A small, winged hollyphant investigator who appears in Baldur's Gate and interacts with the party; she is noted for pipe-smoking, a fondness for fine brandy, and a skeptical attitude toward Bhaalist claims. In these sessions she is observed by Ilmryn at the Chionthar Princess casino and elsewhere has been described as appearing at the Eomane House after the Eomane incident and noting she has the party under observation despite limited jurisdiction.
A hollyphant investigator attached to Baldur’s Gate: a grizzled, whiskey-soaked celestial who combines skeptical, world-weary attitude with a stubborn investigative instinct. She arrives on scenes with blunt questions, a fondness for vices, and a talent for cutting through ritualized explanations; despite her cynicism she possesses the experience to recognize deep, metaphysical corruption when it appears. Sources note she treats many claims as paperwork problems until evidence proves otherwise, and that she will ultimately pursue rot she perceives as real even if she grumbles the whole way.
