Thoreau Lionett

 is a human vineyard owner and winemaker, and the father of Beauregard Lionett. As an NPC, is played by Matthew Mercer.

Appearance
Thoreau was described by his daughter Beauregard Lionett as being a little bit shorter and slightly pudgy with a rounded face. He has dark hair with a widow's peak and brown eyes, with a unibrow that he's let go as he ages.

Personality
Beau described him as cranky and superstitious.

Background
Thoreau was "a poor bastard" when he got a hint from a fortuneteller to go and buy derelict farm property on the north side of Kamordah in the hills and grow grapes on it, and that it would make him rich. The family is now very well off. Thoreau believes that the fortuneteller may return someday and demand payment for her advice.

Thoreau receives a Sending from Jester pretending to be Archivist Zeenoth, telling him that Beau is now an Expositor and asking if anything weird has happened. He responds that everything's fine. The next day he is contacted again by Jester using a spooky voice, and he responds with some confusion, asking if they've met and who this is. Jester responds that everything he is doing is being watched, which seems to terrify him.

Thoreau receives another Sending from Jester, asking him how things are going and if he heeded her previous warnings, and telling him "we" are keeping eyes on you. He tells her that everything is fine, he thanks her for helping with the competition, and says that she needs to let him know what she needs.

The Mighty Nein went to meet with Thoreau after discovering a link between the woman that told Thoreau how to make his fortune with the woman that cursed Nott.

Relationships
Thoreau is married to Clara Lionett, and has a young son named Thoreau Jr. He is also the father of Beauregard.
