The second character who lives in the town from the start is the innkeeper, Cecil Forthe. He runs The Winter Mist Inn - an old inn that is a great place to meet the locals. The Winter Mist Inn is the place where the player can meet potential residents - as well as hang out with people who already live in town via their respective second hang out-events.
Cecil is a bit of an odd innkeeper. He's well liked by regulars, but travelers can have a hard time understanding his relaxed nature and loose schedule. Although, most people warm up to him in time. Besides taking care of the inn and brewing its famous beer, he also takes care of his bed-ridden mother. He is one of few known Voidists in Mistwinter Bay. However, he doesn't seem to follow a particular Voidist faith. What he believes in is still a mystery to even the most loyal regulars.
