Craxman

Who was Craxman? – Well, they knew precious little about him. Except that once – during a lecture on an anomalous Neolithic burial mound, presented by an external – he had expressed an interest in primitive lobotomy. Hence the sobriquet, Savage Doctor.

He had started coming to them about six months before. He came and went – sometimes requesting to see their reports. He said very little, but was extremely polite.
He always brought the ashplant, and yet showed no signs of a limp.

Dieterling opined that it must have been for protection. Allbright concurred – citing the famous case of the Bulgarian spy brought down by the tip of his enemy’s cane.
