Harmann Otzlowe

A petty merchant of low character but of exceptionally fine appearance, Harmann Otzlowe has a reputation for vanity. He makes his living importing salted fish from Marienburg, but with the stiff competition he faces from his rivals, he can barely make ends meet. Furthermore, he has trouble at home. Since before he was wed, his wife has never trusted him, claiming his pretty face would land him in the arms of another woman.

Having long sickened of her accusations and suspicions, Harmann spent more and more time in the taverns, drinking away the shrill sound of her nagging voice. And during the festivities of Black Powder Week, what could be better than a few extra brews at the Drunken Guardsman? On the third night of the festival, Otzlowe stumbles out of the tavern just before midnight, resolved to face the harpy waiting for him at home. He weaves through the streets, but along the way, he notices someone following him.

Nervous, especially after hearing word of the first two abductions, he slips into the Randy Robin for a nip, but also to get a better look at his pursuer. A few moments later Rolf Vogt enters after him, taking a seat further down the bar. Otzlowe recognizes the man, buys him a drink, and claps him on the back. The two chat for a bit, though no one can hear what they say, and then the merchant leaves. Rolf slips out after him, clubs him in the back of the head with the Chalice, and dumps him in Hans’ waiting cart. Rolf needed a face for his creation. Whilst walking the streets with Hans, he spied Harmann coming out of the Drunken Guardsman and was impressed by the man’s features.

The next day, the Otzlowe matron complains to the Watch that her husband hasn’t yet come home. They assure her such behaviour is not uncommon during this time of year. Frustrated, she calls in a few favours and complains to the higher-ups—word spreads about Otzlowe’s disappearance, and soon after Reuben Kuhn II steps forward.
