Insifinius

A black dragonborn death cleric and student of all things death-related. His past is largely a mystery, but he once served as a medic in the Sydonian military and has since opened a freelance medical examiner's office in the merchant district of Dragonwatch. During his studies into death and the beyond, he discovered a rod of orcish design (bearing ancient elven runes of death) that allows him to speak with the dead once a day, though each use of it risks turning the corpse into a violent zombie when the spell ends. He has used the rod to help him investigate murders for the constabulary, including the recent death of a goliath warrior who washed up on the avron banks. After using the rod, the goliath named Aros became an awakened undead and joined him, lending his considerable fighting skills to the group. Some time ago, he also hired an orcish scout named Dura to help him hunt down the killers he investigated. He was also joined by the warlock Vonzorn, who also came to town around the same time as Aros' death.
