Seeker Veth

The Scorch Seekers' cell leader, a thin human man with burned hands and an absolute certainty that the Cindervault will answer the Sundering's last question — afraid to go in alone, unable to say so.

Veth charted the fumarole approach over two seasons, mapping every vent and safe step. He will offer the route in exchange for company on the descent. The burned hands are from an earlier attempt. He does not explain what happened on that attempt.
