The man who is not Osman

The man who is not Osman is an agent in the employ of Osman, the spymaster of Al Kharid. During Contact!, he disguises himself and replaces Osman in Al-Kharid palace while he is busy in Sophanem.

Like Osman, he is fond of Sq'irks, and replaces Osman's role in the Sorceress's Garden minigame until completion of the quest.

Trivia

 * Oddly, he does not replace Osman after Our Man in the North, with the role instead going to Emir Ali Mirza.
