	The lone occupant of Chamber #001, '''Mr. Sparrow''' was the husband of [[Corra Sparrow]] and father to [[Quinn Sparrow]]. In a twist of events, it was revealed that it was Corra's husband who had paid off and had the (poorly trained) mages ambush their family and imprison them. Unable to recover his family, and unable to pay off the debts he procured and was hoping to cash in with the false-kidnapping, Mr. Sparrow himself was also banished. At one point it is believed he joined [[The City (The BackHalls)\|The City]] but could not bring himself to escape the halls, viewing them as his punishment for his unforgiveable crimes. He kept his ultimate power, the power of a [[Guidance Counselors\|Guidance Counselor]], but used it to only create his ultimate prison.

	When his own son Quinn finally came across him, he expected Quinn to attack out of vengeance, only to learn that Quinn pitied his dad, instead choosing to leave him to suffer in his isolation. Mr. Sparrow begged Quinn to find a way into the city, to find the exit that he was never brave enough to use. Quinn was able to make his Dad's request come true, but opted out at the last moment, instead choosing (like his father) to stay in the halls. Instead of out of punishment, Quinn did so out of hope...hope he could find his mom one day, and together they would leave.

			He keeps a room of clones of himself in a nearby locked chamber (Room 5 or so) so that if he is killed he can come back to quickly reclaim his room without losing time, power, or memories.

			He has his own pack of Dire Bears. Over time he's killed and skinned them to amass a large collection of bearskins that cover the walls and floors.

			He has a piece of '''Cryptid Machinery''' that breaks the backhalls rules, allowing him to age, as part of his suffering to "life full lifetimes in isolation".

			He spent some time trying to reverse engineer why the [[Yugoloth\|Yugoloths]] can seemingly teleport in the halls without suffering the teleportation curses or penalties, but to no avail.

			For fun, he also tried to break through the City's impenetrable walls using his own '''Sphere of Annihilation''', but even with years of pushing it into their walls, it's only made a small bowl-shaped divet.
