Carcaroth was never one for searching out the secrets of black magic. He
was one for looking for money in all the wrong places. He doesn't seem to

I looked through the characters we have, and I couldn't find one that
fit. Of course, we could always promote Inxi Hinzi, which could be
interesting in it's own right, or we could leave the slot blank.
