Overview
Daniel Watkins is a professor at Georgetown, teaching a core course to first-year law students. He teaches Evidence, and is especially familiar with the kind of evidence (both mundane and magical) that would stand up in a UCAS courtroom. Generally known to be a soft-spoken and reserved professor, Watkins is nonetheless appreciated by his students for the personal interest he takes in their learning.
Watkins is a normal SINner living a normal, above-board life. He encountered the shadows during the events of Broken Tusk and has a positive opinion of runners after a team helped him lay his father's remains to rest. That said, he will be hesitant to assist in any brazenly criminal activity, especially activities that risk collateral damage.
When calling him, it would be wise to phrase all questions as academic hypotheticals. Careless phrasing that risks making him an accessory will nix his willingness to assist.
