One of the many despicable criminals that make their living in the seedy Underbridge district Siov Cassimeel is a best a small fry. Siov owns and runs a small, dingy tavern named the Friendly Merchant but he makes most of his money hiring out the small, concealed docks that back on to the tavern. Siov hires these docks to any smugglers who need a safe, out of the way location and can afford his high prices. Siov also serves as an informant for the Night Scales, a local thieves guild, keeping them informed about whatever local smugglers are bringing in, he also rents out the dock to Night Scales members at a significantly reduced price. Despite his magical abilities and shady connection Siov is ultimately a coward with little stomach for the violence so common in the underworld.
