Hinter

Hinter was a ghostly necromancer who lived in the eponymous Hinter's Tower in Darujhistan. High Alchemist Baruk characterised him as a formidable sorcerer in his day, but Hinter called himself only "passable, and fatally careless." He was described as the dark shadow of a tall man in tattered clothes.Orb Sceptre Throne, Chapter 3 His grasp was deadly.

Harllo shared a story with Bainisk of time his Uncle Gruntle had taken him to see Hinter's haunted tower. The caravan guard told him a ghost named Hinter lived there.Toll the Hounds, Chapter 15, US SFBC p.584
Baruk went to the doorway of Hinter's Tower to bargain with the prickly ghost for information and advice, carefully remaining in the yard out of his reach. The ghost begrudgingly agreed to help the city as it was in his best interest--the suspected return of the Tyrant would see his own enslavement. The ghost chastised Baruk for setting off the Convergence that brought so many individuals of power to the city. Baruk quizzed him on several such entities and Hinter admitted Lady Envy had come to see him while Vorcan Radok had not. In return for the ghost's help and to enforce his neutrality in the travails to come, Baruk promised to send his pet demon Chillbais to watch the tower and sound the alarm if anyone made a move to enslave him. Hinter knew of the demon and was not pleased.Toll the Hounds, Chapter 15, US SFBC p.602-604
