Dockmaster at North Docks, Kajan works out of an office there.

A fellow Bodlean and the closest friend Terrike has in Kaitaine. Respected by captains, he follows the Mad Wind, knows the weather, and is whispered to occasionally accept bribes for "helping" (or "hindering") a ship on its way. A brief and stormy sexual entanglement between Terrikke and Kajan is now history; as far as she is concenred this only adds to their friendship.

Kajan's opinion is that the Warlocks of Itanis are the most likely to have arranged for Olfar to be captured, to get at his ship-binding secret with their uncanny brains-fiddling.
