I've never looked at his stat block in the NPC section. I actually thought he was a TM from reading the adventure.
A mistake when they stat'd him maybe?
Or if you want to get super conspiracy theory Celedyr planned it to trap the runners in the QZ. So that then the runners could uncover what's going on and retrieve the data to incriminate NeoNET, because Celedyr is trying to make a power play against Villiers, or something...
