Timeon Kantstandyerbitz

Played by: Seth Morrison

First appeared in: Keeper of the Ways

Spent most of his childhood and early life in a parallel universe on the other side of a mirror. Claims that his brother Simeon Kantstandyerbitz pushed him in, though this is disputed.

In 3.501: Under a Strange Sky he appears as Tim, a cloaked assassin with thick black hair who introduces himself as the shadow of death and the grim reaper. He wakes on the hilltop with only fragments of memory, advises the group to keep to the shadows and stay close to the trees, and urges them to move on from the black pillar toward Evanstone.

In 3.502: Monster Squad he is caught trying to look over the goods behind the counter of Alam's general store, then shares a vision of another place with Drandy and feels that the two of them have known each other. Later, as strange presences close in on the party in the alleys of Evanstone, he picks the lock on the back door of an abandoned shack with a total of 26.

In 3.503: Polterheist he swings his rapier through a dead light to no effect, picks the padlock on the gates of Ebengard Manor with Glenn's help, and snaps his picks on the front door after two 1s in a row. In the master bedroom he helps fight the spiky stone creatures that unfold from the black stones, and he finishes one with an arrow through its black heart.

In 3.504: Gleaming the Cube he finds a hat that gives him darkvision in the mayor's closet, picks one display-case lock and smashes the glass on two others, takes and attunes to the strength-19 gauntlets, and holds back at the mirror at first. He suggests a flaming arrow, dipped in lantern oil, against the gelatinous cube.

In 3.505: Lighting the Way he touches the armored statue in the pyramid chamber and is asked who he is, answering first "Jackie Chan" and then "Tim." He admits to himself that he wants the ways for his own gain, but passes the statue's test with a lucky 16 on Deception. His window in the lantern shows a boy calling his name, and the DM reveals that he is Dr. Simeon's long-lost brother, Timeon, who fell through the window as a boy. He picks the lock on the storm cellar doors and takes out his short bow on the run up the hill.

In 3.506: Brother's Keeper he is the only one to fail the Wisdom save against the dread of the obelisk, even after spending two points of Luck, so he cannot move closer to Shen and fights from range. He passes Glenn a healing potion, stabs a ghoul with his rapier and kills another with a short bow arrow through its eye, and uses Luck for a short bow hit on Shen. When the book is finally readable and the way is open, he is torn about going home because of everyone he has killed, and as a presence that has been in his mind for a while departs, he steps through the gate.

In 401: Static Prevails the Keeper says that Dr. Simeon found him through a dangerous bit of magic and a break-in at Miskatonic University's artifact storage. He is home and safe but still struggling to adjust, and he has gone back to the old family home. Simeon has not heard from him in a few days.

After Radio Man, Timeon becomes a fully fledged player character.
