Had a goblin assistant named Scrappy, and an undead butler golem in a tuxedo named Smurch. Scrappy was killed by a vampire spawn working for Lan Hazal as retribution for being given diseased blood by Tarius. Tarius explained himself on return, explaining that the spawn was very insistent that they take that specific noble's blood for the ritual and so the necromancer assumed he wanted the blood specifically for the reason that it was diseased, not because it was a noble. Lan agreed that it was an over-reaction and so replaced his assistant with an actual gnome assistant named Jorge Sarico.
