Sales?  Total waste of his talents.  He should be a courier or an
industrial spy, not someone who schmoozes or oozes respectability.


Well, ok, one scenario - everybody wants Mario, however high he raises his
rates, but Mario only wants to do work that's worthy - and Kragar's the
guy who finds out if that's the case.  But then he wouldn't be going
around with Easterners threatening shopkeepers.

He really ought to be a thief, then, or an assassin.
