Professor Imber Falkin

Professor Imber Falkin leads a group of Morgrave University professors who are working on an encyclopedia called Perilous Khorvaire in which they catalogue all the dangers of the continent, natural or supernatural, monstrous or mundane. They are always looking for firsthand accounts, sketches, maps, and samples for their research. In return, they offer small payment and tokens that can be turned in for expert help in the areas of History, Arcana, Religion, Nature, Medicine, or any other subject of study useful to adventurers and explorers. Characters are paid relative to the information they bring in:
• Rumor or folklore: 1 sovereign.
• Firsthand account: 5 sovereigns.
• Sketch or map: 1 galifar.
• Small sample (Troll tooth, ooze slime, bark from a living tree, or similar): 5-20 galifars. If the sample is stuck inside a character’s body, the professors will remove it for free.
• Large sample (must be well preserved. Naga corpse, horrid animal skeleton, or similar): 50-100 galifars.
For "friends of the university", the professors at Morgrave University will help a character make an appropriate check with a +10 bonus. Such research takes 1d8 days.

In Our Story:

Uses:

Professor Falkin has a depth of knowledge of danger that is unparalleled in Breland, and she is the preeminate researcher on the subject. If presented with adequate facts, she may be able to speak directly to the capabilities, limitations, or weaknesses of a single creature or magical disturbance.

Interactions with other NPCs:

Though cooly cordial with her monsterous colleagues, Imber views them as creatures of study. She will often ask them questions on their habits as if she were speaking with an animal (using terminology and the like). Of the "standard-race" creatures on staff, she is probably the most hated by the "monsterous races". It is important to note that although she is very obviously prejudiced, she is never overtly mean.
