Nain is an ex-member of the Company of
Crazed Venturers. In his career with them,
he was slain and raised many times, and
rose to 15th level, ere a battle with an evil
demigod (the Godson) drained him of much
experience. He worked his powers back up
to his present level ere the Company?s dissolution,
and befriended Khelben and Durnan
of the Lords of Waterdeep.

With his share of the Company?s wealth,
Nain built his own tower (Naingate) in
Waterdeep, a t Seawatch Street and
Grimwald?s Way (Sea Ward), where he lives
happily immersed in the cut and thrust of
politics and intrigue as a trader and diplomatic
agent in the Palace for the Lords (that
is, he supports and puts forward views of
the Lords while appearing as an independent,
thus influencing other diplomats and
City personages). Nain?s inattention to his
studies and lack of adventuring (he has not
undertaken any deliberate expeditions into
danger since his Company days) have kept
him at his present level. He sometimes
wants to go adventuring again, but after
many Company expeditions in the shadow
of his colleague, Malchor Harpell (q.v.), Nain
is determined that he will be in charge, if he
becomes an adventurer again. Nain has a
dagger +1 and a decanter of endless water,
both of which he always carries with him
(and, of which, he is practiced and skilled in
the odd and offensive uses of the decanter,
such as a means of propulsion when floating,
as a pushing or blinding weapon, to
shatter glass, and suchlike).
