Storytellernoun
One who relates tales; An historian. In contempt.

In such a satire all would seek a share,
And every fool will fancy he is there;
Old storytellers too must pine and die,
To see their antiquated wit laid by;
Like her, who miss’d her name in a lampoon,
And griev’d to find herself decay’d so soon. Dryden.Company will be no longer pestered with dull, dry, tedious storytellers. Jonathan Swift, Polite Conversation.
