Master Librarian

The Master Librarian offers supplies and information despite his connection to Dracula’s household. His shop becomes a recurring support point within the hostile castle.

• Story: The Jewel of Open makes his service important to progression, while later visits can support recovery and optional development.
• In the game: Budget for access tools before spending everything on minor equipment changes. Use his stock to solve a specific need and keep useful resistance gear rather than automatically replacing every older item.
