- Keeper Waldur Crove - warden of the Crove Asylum (deceased)

General
The Keepers were responsible for summoning a strange, powerful, invisible creature called "the
Spawn of Yog-Sothoth", which then killed Baskerwhel and Marshan, and began destroying various sites around town, seemingly to be searching for something. It was determined that the creature is most likely hunting its summoners in order to capture their essence, which was used in the ritual to summon it. It eventually was also able to kill Baskerwhel and Hyve, but was eventually bound the
Star Moit when the Fellowship used an unconscious Myre as a lure.
