Formerly of the Library of Korranberg in Zilargo, Professor Ingrim Jod Jarell (LN female gnome expert 7/wizard 4) is a thin, bespectacled figure with rather severe facial features (and a temperament to match). A dedicated leader within the Crimson Codex, she served for many years as one of Khorvaire’s leading scholars on the history of magic in Xen’drik and Sarlona.
Her identity as an operative of the Codex was compromised, however, when she risked an unwise collaboration with the Lords of Dust to secure a schema in the heart of the Mournland. Summarily dismissed from the Library and pursued by several wronged parties, Jarell fled to Stormreach where she was taken in and sheltered by her true colleagues.
Jarell now remains almost entirely underground, literally and figuratively, protected by the Codex’s intricate network of influence in Stormreach. She is still a formidable scholar, and virtually every artifact the Codex acquires in Xen’drik crosses her desk at some point. Her knowledge of ancient magic is vast, and anyone looking to obtain particularly obscure information would do well to consult her.
