Nightshade
“I sell lessons. I teach upcoming artisans how to apply enchantments to items they craft. It's all very complicated. And, of course, I can't teach these techniques cheaply! It'd ruin the economy.
Nightshade is a male Elf who is hiding from the Shadow Keepers in the northern outpost of Kur Mountains, which he refers to as a "frozen hell-hole." He mentions that he was once part of a craftsman guild based in Sinoca. Other members of his guild included Syndra, Gribburn ,and Malgath. Poe was not a guild member, but worked alongside Nightshade for a time. Nightshade is not his real name.

“Ah, Nightshade, I'd forgotten about him. He was a good business partner, but then he went and got a guild of human assassins after him. Tell him that his concern is appreciated, but misplaced. We've both moved on. I'm going to stay here: free food and a bed, and nobody's trying to kill me!

“Nightshade sent you? Well, at least he didn't come after me himself. He'd die! Tell him I'm fine. I'm just infected with lycanthropy. I'm a werewolf now. I've just got to get this under control, and if I succeed, I'll come find him.
