A Greedy Begger
 

He spawns just outside the gates at the docks, a little halfling guy. On live he always had a torch in his off hand, and when you gave him some money [any amount], he would follow you around and act as a pet, but you couldnt control him, like an enchanter pet.

are u saying hes not there or somethings wrong with him?

He is there and otherwise does nothing else.

Any evidence this guy existed prior to velious? I never personally saw or used him :)

Should not exist. In classic beggars always had actual "names". There never was a beggar right by the docks.

This guy is very classic, I know forsure. ill ding around and see what i can find.

Remember seeing him WAAY back. But that was around velious launch. Not sure if he's classic classic classic. :)

I remember killing him and going, "OH NO FACTION HIT!"

Torch on his loot table, post dating back before Luclin and it also says how u give him $ he is ench pet.

I thought you were talking about East Freeport docks, because there is also a greedy beggar standing there which shouldn't be there.

i remember an npc acting like that, although i can't confirm the name or anything..
