# General Name: Sanguinus Hobb Status: Alive Race/Species: Human Gender: Male Age: Adult --- Sanguinus Hobb, "Old Hobb" to the regulars, runs [[2-World/Places/The Last Hearth.md|The Last Hearth]], Skarholt's only inn, on the edge of [[2-World/Places/The Frostmarket.md|The Frostmarket]]. He's not what travellers expect behind the bar of a frontier inn. He is tall and rail-thin, all long limbs and sharp angles, and he stands with a lazy slouch, one gloved hand in his pocket and the other resting on his cane. His face is gaunt and deeply lined, with sunken cheeks and a pointed chin. His pale, straw-blond hair is combed straight back, slicked flat and left long at the nape. A thin, waxed moustache curls up at the tips over a wide, crooked grin that's missing a few teeth; one of the teeth that's left is stained a deep, dark red ("forty years of mulled wine," he says). He wears small round spectacles with red-tinted lenses that hide his eyes completely, and a little gold ring in one ear. He dresses far too well for a mountain inn: a long burgundy tailcoat with deep red lapels and swallowtails that reach past his knees, studded at the lapels, cuffs and tails with small pointed gold caps. Beneath it, a dark brown waistcoat with gold buttons and a gold watch-chain, a high white collar, and a mustard-gold cravat pinned with a tiny gold skull. His trousers are brown pinstripe, his shoes pointed and polished under pale grey spats, and his hands are always in black leather gloves. He never goes anywhere without his cane: a long shaft of twisted gold, topped with a gold skull whose eyes are set with two small red stones. Hobb knows everyone and remembers everything: every traveller who has ever slept under his roof, where they came from, and what they were running from. He's generous with food, generous with credit and very generous with gossip. Half the deals in Skarholt are struck at his tables, and the Thaw Festival wouldn't be the same without his drinking contest. Behind his bar stands a pot with a heart in it. If anyone asks, Hobb will cheerfully tell them it's his uncle, or what's left of him. # Statblock **Statblock:** Cult Fanatic # Inventory The following items belong to Sanguinus Hobb. # Connections Is the person linked to any groups or quests?
