scene when he met this investigator: pale-faced with heavy bags under his eyes, looking as if he hadn't had a good night's sleep in a long time, fragile and sensitive, starting at the slightest rustle of wind or grass.
He was willing to sell the intelligence he held not solely for the generous bounty Gaven had offered, but also because he sought to extract from Gaven information about the Half-Plane of Fear.
In his own words, his investigations had already drawn the attention of the Half-Plane of Fear, and he was not far from disappearing himself. There might be no chance for another meeting, or rather, their next encounter might take place within the Half-Plane of Fear they were investigating.
