Blind Silas

Blind Silas
Role: Information Broker of Kigum Undercity
Description: Silas is an ancient figure, his age unknown even to the longest-lived residents of Kigum. He sits in a throne of rusted gears and discarded wires deep within the Undercity. Though his eyes are milky-white and sightless, he seems to perceive everything that happens within the city's walls. He deals exclusively in secrets—buying them, selling them, and sometimes hoarding them for reasons only he understands.
The Hook: Parties seeking forbidden knowledge or the location of a hidden entrance to the upper city often end up at Silas's feet. He never asks for gold; he asks for a secret of equal value to the one he provides. "Tell me something that no one else knows," he whispers, "and I will tell you what you need to hear."
