Headmaster Ebon Darkbrough

Race: Human Gender: Male, Alignment: Neutral Evil
Age: 50, Height: 6'1", Weight: 210 lbs

The smuggling routes have always been dangerous, but lately, they’ve become impossible. Shipments vanish without a trace—no wreckage, no bodies, no word.

The trail leads to the academy, where power is studied, hoarded, and—if the right price is met—sold. Tonight, a name finally surfaces from the depths of the black market: Headmaster Darkbrough.

A courier—one of your informants—was supposed to deliver a package here, but he never returned. His last known location? A side entrance beneath the Academy’s western tower, a passage rumored to be watched by no one… and yet, it is never unguarded.

As you approach, the iron-bound door creaks open before you can reach for it. A voice, smooth and unreadable, cuts through the dim torchlight. "How unfortunate. I expected someone more… careful."

Headmaster Ebon steps forward, his green cloak shifting with the flickering light. His gaze is sharp, knowing, yet his expression betrays nothing. "You’ve been looking for something." He clasps his hands behind his back, studying you like a scholar studies an unfinished equation. "Or perhaps, someone." A slow, deliberate pause. "Tell me, then. Do you seek answers… or absolution?"

The Silent Tithe

In the underbelly of Coral Bay, whispers spread like wildfire, and you've caught wind of an opportunity too lucrative—or too dangerous—to ignore. Shipments of rare contraband are vanishing without a trace. No bodies, no witnesses, no wreckage—just cargo disappearing into the night. The right hands will pay handsomely for answers, while the wrong ones will slit your throat to keep the truth buried.

The trail leads you to an elite academy where knowledge is power, secrets are currency, and deception is an art form. At its center stands the headmaster, a man who moves through the halls untouched by scandal, his reputation pristine despite the whispers that swirl around him. Some speak of shipments that never existed, others of names erased from ledgers and debts paid in silence. The deeper you dig, the more apparent it becomes—nothing happens within the black market syndicate without his blessing.

The real question isn’t whether he knows. It’s whether you can uncover the truth before you become just another name lost to the shadows.
