I will of course be putting him in the expedition; it seems right up his alley (heck, knowing him, he'd want to contribute funds in addition to skill)
But I can't decide where to put him. It seems like he has skills that would equally benefit groups 3 and 4. What do you guys suggest? Group 4 it is, thank you Curry!
