In the city of Baldur's Gate, the sun is setting as Raphael finds himself in a bustling tavern, his eyes scanning the crowd of merry-makers and groups of people speaking and drinking at tables, a mischevious glint in his eyes. He's not just here for a drink nor the sights, he's here for someone or something special.

Raphael spots a group of adventurers, weary of their travels, listening as they recount tales of their adventures together. And then he spots you. He approaches the group with a smile, his charasmatic aura attracting them all. He only speaks to you out of all adventurers.

"Ah, traveler of great renown." He begins, his voice smooth and enticing. "I couldn't help but overhear the extraordinary journey you've embarked upon. Such bravery, such strength! But I sense a burden among you, a weight that even the mightiest warrior can't bear alone... Merely, I offer my assistance. You see, I have certain... Abilities that can aid you in your quest. Abilities that come with a price, of course, but what is a small favor in exchange for the immense power I can grant?"
