Mestan

An accomplished bounty hunter and assassin. Very little is known about him and he has an impressive list of lies for anyone who tries to interrogate him about himself and his past.

Story
Background unknown. Anyone who asks gets a pack of lies in response.

Mestan can be encountered at the Aram desert bounty office during Aka's route, but the first significant encounter is when he's waiting for an opportunity to assassinate the Ivalan priestess assigned to Eustrin, but is being thwarted by Simon and company. He immediately abandons his goal and begins turning up where Simon's group is operating, sometimes offering to kill someone or abandon a job he's taken. He claims this is because Simon and certain members of his group, such as Aka, have been some of the few interesting things in his life for a long time.

When Simon talks to Palina before the Third Arclent War, Mestan talks to Aka.

During the Third Arclent War, he can be asked to kill an orc leader or an Aramite captain. In exchange for this he again meets with Simon in the Yhilini Palace.

During the Ardan succession crisis, he can be asked to fake an assassination attempt on Bhakan, or to stall Donovan.

He makes an appearance during the invasion of Erosia. There, he has an encounter with a mysterious black haired girl, which leaves him much troubled.

He makes another appearance in the Lustlord fortress when Simon went to rescue Ginasta, revealing that he got a soul shard, making him an Incubus King. Another being, Lilith, revealed herself as being linked to him.

Later, he takes part of the Second Gathering, as one of the new Incubus Kings. Depending on Simon's action, either he is fleeing Lilith, or is plagued by her. Anyway, he reveals that he is a construct she created to be able to use a soul shard, but he took a life on his own. During the Empress' orgy, he is seen partying with both succubi and orcs, confirming his stated bisexuality.
