Egbert was a mercilessly effective tax collector in his first life — orphanages, nobility, clergy, none were safe from his bespectacled gaze. When he gets reborn as a dungeon that can only advance by making money, things get rather meanspirited. Egbert will do whatever it takes to nickel and dime every single copper he can from adventurers he cons into his depths. Inbred fisherfolk, concerningly drunk knights, even overeager orcs — all are fair game for his fleecing. Except the mages. Those pretentious dicks are getting fed to the mimics.
