- | Hoffman is the leader of [[Elder]]'s merchant guild. He is the first person to greet the El Search Party, he has been informed by [[Hagus]] of your arrival. Inviting the El Seach Party to his home, he sits them down for a cup of tea. Hoffman informs the group that Banthus has been performing similar heists in surrounding towns a well, he also expresses concerns about the local military's actions given the increase in bandit activity. As an initiation of trust Hoffman tasks the El Search Party with reclaiming stolen supply from the bandits posted by [[Wally's Memorial Bridge]]. Despite gaining his trust, he is still reluctant to provide information without getting something in return. | ||
As a merchant, he puts trust above all else and tasks the team with recovering lost goods in the [[2-1|Dark Forest]]. The increase in unrest in the forest reminds Hoffman of the Great Monster Outbreak from thousands of years ago, suspicious that the Demon World might play a role, he investigates the Dark Wizards. With the help of [[Luichel]] they have a tip on where to find Banthus. He enlists the help of [[Lenphad]], the two grow increasingly suspicious of the increase in bandit activity and the lack of action by Wally's guards. Their suspicion was right as Banthus had been working with Wally. | |||
When it came time to storm [[2-5|Wally's Castle]], Hoffman suggests againt a head on approach and asks for [[Luichel]]'s help once more to infiltrate the castle. During their encounter with Banthus in the [[2-3|Underground Waterway]] they discovered Banthus had been augmented with machines. When making it to [[2-4|Suburb of Wally's Castle]] he is confused about the usually actions of the phorus and demands they be stopped thus not to jeopardize their operation. The phoru's mishap caused the plan to change slightly, the El Search Party dealt with the soldier stationed on the castle's wall while the villagers stormed the then unprotected gate. The operation was a success with little casualties. Confronted Wally No.8, Hoffman became convinced that Wally had been using the villager's tax money to fund his Nasod research. They stormed the castle searching for the El but it was nowhere to be seen. With the help of other merchants, Hoffman deduced that Wally most likely flew off to [[Bethma]] and contacts [[Stella]]. | |||
