Connects to: 19.31.08, 29.14.49 and 40.20.
Somewhere in the accordion-haunted Alleys of the Woman in Red (in Jahur), a gnome named Lunfar runs a grocery. Even by gnomish standards, he looks unusual. He shaves his black beard so it is divided in three parts, and his eyes bulge from their sockets when he becomes excited. Some in Jahur know that he trades illicit maps during his after-hours. Lunfar is one of the Holy Fools’ Barking Dogs, meaning that he is tasked with spreading hidden information.
Many of Lunfar’s illegal maps are charts of shipping lanes in the Sea of Typhoons, caravan routes through the Burning Lands and mining complexes in the Tantalus Mountains. But a surprising number are of secret, far-off places, including the Society of Engineers’ maps of Shuttered’s Undercity, elvish maps of the Kingswood and the dungeons below Hyfalls (40.20). He prefers to trade a map for a map, but certainly accepts coins and gems.
Connections:
- Lunfar has family in Shuttered who help him acquire maps.
- He is interested in acquiring a map of the Black Ziggurat (18.26)
Hooks
- Many maps Lunfar sells are contraband, of course. But what kind of maps do the Jahuri elite want to keep out of public eye?
- Who else is a Barking Dog? What other titles do the Holy Fools have?
- Which map is his most prized?
