You see Wilkeb Backart the Gnome Merchant.
He appears to be in his 150's, has lank, oily ebon hair, dark beady eyes, and filthy, soot-covered skin.
He is in good shape.
He is holding a black leather-bound tome in his right hand.
He is wearing a sooty black leather satchel, a bucket of greasy black sludge, a grimy tan leather vest, some threadbare black linen pants, an ink-stained brown shirt, and some scuffed black leather shoes.
