Ramath Lane

Ramath’s intentions for leaving are not fuelled by a declining profit margin, rather Ramath is an agent of the Rushlight Society ; an organization that seeks to further humanity as the Varisia’s dominant race. A hierarchical society, the Society uses terrorism, coercion and above all, violence to achieve its ends. When a cache of precious mithral and adamantine was discovered in the Copperstone Hills by agents of the Society, Ramath was sent to Devene, to meet with Lugas (a craftsman sympathetic to their cause), and take delivery of the weapons the craftsman was tasked with forging. Whilst waiting for the consignment, Ramath adopted the guise of a profit-seeking trader caught up in Devene's most recent mining boom. But before Ramath could take delivery of the forged weapons Lugas was killed in a fire which destroyed his smithy. Suspecting foul play, the Society has sent the agent who discovered the abandoned mine to Devene. He also disappeared, a fact unknown to Ramath (the unfortunate agent’s fate can be discovered in the Abandoned Mine.) The Rushlight Society’s third agent Gaddin Vaas has only recently arrived, and believes that Ramath has sold the weapons for his own gains. Gaddin has threatened Ramath with a fate worse than death should he not procure the weapons soon. Ramath knows he must find evidence of crafted weapons soon or accept a life forever on the run, constantly looking over his shoulder
Both Cully and Ramath are indifferent (Base DC15), but are so wrapped up in their own affairs that they have taken the events in Devene at face value. They have heard the bulk of the rumors presented on the rumor table. They know nothing about the cult of Dagon or its actions
Development: Ramath can sometimes be found talking heatedly with Gaddin Vaas at the Black Skull Inn or in the Cauchemar Tavern. In addition to this, Ramath may be also found walking near the ruins of Lugas’ Smithy. If questioned, Ramath claims that he is on his daily walk (False). If pressed, he admits that he is looking for a consignment of weapons that Ramath paid for, but were never delivered. Ramath is alluding to the weapons forged by Lugas. Ramath offers to reward anyone finding the weapons, but in actual fact has no money to pay them with. Ramath will betray them to Gaddin Vaas as soon as the weapons are recovered.
Events of the night of the raid
Ramath and Gaddin had planned to go to the Smithy as a final attempt to find the crafted weapons, Gaddin being very skeptical of Ramath's lack of evidence. While on their way to Lugas' Smithy they stumble into some of the Cultists who are likewise trying to stay hidden - both groups agree to forget they saw each other, but of course neither actually do and plan to act on the occurance as soon as possible. Ramath remembers and fetches fireworks supplies from the Devene Trading Post to serve as a distraction. While setting the supplies up, the Cultists leap out of the shadows en masse and Ramath sets off the contraption, launching firecrackers into buildings and causing the fires seen all over town.
At this point they are attacked and Gaddin is beaten and captured, but Ramath escapes to hide in the Smithy.
