Professor Grigg Wunsin
Professor Wunsin is an expert in the history of the Dhakaani Empire, a time when Goblinoids ruled Khorvaire until they were brought low by the Daelkyr invasions from Xoriat, the Plane of Madness. His offices are at the Wroat campus of Morgrave University.

The Professor is a tall, slender middle-aged Human male, with long silver-white hair bound in a ponytail with a heavy silver ring, angular features and piercing steel-gray eyes. He has helped Faye Dwarfhammer and other party members with vital information about the Dhakaani, the "Dark Hand" that has reemerged as the Dark Hand Goblinoids that briefly entered northeastern Breland, the Ku'un Dynasty that briefly ruled Dhakaan, the legendary spear known as Guurgaal, and the incursion from Xoriat -- led by a trio of Daelkyr known simply as "The Three" -- who crushed the Ku'un Dynasty 7,500 years ago. He provided similar assistance to the "Unfinished Business" party, and went so far as to purchase an ancient Hobgoblin War Banner from Alfred Meldrum.

The Portrait of Grigg Wunsin
Late in Zarantyr 998 YK, the party was in Wroat, staying at The Alumni Club, an inn near Morgrave University that had catered to faculty and guests for more than a century. There, they discovered a protrait of Professor Wunsin on a wall of similar protraits, all of present and past professors and other noteworthy members of the Morgrave community. In the portrait, Wunsin looks almost exactly as the party saw him, down to the ponytail. If the signature and date are accurate, it was painted in 920 YK by an "Ar Tanis" (whose signature was on several other portraits, with dates ranging from 910 to 923 YK). The dust on the frame and slight aging of the pigments also support that the painting is indeed 77 years old, with an apparently Human subject who looks unchanged from then to now.

Known Associates
As of early 998 YK, the Gnome Warmage Meedill works as the Professor's field researcher. Meedill has popped up on several occasions, each time claiming to be doing work for the Professor. Most recently (14-15 Therendor 998 YK) Meedill was found by a party of adventurers being held captive by the Cult of The Three Below, deep under Sharn.

Before that, Rokar Droranath from the Mror Holds apprenticed under the Professor for several years, eventually taking on the name Rock Silverbreath. He later claimed to his countryman Golandar that the Professor was in fact a Silver Dragon from Argonessen called Wunsingrygge. This claim was later substantiated by the King's Citadel while the fortress Dejarn was stationed outside New Cyre in the aftermath of the Siege.
