Garth Weder
an Austrian expert in the restoration of wood, papyrus and cloth relics, Garth divides his time between the Museum workshops at Thebes and the Museum at Cairo. a regular at the Munammed Ali Club, Automobile Club, and the Institute Francais d'Archaeologic Orientale, Garth is also one of the inner circle of the Cairo Masonic Lodge and a founding member of the Golden Dawn in Cairo. He knows of the Brotherhood of the Black Pharoah, but considers their efforts to be Amateurish.
Attractive and charismatic, with striking grey eyes and strong hands. Garth is described by his associates as a "lady killer". this description si more accurate than they know. His last four girlfriends never arrived home after their Egyptian holidays. Should the opportunity arise, Garth is quick to ingratiate himself with the investigators (even allowing them access to the four hidden rooms in the Museum after hours), and assists them while monitoring their activities. the investigators are in mortal danger if they trust him too far.
