Messenger

The primary purpose of Messenger-type characters is to provide information.

Variants include:
 * Almost-Dead Guy
 * Courier
 * Doomed Appointment
 * Disconnected By Death
 * Herald
 * Impeded Messenger
 * Mysterious Informant
 * Spear Carrier

Sometimes messengers who bear bad news get killed, often via a Blofeld Ploy.
