Cratinus, the Playwright, is a triton with spindly arms and legs along with a massive gut and a pair of protruding, bulging, wild eyes. He can be normally found inside the Odeon in Lothos, continually scratching onto the surface of a hand-held wax tablet with a small wooden stylus. He likes to share the weirdest stories and rumours about far away lands with anyone that listens to him.
