Professor Hanlanaze is a reclusive mathematician from New Seran, known for his work on combustion technology and the Higgens effect. His reputation is clouded when he is said to have stolen Remmingtel Tarcsel’s designs, leaving his scholarly accomplishments tangled with a charge of intellectual theft.
Description
Hanlanaze is thick at the waist, with a beard and a colorful Terris cap that gives his otherwise scholarly appearance a vivid accent. The text offers no further specific details about his face, hair, eyes, or clothing, so his visual impression rests on that cap, his beard, and his solid build. He carries the air of a private, bookish man.
