Description

"The master cartographer Lazzarin Geld (N male human expert 12) lives and works in a refurbished old manor house on the corner of Horseshoe Road and Cargo Street, at the eastern end of the River Quarter. His small office, just off the three-story structure’s main entry, holds a wide variety of regional maps including documents showing prospecting rights in the Cairn Hills, the location of tapped-out tombs in the high country surrounding Greyhawk, and interior maps of many of the city’s finest establishments, such as the Great Library and the Royal Opera House. Geld even stocks maps of portions of Castle Greyhawk. "[1]

"The rest of Geld’s splendid manor is the secret lodge of Greyhawk’s branch of the [Seekers of the Arcane], complete with a well-stocked library of arcane tomes and transcribed adventurers’ journals. Geld sometimes offers membership in the organization to those who impress him as dedicated treasure hunters and explorers of the unknown, granting them access to the Seekers’ library and a host of highly placed fellow members with a wide variety of skills and interests. "[1]
