Description

Immilzin Dey keeps a bare stone room at the fifth waystation where, for the price of one honest answer, a traveller can sleep a single night without dreaming. She is githzerai, raised in a monastery that treats the mind as a room that can be swept, and she came out to the Sablewaste because something here has been getting into people's sleep and she means to find out what. Use her as a safe haven that charges an awkward price, as a calm source of exposition between hard travel days, or as the fi

Appearance

Ash-skinned and sharp-featured, head shaved to grey stubble, dressed in undyed wool and barefoot even on hot stone. The hollows under her eyes are the kind no amount of rest repairs.

Motives

Map the thing that has been walking through sleepers on the Sablewaste road, and sweep it out. She is methodical, unhurried and entirely unafraid, which unsettles the waystation staff far more than panic would.

Personality

Pauses for a long moment before answering any question, every time, as though checking it for something hidden inside. Will not sit down while a guest is still standing.
