Plot summary

Hannah and the Ice Caves

Main article: Hannah and the Ice Caves (Plot)

Kanrik and his fellow thieves were tasked with finding a mysterious treasure by their leader Galem. When he found an adventurous Usul telling her tales of daring do, he made up a story that "his sister and his village" suffering a strange illness and needing a way to save them. They travelled to the Lost Desert together, where they entered an unknown tomb laden with traps. Hannah was then hit with a strange curse and was left for dead, while Kanrik and a couple of his comrades carried anything they could find; in this case, a coffin. Galem thought to use the creature inside the coffin to steal a treasure from deep under the ice of Terror Mountain. After reaching the Mountain, however, Masila coaxed the Kanrik into opening the coffin and using it to overthrow Galem. At first reluctant in betraying his leader, he went against his better judgement and released a creature from the coffin, the Bringer of Night. After a clash between the creature's army and his guild, Kanrik was banished from the guild. He was then knocked out with a poisonous liquid by Masila, and abandoned on Terror Mountain.

He soon ran into Hannah and a mysterious Neopet and, after a brief clash of their own, offered to make up for his past transgressions and join them in stopping his old guild and the monster's army. They ran into Armin's species, the Bori, who helped them push back the guild. After the Bringer of Night was finally killed, Kanrik and Armin carried Hannah to the top of the mountain where Taelia was able to lift the curse and save Hannah's life.

Kanrik was last seen taking over Galem's place as the new leader of the Thieves Guild.
