Herschel

A Giff man that the party rescued from the caves exposed by an earthquake just outside of Slatestack, he had been trapped between a cloaker and a cave-in until the party was able to kill the creature. Responsible for a supply cache for the 6th Expeditionary Fleet of the Giff Navy, he is committed to his post until ordered otherwise, even if it means death. He happily gave the party a personal item as thanks for their help, although he stiffened a bit at their awkward confession to having taken some of his cache; only relaxing slightly upon their return.
He seemed to have a significant ideological divide with Therrik, who could not fathom why Herschel was insistent on holding his post.  They found middle ground in that he would, at the very least, move the cache into his workshop, as the subterranean chamber is now much harder to reach.
