Herdir in the Torture Chambers of the House of Dementia

Herdir is a male Imperial and Dungeon Master of the House of Dementia. Herdir is a master of torture and enjoys his job very much.

At different stages in the Main Quest, Herdir will share different rumors with other NPCs:

• I hear there's someone new in the Shivering Isles. I do so enjoy making new friends.
• The Gatekeeper's been killed, I hear. Now who knows what new faces I'll get a chance to mangle.
• I had rather enjoyed the Resonator being broken. Greater opportunity for meeting someone new.
• Thadon has his Chalice. That'll anger Syl, I'm sure, which means more work for me.
• My, but it has been busy here lately. I do so enjoy a good conspiracy.
• The Great Torch burns again. That'll boost spirits around here. A shame, really.
• Oh, I must say I was sorry to see Syl go. She always kept me busy, and when I'm busy, I'm ever so happy.
• Thadon has died. I hope he didn't go quietly.
• The Fringe has been attacked. I'm more than willing to help find out who's responsible.
• Quite a shame that there's a new Gatekeeper. I'd been hoping to meet a few more friendly faces.
• No precious army will bring back Lady Syl. Without her, who will let me do what I do best?
• With the whole Realm in jeopardy, my days of work may be at an end. How truly sad.
• Now that things are returning to normal, it's high time I prepare my chamber for some new visitors.
