Dyneach

 Dyneach has a large mansion, well supplied with magical protections, about 150 km inland of Ilthmar. Once his revenge plan is discovered, he will certainly flee there, unless he knows there is little chance of escape, in which case he will prepare for a last stand, wherever seems appropriate. If possible, he will alert the other conspirators to enlist their aid (and thus ensure their doom). For the nonce, he lives in the house of Tomarrion. The cellar, where he has disposed of Tomarrion himself, is locked, and holds his magical apparatus and books. The place (apart from a few rooms where he lives, and the conspirators meet) are in disarray, since he has dismissed all the servants. He maintains those rooms he uses himself.

Dyneach is of middle height, with what seems prematurely white hair. He seems a healthy, athletic middle age, but not overly muscled. When not bolstered by magic, he walks with a pronounced limp, due to a leg long ago badly burnt and not properly healed.
