Gumshoes - Male/Minor Protagonist

The Grand Guru of The Bearded Gulch and a national treasure of Neuhrial, Gumshoes is a wizened sage and monk of a man, with a plethora of advice and teachings, supposedly for any and all situations. Though, sometimes, albeit rarely, there are sometimes gaps in his ever encompassing knowledge. He may be all knowing, but he is also very old, and his age is often one to get the better of him. He might appear grumpy, ornery, and a little rude, but he's been around for centuries thanks to ancient practices, and has sat in the same spot for probably a good 3 ⁄ 4 of his life, where he's helped countless passersby with their troubles, answering their questions and giving them advice, guiding them on long, perilous journeys. He is reveled as a god and wonder by his people, so much so that there's a legend that has arisen where it's said that if you are to eat one of his seemingly infinitely lengthed beard hairs you'll live forever. It's obviously not true, but, y'know. Bon appetit, I guess?
