A portly human with a curly red beard and easy grin, Tensar's held the same job for most of his 70 years. Why he chose to spend his life operating an employment agency, albeit Sigil's best known and most successful one, is dark to everyone. A man with his leadership skills and command of magic could've been an explorer, an inventor, even a great ruler. But if asked about his avocation, Tensar'll sit back in his patched leather chair, fold his arms on his weathered desk, and say the words he must've repeated a thousand times: "I provide the greatest of all gifts: the gift of work. A life without work, my friend, is worse than no life at all."
While anyone can engage Tensar in light conversation — a compulsive talker, he'll chatter for hours on subjects as diverse as githzerai poetry, vegetarian recipes, and mathematical theory — he only considers job applicants who've been referred to him by an officer of the Education Bureau in the Hall of Information, or who have letters of recommendation from reputable dignitaries. Tensar interviews qualified applicants (asking questions about their background, training, and previous employment), making liberal use of detect lie and know alignment spells as necessary. Applicants who convince Tensar of their integrity are asked to sign a Condition of Employment Pledge, then sent to the employers. Within a few days, Tensar contacts each employer to evaluate the applicant's performance.
Anyone whom Tensar successfully places in a job becomes a trusted friend, privy to Tensar's remarkable fount of information about life in Sigil. 'Course, Tensar can make that life difficult for those who disappoint him. An applicant who dishonors an employer and is fired will be a long time finding any more honest work.
Tensar'll make sure of it.
