Aiken is a high-ranking member of the Unravel, and a minor NPC present during the events of the Fantasial Freeze.
Aiken is an athletic and cunning human who presumes much authority within the walls of the thieves guild's base of operations. He is not a kind man, and as such his usual tactics are underhanded and cruel. All is acceptable to Aiken when the strength of the guild is at stake. Aiken's right hand man is Bartlett, and the two of them make quite a pair.
In non-Unravel settings, Aiken poses as an acrobat. Being trained as a performer and a spy, he is able to gather information in ways many normal people would not anticipate. It is noteworthy that Aiken has shown no magical ability in his few sightings throughout the Freeze.
Within the guild, Aiken presides over most of the junior members of the Unravel, coordinating their training and progress. As such, his influence extends to many of the PCs within the city, such as Kludzu, Clover, and Kara. Aiken regulary leverages his power to further the Unravel's goals even as our heroes further the pursuit of good. He must be dealt with.
