Description[]
The High Priest of Arkham's Silver Twilight Lodge, Sanford is a tall, slim man with an air of breeding about him. An antiquarian by trade, he holds a degree of influence in nearly every organisation in the city. Despite his standing in the community, there are many who fear the man, and rumours abound regarding the unwholesome deeds perpetrated in both his name and that of the Lodge.
Feeders from Within (EXP)[]
During the events of the novel, Sanford inducted Phillip Avery into the Lodge as a way to gain the services of the Mi-Go known as Mr. Stone and his Byakhee servants.
Behind the Mythos[]
