These two know each other and will be rivals, each denigrating the others' approach to exploration and choice of focus in their logs. Banks thinks Rose is flighty and airheaded, Rose thinks Banks is callous and has no appreciation for beauty.

Name: Sir Reginald Sterling
|
|
|

Background: Sir Reginald Sterling is a wealthy and adventurous nobleman who is driven by a desire for fame and glory. He has always been fascinated by tales of exploration and discovery, and has spent much of his fortune funding expeditions to far-off lands. He is a skilled hunter and marksman and is also a trained archaeologist. He decided to explore the caverns on his own initiative, driven by his desire to be the first to see fantastic sights and to plant his personal flag.

Sir Sterling's early logs would detail his initial excitement and wonder at the fantastic sights he encountered in the caverns, as well as his attempts to claim them in the name of himself. He would write about the challenges he faced and the obstacles he overcame, as well as the unique features and discoveries he made. However, as he ventured deeper into the caverns, he began to encounter strange and terrifying creatures, and artifacts of ancient eldritch civilizations that began to unsettle him. He started to become paranoid and delusional, and his later logs would become increasingly disjointed and difficult to understand, filled with rambling and incoherent musings about the horrors he had encountered. Despite this, the logs could still contain valuable information and secrets hidden among his madness.

He's the first explorer to enter the caverns and he's the one who faced the ancient eldritch horrors deep beneath the Earth that broke his mind. He wasn't commissioned by any royal patron but he came here on his own initiative.
