Description[]
The Ministry Cache Agent is an NPC located inside of The Understrand. He can be found by using Shadow Travel / Shadow's Flight near Silhuett, who spawns randomly around the First Layer or at chance by using Shadow Travel / Shadow's Flight on an area that is glowing with an ominous purple light.
If you have Ally reputation or higher with The Ministry, he will hand over the Deepspindle, a Deepscorn Casque and the Darkened Bastion without a fight. This only applies via Silhuett encounters, however. Repeat encounters with the ally method via Silhuett will only grant one of the items from the set instead of all three.

Trivia[]
- You must beat him within 5 minutes, otherwise you will be teleported out of the Understrand.
- Burning the agent to death will cause nothing to drop, instead after four sorry seconds you will be sent back.
- Strangely enough, burning the agent with twisted puppets causes him to get up, supposedly with half his health back, like how Phoenix Flames works.
- The Agent also uses the word ''slug'' as an insult, as seen in his execution and normal dialogue. Whether or not calling someone a slug has a deeper meaning is unknown.
- The Agent is also a Celtor, this is shown by the markings on his face when he gets executed and fades away.
