Nim

Nim the Nimble Gnome is a smart-talking agent of the Merchant's Guild, often sent in to handle sensitive or dangerous missions. He's skilled with stealth and knives.

The group first encountered Nim in New Fort, where he was seeking the missing Guild representatives Wazzle (?) and Momotaro. Though they only managed to find the former, Nim helped them on their journey anyway, saying he never cared much for Momotaro, and that he had business in the same areas they were headed.

In Drakka's camp, he and Aeryn investigated Quazzit, whose numbers weren't adding up and whose apprentice Cranx had gone missing under mysterious circumstances. They discovered that Quazzit was running a scam on basically everyone he came in contact with, and was participating in the slave trade, which is forbidden under Guild regulations. Rather than expel Quazzit from the Guild and dispose of him then and there, Nim suggested they use his caravan to get into Riftwatch.

In Riftwatch, Nim used Quazzit to create a distraction so Aeryn could reunite with the rest of the group and find Amelie. They later found Nim hidden in Isildor's office, and created a distraction to get him out. He commandeered an airship for their escape, rescuing Cranx and capturing Quazzit in the process.
