# Haddon — "Scribe" Haddon, the Scholar
**Look:** Neat grey beard, spectacles, scholar's robe, ink-stained fingers; stiff left hand and black branching scars show under difficult magic.
**Vibe:** Fussy, helpful academic; compulsively explains true theory while lying about what the theory was used to do.
- Best liar at the cult table; prepared the group's alibi before Orenn's body was cold
- Met Dace as an unnamed intermediary and recorded the Harath dossier in his ciphered journal
- Knows Xarrul is fiendish and the Order summoned it; claims it remains bound and the House caused the failure
- Rebinding: holds the true-name station; Dalla and Rennt must hold the other two
- If one station ends without a completed handoff, each other active ritualist takes 2d6 psychic damage and makes DC 14 CON
- Xarrul attacks his resolve with Bren and his abandoned maxim: **the living weight comes first**
- Reserve Oil of Etherealness in his ritual case

- Fifteen years ago he entered a collapsing circle to save Orenn. Orenn's faith in that old courage was the last restraint on him.
