Arcanum: Of Steamworks and Magick Obscura - Tollo Underhill

Tollo Underhill is the elusive halfling Tech-Thief imprisoned in the depths of the Dernholm Pits. Hired by K’an Hua for his deadly skills, his mission to retrieve the Vendigroth Device ended in disaster—only he survived. Haunted by the trauma of his fallen companions, he spiraled into a drunken rampage that landed him behind bars.

Rescuing him is no small feat: you must not only help him escape from prison, but also manipulate his ego—convinced he's scared—to persuade him to join your party. As a temporary follower, he's clever and lethal; and under just the right mix of evil alignment and persuasion, he may even stay as a regular companion, sharing his invaluable knowledge of the Vendigroth Ruins.

In Arcanum, Tollo Underhill represents the fine line between survival and damnation—a thief shaped by betrayal, fear, and a desperate will to live. He reminds us that the shadows often breed the sharpest minds—and redemption sometimes comes with a cloak of cunning.
