The Gentleman Caller is an incubus who is striving to escape the Land of Mists. To this end he has undertaken an innovative, far reaching breeding program. Given his aim, he and his children are of the upmost interest to Azalin Rex. Indeed the raison d'être of the Doomsday Gazetteer project seems to be the identification of his spawn. He is pursued by his nemesis, Isolde.
