The Seventh Sensation
An accomplished tomb-colonist chef with a troubled past, the Bandaged Poissonier is a Khaganian who left his family behind and dramatically quit a different job to pursue his true calling. He visits London each year at Hallowmas, to share his shame with all who wish to hear of it. The Poissonier owns a very well-reviewed restaurant in Venderbight called The Vengeance of Jonah, though his restaurant is rather lenient with the concept of edibility.
The Poissonier seems to have an affinity with zeefood; he can render even the strangest of catches edible (edible, not tasty). Strangely, his cooking methods resemble a form of alchemy; he's even capable of deducing the ingredients of Zzoup. Despite everything, he's not a miracle worker, and some catches are simply beyond his skills. As of now, he's looking for ways to fulfill his obscure ambition, and the ingredients he needs are expensive. Expensive indeed....
