=== Hoid ===
 
{{quote|Hoid has too many issues to count. I wouldn’t trouble yourself with his situation. He’s nearly as deft at untying knots as he is at creating them.|Ulaam}}
 
Ulaam has a previous friendship with [[Hoid]]. Ulaam seems to enjoy witnessing the effects of the Sorceress’sSorceress's curse on his friend, going so far as to write embarrassing accounts of his actions and sending them to mutual good friends of theirs. Ulaam takes advantage of Hoid’sHoid's misfortunes and excites in the opportunity to explore.{{book ref|tress|18}}{{book ref|tress|42}}
