Edwin

Backstory
Edwin, also known as "the man in fancy clothing," first appeared aboard the Maid Marian, the ship heading from Ghelsba to Port Rosencrantz. He was only seen briefly in the crewmen's quarters and on the top deck, using some sort of magic. Both during and after the time shift, he was no where to be found. The second time the heroes saw him was when the caravan rested for the night in Irathen Woods. As Prince Gilithor Edlam and the other heroes headed off into the woods to fight the bugbears, he followed after them shortly, but then turned around and went back to the camp. Upon the heroes' return to the camp, he disappeared.

The heroes were first formally introduced to Edwin in King Ranperre's Tomb, where after stumbling upon him in the king's burial chambers, Qazatri Wordspinner asked Edwin to accompany her. Edwin agreed to her favor under the belief that she was traveling alone, and if he should find out that she was lying, "the situation will get ugly." The two characters searched for treasure in the burial chamber and discovered a hidden room behind the statue of King Ranperre. In the hidden room they found only empty treasure chests, and upon their departure, they ran into Don Flor Valdez.
