Saberhagen

Overview
"Saberhagen is a male black cat, wearing a wide-brimmed pointed hat. He is constantly checking his store and pulling baked goods out of the oven, or arranging his shelves."

Description
Saberhagen is one of the NPCs that the player can work for to earn money. Working with him also raises the magic stat, which can help later in the game. Saberhagen, along with Ritter, is a sorcerer who has come to Dormaus to earn money for his studies. He owns and runs a bakery, in which he sells spellbread.

Saberhagen's Bakery
You can work at the bakery to raise your magic stat, where you learn how to make and sell spellbread. Doing so also raises Saberhagen's Interest.

Once you reach 1 Interest with Saberhagen, you can make a move on him. Doing so allows you to get a recommendation for a Digger's Permit

Having 2 Interest allows you to take things to the next level, and you can have sex with Saberhagen. Due to his inexperience, he does not know what to do, and accidentally turns you into a black cat.

Magic Spells
Saberhagen can teach the player how teleport, a useful skill to travel in the game, but it has one of the highest requirements in the game. While training, the player can be teleported to the North, where they travel until Kristoff saves them. He can also teach the player two transformation spells, BeFox and BeRabbit, which can be used on other players. Learning these spells raises the Magician level to 1, and are three of the five spells in the game.

Shop
Saberhagen is willing to purchase magical objects from the player, but does not sell anything.

Festival
You can join Saberhagen if the Festival is at 3, and during it he turns you into his idea of the perfect boyfriend, giving the you a Silver Key, which has +3 Magic and -1 Might

Marketplace
If you choose to wander the Marketplace, you can find Saberhagen organizing his romantic novels. Once he discovers you, he gets embarrassed and forces the player to help him clean his stall.
