Description
Yharov was exiled from his clan due to showing innate aptitude for the shadow arts and stealth, which was seen as an affront to the face-to-face combat traditional of Goliaths. He wandered and found himself at the House of One Hand Clapping, a monastery of monks practicing shadow arts. The location is unknown, those who find the cloister do so by not searching for it. He was trained in the Way of Shadow, and taught the ancient and secretive practice of shadow weaving, infusing shadow into the fabric of items. He is still honing this ability. Monks of the House were much sought after as spies, assassins, etc. It is unknown how contracts were made, but coin exchanged hands. After becoming disillusioned with the secrecy and unknown true purpose of these contacts, Yharov left in search of his own path, continuing to develop him own practice and craft his own meaning behind his abilities.

- Ferrar cursed him into a werewolf in 05-Shopping Spree > A conversation with Ferrar
- He shadow-wove a blade out of Avenj’s body, meant to kill The Unknown
- “The darkness that always scared him” answered when he asked it to bring Avenj back. It offered to let him take Avenj’s place instead
- He was the only one V’s charm didn’t take on the way into Myrrh’s Hollow South, and the only one who saved against The Mirror Of What Is. The mirror still told him: “Cal came out of the blue and hasn’t told you anything about themself. The only thing they are focused on is Theratina. Why?”
- The Blue Apprentice warned in 12-The Executioner > At The Shaded Cavern that Yharov may die later, depending on whether we stayed to fight The Executioner or not
- He found the padlocked door, the Alarm spell, and the sugar circle in the basement of The Sabertooth Tavern, and later cracked the latch and dial on the Water Symbol Stone that gave us the steel and coral key
- Told Caelan and Tam Theratina’s story on watch in 15-Joining Forces, and heard their side: their stolen dragons, and the growth spurt that lined up with her revival
- He climbed to a window of The South Tavern and overheard The Piper and Bruce; see 15-Joining Forces > Outside The South Tavern
- Hasted by Cal, he ran down Bruce in 17-In Theratinas Head > Bruce shows up
- In the labyrinth in 17-In Theratinas Head > In some labyrinth he found no traps on the lever with a natural 20, then tried to pickpocket The Lesser Man. The Lesser Man pulled a string and one of Yharov’s fingers disappeared. He got a small, heart-shaped silver locket. Pulling another string himself summoned a Tyrannosaurus Rex
