The Cult Leader and the Bartender

Two supporting cast characters in Umberwell: The Cult leader and the bartender

Flaw. She controls her emotions to an extent that works against her aims.


Wick
Wick is a bartender at the Bullroarer, a tavern and sauna frequented by picaros and crypt-kickers. As someone whose job entails being a sympathetic ear as much as it does pouring drinks, Wick knows a little something about the personal lives of the Bullroarer’s clientele.
