Sir Nijelle Harlop Bane of Bannoffsmalle

Nillamandor's first tourist and travel writer. Under the delusion that he is writing about
his travels merely for the amusement of the Queen, he does not realise he is in fact a spy. 
Bane is young and naive and somewhat self assured and pompous. His family has long been very
poor but are one of the proudest of Elbonia. Once they owned mines all over the continent but
have long since fallen on harder times (The Elbow stone mines in Styke is an example of one
of the families enterprises)
He is tall, heavy set and affects a handlebar moustache. He is intelligent in a bookish sort
of way but lacks commonsense.
He is a great reader, and has taken many of his history books and others that he thinks he
may find useful.
He will often refer to a book by 'The Learned Hobokken of Enttland' who travelled all over
the place. He was primarily looking for Marathon ruins but wrote about everywhere he visited.
(Here the Marathon are referred to as the Marawans.)
Bane will refer to this book whenever he is about to visit a new place. Unfortunately the book
is 200 years old so is pretty out of date.
Bane finds the Elbonian language too simple and much prefers Old Entish a much more
sophisticated tongue.
