Nood, Boonta--An explorer in the early days of Bylome. He often explored alone and developed the habit of carrying everything he could anticipate needing, which left little to carry for others who from time to time joined him. This habit proved both handy, as in the many scenarios he recalled in his memoirs, and disastrous, such as the time his sidebag strap got caught on a branch and then pulled off his shoulder and down a rocky cleft, where it remained for six days while he returned to Bylome and came back with a long hook. In that time the party had nearly starved, having no means to catch or cook their own food.
