Pullit

A very strange and curiously secure gnome of unknown origin. Operating out of the Labyrinth in one of the few easy to find locations with a maintained road leading straight to his door, Pullit is a man known across the island for being the defacto welcoming man for newcomers to the island. Though people say he runs a school he more just lets people come to his home and listen to him ramble, least by his own measure.

Physical description
Nobody is quite sure what all of Pullit looks like. Of course he looks like a tinker gnome, mid length wavy slate grey hair and a fine short beard, short, and always wearing some flavor of bulky robes that doesn't show any skin. Some people like to joke he's become some sort of construct, hiding away a metal body under it all.

History
Absolutely nobody knows where he came from, even he gives either obviously fake answers or shrugs it off when questioned for some reason. Even his neighbors can't seem to remember when he moved in, nor when he found the time to add a branch to a road that lead to his house. But at the same time that's far from the most unusual thing on Mistfall so people just let the man be, before long people started wandering into his house thinking they were following a road only to hear him rambling off advice for living on the island.

Though he himself doesn't admit to really teaching, just letting people listen, this did ultimately become his role on the island. The welcome wagon, sat perfectly in a place even the most clueless person is going to find and so lacking in security or threats that nobody's going to be turned away. And so the unofficial school for the dim was made, a bit of a derogatory term made by his neighbors mocking the people who need advice on living without things like guards, laws, or even the security to not be shanked on the street. Pullit again just doesn't seem to mind, if anything he's embraced it.

And even though he's never acknowledged being a teacher sometimes he does stop his ramblings to take a student aside and congratulate them on 'graduating' by hearing all he's had to say. He even keeps in contact about as best he can, asking about their escapades, sending letters, and so on.

As a curious note many people wonder how Pullit has survived this long, his home is always open even in his sleep and the donations from students has piled up rather high over the years. Some people say he's secretly stronger than he looks, others say he's some sort of construct, and others gave him his personal favorite title of 'Adamantine Back'. Rather distressingly he's actually said it was 'close', something that has endlessly infuriated a few students.
