They abandonded him on an island surrounded by viscious man-eating fish until they decided his fate. He speaks in a squeaky drawl the likes of which the League has not come across.  The old gnome seems kindly but strange, often taking a sip of a special flask he has named "Ol' Death Whisper", but his relaxed manner hides a creature that is nothing if not a survivor.

• Vald is a lieutenant of Ulwyn of the Chitine. He has been tasked to help the party end the evil influence that has shattered their society and sent many into exile.  He sometimes seems to be less chitine and more human, personalities conflicting in his mind, perhaps from his magical creation at the hands of the drow.

• Harbin Wester is the elected Townmaster of Phandalin.  He is blustery and ineffective, and confronted the party after they beat the ruffians in the streets of town.  He clearly did not want to see any escalation of activities and did not want to have the Redbrands disturbed, or it would "bring trouble".

• Redbrand Ruffians is a group of thugs habitating in the town of Phandalin, and from what several residents describe, bullying and extorting and the townspeople.  They battled with the Owlbear League in front of the Sleeping Giant tavern, and most were severely beaten.  One ran back to Tresendar Manor and escaped, and later, when the Owlbear League infiltrated the basement, the party killed several, but their leader "Glasstaff" has not yet been met.

• Sildar Hallwinter was a kindhearted human male of nearly fifty years who held a place of honor in the famous griffon cavalry of the great city of Waterdeep. Sildar was the friend and paid guardian of Gundren Rockseeker and was accompanying him to Phandalin in preparation of mining Wave Echo Cave, which Gundren had purchased a map to. Along the way he was captured by a group of Cragmaw Goblins, who were after Gundren. He was taken to the Cragmaw Hideout, kept there and beaten for information until he was rescued by a group of adventurers. Unfortunately, he died in the escape in a battle with the duplicitous goblins.  One of his last requests was to connect with a wizard, Iarno Albrek, a fellow member of the Lords' Alliance who disappeared while investigating Tresendar Manor some two months ago, he might know where Cragmaw Castle is - the place they took Gundren to.

• Gundren Rockseeker is a wealthy, dwarf merchant. He has two younger brothers, Nundro and Tharden. He became friends with the apprentice wizards Immeral and K'ronk in the town of Ulthek as they were studying magic.  He hired them and their adventuring friends to escort a wagon of mining supplies south to Phandalin, while he hurried ahead.  Gundren and his bodyguard Sildar were waylayed by a group of goblins and taken to their hideout cave in control of Klarg, a bugbear.  Gundren was handed over to another tribe run by "King" Grol in Cragmaw Castle along with his map to Wave Echo Cave.  Beaten and questioned, he was going to be sold off to someone known as "The Spider" when the Owlbear League rescued him and the map from Grol.  Now he is preparing an expedition to find his brothers at Wave Echo Cave.
