Malchor Harpell

Malchor Harpell () was a member of the Harpers that hailed from the Harpell family of Longsaddle. He resided in the Tower of Twilight, which stood east of the Neverwinter Wood.
==Personality==
Even though Malchor was Khelben Arunsun's second-most powerful follower, other than Laeral Silverhand, he was also the most skeptical of the Moonstars. While in his tower, Malchor disliked interruptions but rewarded his students' patience, as well as loyal friends and faithful followers, with praise, shelter, gifts, and magical aid. He could be somewhat brusque and arrogant, but he also had a sense of humor.
Although Malchor was a Harpell, he did not share the eccentric ways of his cousins and deigned to live away from Longsaddle.

Along with the items he regularly created, Malchor carried a lurker cloak and a +3 ring of protection when he traveled.
