Notes 

  • Donovan Bosley is, like a lot of Changelings, a member of the 'Private Inquisitive' business operating in the City of Towers, or Sharn as its official name. Being a 'Private Inquisitive' isn't anything new, nor is being a lone wolf, rather than working for Carne Organization or the Inquisitive's Guild of Sharn (IGS). There are plenty of 'lone wolf' operatives in the city, Donovan happens to be one of those.
  • While looking for a missing writer in the 'Contemporary Romance' genre. Reporting on the accounts of dukes and counts marrying out of love for charlatan and courtesans, material like that. Has led to Donovan finding a girlfriend in missing writer's secretary, Linda Loring. She's one of the few to see Donovan in his 'neutral state' as a changeling.
  • Carries a spectacle case capable of Once per Long Rest enchanting a set of spectacles to act as either Goggles of Night or Goggles of Minute setting. In Addition to his investigatory aids, Donovan carries a either a sword cane, or a sword cane disguised as an umbrella, a dagger, and a weighted sap.
