Hondir

Hondir is a goblin researcher residing in Bassuras with a specialization in ley lines and Ruidus. He is a member of the Grim Verity.

As an NPC, Hondir is portrayed by Matthew Mercer.

Appearance
Hondir is a goblin with a black and gray Van Dyke beard. When Bells Hells first met him, he was wearing a formal suit covered in dust. He wore a large monocle with a chain hanging from it, the other end attached to the lapel of his suit jacket.

Personality
Hondir tends to be on edge due to the Gray Assassins being after him; his bunker is stuffed with weapons and explosives and is likened to the hideaway of a doomsday prepper. Otherwise, he is intelligent and passionate about his work, and is willing to provide his knowledge for a cause.

Background
Hondir was previously part of the Aydinlan Seminary and is a member of the Grim Verity. His area of research is leylines. While still there, he met Liliana Temult, who was a member of a study concerning dreams of a red storm. He, and many others who were researching similar topics, began to lose their funding. When they continued their work with private funding, they began to be targeted by the Gray Assassins.

Hondir came into contact with Birdie and Oleander Calloway and began working with them, and with Ira Wendagoth, on a device to be activated on an upcoming apogee solstice to prevent a possible catastrophe concerning Ruidus's appearance in the Feywild.

Campaign 3
Birdie brought Bells Hells to meet Hondir, who was hiding in a secret chamber below one of Bassuras's storm cisterns. He provided the party with considerable background on what Birdie and Olly were hoping to achieve, and joined the group as they left the city to check on the device.
