Note that "Furrier" is a play off Führer, as this entire series of quests is based off Indiana Jones, who fights against Nazi German soldiers in his archaeological expeditions.

There is an additional implied pun. In both German and Egyptian culture, the occupation of furrier is considered extremely low-class, and generally associated with individuals on the fringe of society.
The real life Führer was born a peasant, and was extremely sensitive to reminders of his low birth - especially since those around him continued to hold it against him throughout his career as a dictator.
LOW drop rate. one pelt per 4-5 kills for me.
good quest for savage leather farmers.

What to do
Description
The commander can be most generous to those who demonstrate their loyalty, and I know of something that you can do to curry favor with him. Before building up his... ehh... workforce, he dealt in the furs of animals. He is quite skilled in the art of leatherworking. The furrier can do wonders with even the most tattered pelts. The dried oasis to the east is said to be home to a rare breed of coyote. Their furs would make a very thoughtful gift.

The commander is quite busy now, I'm afraid. The demands of an operation such as this require much of his attention these days. While you wait to speak with him, why don't you mingle with some of our guests?
