Ezekial Lovecraft sells and buys fish and bait in the town of Witchaven. He sells all normal Fishing equipment from his shop called Lovecraft's Tackle.

His skin is a sickly yellow colour, similar to the villagers possessed by sea slugs, but he lacks the gills and bulging eyes that they also possess.

Slug Menace

During the Slug Menace quest, he gives the player page 2 of Brother Maledict's holy book, which he mysteriously received by someone who pushed it under his door, most likely agents of the Sea Slugs like Mayor Hobb, Brother Maledict, or Col. Jake O'Niall as these pages are used to craft special runes to be used as keys to free Mother Mallum from her imprisonment.

Trivia

• Ezekial's last name is a reference to the famous American author of horror, fantasy and science fiction, Howard Phillips Lovecraft. Ezekial mentions his family have always been either bait sellers or writers, and mentions his relative Howard. This is further confirmed by the nature of the quests he's involved in. Furthermore, the town in which he resides is similar to the fictional location of Innsmouth featured in a Lovecraft story.
• Instead of "Trade", like all other shop owners, he has a right-click option "Shop" that opens the shop's window.
