Gideon Dynamite

Gideon Dynamite has lived his entire life in Halluag. 17 years old, he was raised in comfort and modest wealth. His mother was the town's alchemist, maintaining the sole apothecary, Kate's Herbal. When she died in 2008 of the Grey Fever, Gideon inherited the business. He has since been doing his best to fill his mother's shoes, providing potions from a healthy surplus of stock that she had accumulated. He has also begun to study the art of the chemyst in her honor. He lacks his mother's knack for customer service, rarely treating his patrons with respect and demonstrating an irritating self-pity. His voice has a distinct whine, and he speaks as though every request, no matter how polite, is a terrible imposition.

He has offered the party a bargain: for every Giant Spider corpse they bring for him, he will provide them with 20 gold pieces worth of store credit at Kate's Herbal. He also had a conflict with Elendil when the elf broke into his apothecary late at night and stole a number of potions from his inventory, though chose not to pursue revenge after Elendil returned the potions along with and apology. Gideon joined the party of Elendil, Gale DeOrthea, and Leroy Vargas during an expedition in the mines where he assisted in the slaying of two skeletal champions and a handful of giant spiders.
