Frank Lardner

A wealthy Merchant Prince, his aristocrat family turn up their noses at Frank's dealing in loans, captives and cargos from distant lands. Yet his travels with Bedouins, other Predators, and all the races of the Middle Sea have enriched his purse as well as his sophisticated tastes. Always interested in a new experience, he enjoys tasting the spices, foods and prey in which he deals, yet stays fit defending his cargos from thieves, spies and competitor merchants. Often found in the desert or ports, dealing for his portfolio, and snapping up bargains or unclaimed morsels left unguarded.
