===Background===
Born to a adventuring couple in a caravan wagon, Cruendithas has been a adventurer his entire life and seeks the thrill of the unknown treasures to be found and the excitement of the risks to find them. His father was a bit of a thrill seeking rogue and his mother a sorcer bent on keeping her husband alive. Cruendithas is some combination of both a thrill seeking adventure discovering lost magical treasures. At his youthful age he has escaped his mothers protection to be free to enjoy all the risks he seeks.
Cruendithas keeps a collection of stories on parchment, with the scrolls he occasionally carries to bolster his magical arsenal, gives him the appearance of being scholarly. In addition he often has the answers to questions not available to many. He may often be seen jotting down notes of a particularly good adventure story whether his own or someone else's. He enjoys hearing the stories  and will listen as long as others are willing to share.
Upon return from seeking the cause of the unusually large rodents and insects Crue has purchased a suite of rooms and laboratory at the School of High Artifice in Bayanmaliit. This allows him access to many forms of research, knowledge and a place to store his collections. He enjoys the atmosphere and the research space. His specialty is in tracking down lost relics both magical and mundane.
