Yakor Know-it-All

By Mike Dawson

Note! This is a fan contribution. The information may be contradicted by official material.

Sage of Lhankor Mhy the Seeker

An overweening prodigy and godi sent to Lhankor Mhy from his home among the Dundealos, Yakor hid from Lunar assassins in the secret section of the Boldhome Knowledge temple. There he learned forbidden knowledge that horrified him. He drinks to forget and fills his head with erotic poetry.
Hiding out, Yakor moved through several warbands, and learned to call winds, ride and fight. Underground in Nochet, his observant eye found the Book of Desecration and the Moon Darkening Stone.
Arnsand Blowdown guards Yakor, as does the Gray Wind Daimon and the Tornado Shield. They all ride on Yakor's fine horses.
While rescuing his friend Helatr from Lunar execution, Yakor took a gold dagger from the dead captors. His companion Dushi stole the Leaden Eye for him.
He spoke of Prophecy to Isidlian the Wise and earned the Dwarf's respect.
In the Tower of Ivory Yakor learned three Words of Power from the Scroll of Burning Light and bound the Green Lizard's Tongue to his aid.
