Moris Olgrund

Moris Olgrund was the Funeral Director and mortician of Daggerford Graveyard in the Eastern Farmlands of the city of Daggerford circa 1372 DR.

"It's a strange occupation, I'll grant you. But I actually enjoy caring for the dead. They're so predictable and hence so dependable! All the stress of my job comes from dealing with the living. When I tell the poor family what has happened, they'll never forgive me..."

- Moris Olgrund

Description
Moris was a pale and gaunt half-elf with sharp features and long black hair.

Personality
Diligent and perfectionist by nature, Moris could get extremely stressed by certain events, like missing corpses. His body language portrayed severe agitation, and he perspired excessively when stressed and wrung his hands.

Moris Olgrund was a devote follower of Lord Kelemvor and he despised the undead.

Possessions
Moris Olgrund kept detailed records of the funerals in his ledger, the logbook embossed with gold letters.

The mortician was stocked up on holy water if he ended up destroying the undead and sending their spirits to Kelemvor's realm.

History
The Olgrunds were in the family business of caring for the dead of Daggerford for several generations. Moris's entire life was spent perfecting that vocation. The family reputation was spotless.

In 1372 DR, Moris Olgrund embalmed and interred Old Man Bricket on the behest of his sister Muriel Bricket in the Bricket family crypt for the sum of five hundred gold coins. Soon after the interring ceremony, however, the corpse was gone. This incident pushed poor Moris into a panic. He was terrified of the entire Daggerford finding out of his failure, especially the man's kindly sisters. They'd be heartbroken! Serendipitously, the Hero of Daggerford volunteered to help the panicked mortician. Moris was unable to leave his duties to go galavanting across the fiends in search of Elveronne Bricket's cadaver. The mortician suspected vile necromancy was at work and asked the Hero to destroy the undead abomination if indeed Elveronne rose as a shambling dead.

Moris told the Hero that the Old Man Bricket died due to spontaneous and severe food poisoning as per the coroner and the man's sisters who witnessed the distressing ordeal. They blamed bad salmon.
