Volothamp Geddarm

Volothamp Geddarm (Volo for short) is a legendary traveler and storyteller, and is most famous for his guidebooks published by Tym Waterdeep Limited. He is oft portrayed as the quintessential "goto guy" of the Realms even if his information is, at best, half-accurate. While Volo's reputation is well-earned and well-kept, there are others who tend to profit from it, the most well-known being Marcus Volo (as he styles himself when it suits him), also known as Marcus Wands, of the famous Wands family of wizards.
