mask-maker and performer. Taught Tom to make and perform in masks in 876.

Lightprophet, Gordon (hm) ?-?, ?

a prognosticator who taught Tom to predict the future in 908. Gordon's origins are shrouded in mystery, though it is probable that his surname was chosen as an antithesis to the Dark Prophets (though little if anything is known of their existence or place in history and the future, as an offshoot of the Prophet Movement of 399-404). Gordon may be descended from one of prophet groups from that period, who used skills similar to psychohistory.

Nestor? (hm) ?-?, Plist

servant of Citman clan.

Stemin? (hm) 847-?, Toobay

Taught Tom to read faces in 882, for various purposes such as entertaining at fairs; though he referred to it as "reading minds."

Trailblaze, Joxx (hm) ?-?, Plist

co-founder of the Syndicate?

Woodrat, Carver (hm) 879-?, First River Forest

freelance messenger and bandit; semi-recluse. Mostly keeps to himself, living somewhere in First River Forest. There are various entrances to his home, though few if anyone actually knows where they are. His home itself is completely hidden. There are, however, any number of ways to contact him, or at least leave messages for him. (He rarely if ever uses t-mail.) If the price is right, and if he's in the mood, he'll do just about any kind of job for just about anyone, regardless of what side they're on. If any.
