Vyncis Broadhammer is the owner and manager of the Jury Rigg Inn in The Drift's Anchortown district. He first met Bryn Van'Eetvelde when the elf-kin was disguised under the persona, Trevar?, shortly after The Wayward Crew first got together under contract to "Dune".
Much later they would meet again after Bryn Van'Eetvelde and Silas "Bad Eye" Elaro were falsely arrested for the assassination of the Sea Baron and placed in neighboring prison pods at the Keelhaul.
Together they escaped the prison and worked together to get to Commander Kovos Anavath, as Vyncis wanted revenge for being imprisoned for months with no charge. They eventually all learned Kovos was in fact a monstrous Deep Scion and after killed it, the group escaped.
Afterwards he gave a contract of his own to the adventurers that should they find themselves in the Ruby Atoll, there was an bad man there that needed dealt with.
