Ed's Notes: Arguably the best courier in the city himself, and from the Palace of the Jester, he meets with clients and manages pretty much all of the other couriers in the city, matching them up with prospective clients. The Bells of Baphomet curse causes him to hear the bells from that Abyssal temple CONSTANTLY, 24/7. Which was driving his insane. His armor, a "gift" from Shemeshka, mutes this, almost completely when his helmet's visor is down.
