Clainin

Clanin is an NPC, once the court wizard of Lord British's Royal Court, replacing Nystul. He served in this capacity going back to at least 2001, around the time of the invasions of the Juka. Among his notable achievements is finding a cure for the Royal Guard commandant, as played by each Shard's Event Moderator. He also appears to have been involved in Avery's investigation of the Followers of Armageddon. He also spoke at length with Inu the Crone, and appears to have earned the half-mad prophet's grudging respect.

He also authored a minor scholarly work on Malas and on the concept of Facets.

He replaced Nystul.

Clainin was later identified by Casca as having been a member of the Royal Council at some point.

His name is often mis-spelled as "Clanin," even by the game manufacturers on occasion.

He was injured in the Blackrock explosion of Haven, and lay in a coma in New Haven for a long time.

He awoke on 13 March 2009, only to face an attempt on his life.
