Survivors of the Hyborean Age assault on modern Earth told the party where to find his tower. He demonstrated a number of alchemical preparations, and was recruited.

In particular he made:

• Red powder (see ethereal/astral) - from snail - gave us 5-8 uses and the snail
• Purple crystals (see future) - source unknown - gave us 1 use
• White powder (see past) - source unkown - gave us 1 use
• Blue powder (see weight of karma) - source unkown - gave us 3-4 uses

Completely mad, and badly addicted to his preparations, he threw himself into a time anchor coma with an OD. Blendin Blandin rescued him and put him in a flask.
