Nathomar

Mer Nathomar is a photographer in Amalo who owns Nathomar Photography.

Appearance
Nathomar was a young elven-man with bright blue eyes.

Personality
Nathomar was polite to Thara Celehar, and interested in his work. He was also thoughtful and happy to help Thara solve his investigations.

Life
When Thara was investigating the murder of Tomilo Ulzhavel, he discovered that Tomilo wanted photography banned from the city, and asked Iäna Pel-Thenhior for help locating photographers as a way to see if they had motive to kill her. Nathomar noted Tomilo was hardly the first to try what she did, and it wasn't really something photographers would kill her for. He also suggested Thara speak to the Ulzhavadeise servants, which Thara hadn't yet attempted. Eventually, Thara realized that Osmin Tativin, Tomilo's secretary, had murdered her. When asked why, Tativin presented incriminating photographs of herself that had been given to Tomilo, and supposedly put Tativin's position at risk.

Thara felt the need to continue the investigation into the photographer and/or who had sent the photographs, and took them to Nathomar for advice. Nathomar noted they were by Anvina Renthalar. When Thara wanted to question Anvina about them, Nathomar discouraged him, as Anvina was dangerous, and took Thara to see Erthalo, another of Anvina's victims, to show Thara was happened to people who crossed Anvina. She also cautioned him against crossing Anvina. Thara promised not to seek out Anvina.
