▲'''Call''' is an accountant at [[Call and Son and Daughters Accounting and Estate]] in [[Elendel]] on [[Scadrial]]. He and [[Garisel Daring]], whom [[Wayne]] knows as Short Boring Guy and Tall Boring Guy respectively, deal with Wayne's finances.{{book ref|mb7|16}}
== Appearance and Personality ==
He is relatively short, and he usually wears a bowler hat and a suit with a vest.{{book ref|mb7|14}} He wears spectacles, likely for reading. He has a professional air, and Wayne pejoratively refers to him as "Short Boring Guy". He is dating someone.{{book ref|mb7|16}}
==History==
In {{date|348|PC}}, Call and his colleague [[Garisel Daring]] were the managers of Wayne's finances. However, Wayne found them boring and hated talking about money, so he would constantly try to avoid them. The accountants repeatedly asked [[Reddi]] where to find Wayne; Reddi assumed they were trying to collect on a debt.{{book ref|mb7|10}} In fact, Wayne had secretly amassed a fortune of over twenty million [[boxing]]s in cash equivalents and another one hundred million in equity. He had made a series of successful investments in the technology and housing sectors, using [[aluminum]] as collateral.{{book ref|mb7|epilogue|3}} The accounting firm also kept Wayne's stock of [[bendalloy]] at their office.{{book ref|mb7|16}}
Call and Garisel eventually tracked Wayne down and tried to get him to diversify his portfolio to mitigate risk.{{book ref|mb7|16}}{{book ref|mb7|14}} They persuaded Wayne to come to their office and "traded" him a hat and glasses to get him to review his ledgers. Wayne came up with the idea of starting a professional [[noseball]] league in Elendel and Call noted that it would be expensive to build arenas in each octant. Call also showed him a new convertible from a carmaker named [[Victori]], and unsubtly convinced Wayne to invest in the company. Wayne also asked Call to set up payments to [[Allriandre]], as he had realized that delivering money to her in person helped him more than it helped her.{{book ref|mb7|14}} Wayne generally refused to discuss other aspects of his portfolio except for a few special requests.{{book ref|mb7|16}}
After Wayne's death, Call and Garisel became the executors of his estate. They met with Allriandre, who was the primary beneficiary of his will.{{book ref|mb7|epilogue|3}} They also met with [[Jaxy]] to give her funding to renovate [[Ranette]]'s shop.{{book ref|mb7|epilogue|5}} They presumably gave [[Marasi]] Wayne's lucky hat, and they were likely involved in setting up a long-running series of joke items that Wayne "bequeathed" to [[Wax]].{{book ref|mb7|epilogue|7}}
