Sithsia. Necromancer, race unknown, Status UNKNOWN
Very old and powerful mage. Featured in the book The Forest of Night. Helped to erect the Zaulfung Stones along with Farn's Company. Prophesied the death of Dzree. Created the Forest of Night near Leth Deriel. Around the time of Sorrow's War, was seen visiting Sorrow. Supposedly the two know each other from a long time back.


Velmix Strawn Necromancer Status ALIVE
is considered to be a powerful human necromancer.
Body gives off lightning when killed, then disappears. Green Fog (poison)
Can tear off a finger and cause scourges to appear.
Points at target and cases them to speak gibberish and hinders all spell casting abilities.

During his first visit, in 356, he recruited elves to form an army for "The One and True King", presumably Teiro. It is of note that at the Necropolis in Aesry Surlaenis'a, there is a headstone that marks the gravesite of one "Velmix Strawn, born 199 years after the Victory of Lanival the Redeemer, died 225 years AtV." This perhaps is the source of the rumor that Velmix rose from his own grave. He uses a raven familiar that talks in rhymes, gave prophecy regarding Teiro returning. If you happen upon him, he is dangerous, and his staff seems to make some poisonous dust or smoke or gas. He was seen near at least one of those awful Goblin invasions west of the Crossing last week.

To further add to this mystery, Alishana reports that at the Necropolis in Aesry Surlaenis'a, there is a headstone that marks the gravesite of one "Velmix Strawn, born 199 years after the Victory of Lanival the Redeemer, died 225 years AV."

(356/359) Moon mages reported that Velmix was seen in Sorrow's Keep along with Sidhlot and Sithsia.
More recently (370) was associated with Grishnok, Jomay, and others in attacking the five provinces, see Outcast War.
In 371 , disabled the Turtles used by Moon Mages.


Lord Sorrow (was born Sura Ravenblades) Moonmage, Status PRESUMED DEAD unknown if he walked

Sorrow was a Moon Mage of immense power who attacked Zoluren and other provinces. The resulting war was, in many respects, on the scale of the previous Gorbesh War or the subsequent Outcast War. He later died turing an ritual at the Standing Stones near Riverhaven.

Was a member of the Crystal Hand, possibly prior to the establishment of the Moon Mage guild). He had been offered a seat on the Moon Mage Council at one point, but turned it down. Also helped Dzree destroy a city during time of the Dragon Priests. Son of one of the last Emperors of the empire. Human Lord of Mir'Kazeril, which is to the east of Sicle Grove. Knows Sithsia, but thinks that she is "quite mad". His moongates need two moons? According to Prayk, he wanted to destroy the Moon Mage tower in Zoluren.

Sorrow was not very active for a long time prior to his attempt to steal Romeode's ring that was bought at Terald's auction.

Employed many, including Parnore, Shartug, Darkensi, Asharvik, Prayk, Callava. Began attacks in 359 AV. Died in 363 at the Stones in a disasterous explosion. Afterward, Sidhlot took his books.


Callava Chalyl gnome assassin. Status DEAD
Sister to Yutwian the current Barbarian Pit Master in SteelClaw Clan.

She first came to notice when she was contracted by Sorrow to attack and keep the Barbarian Guild occupied and out of his hair. Callava stole the guild roster and used it to target those Barbarians of high standing in the guild. Several years later Callava resurfaced with a new contract to once again assassinate Barbarians who's names appeared on the destroyed guild registers. Eventually it was learned that she had been hired by the then Pit Mistress Raellia to frame and discredit her twin sister T'Kiel, the SteelClaw Clan Barbarian Guildleader.

Eventually, during fierce fighting Callava was killed and captured by Poshly and Chrystian. Callava walked when T'Kiel beheaded her. T'Kiel placed the severed head in a glass box and put it on display in the Barbarian Guild hall.



Prayk, Magus Status UNKNOWN
served under Lord Sorrow during the Sorrow War. He was destroyed along with Lord Sorrow while assisting in a magical ritual that went awry, killing everyone in and around the Zaulfung swamp. His wife is Darsanya Chevarre. Sister-in-law Lissanda Chevare.
At one point Prayk was rescued from Sorrow's Dungeon with the assistance of Hermit Gadmadorz who's father was one of the original builders of Sorrow's Keep.


Predator Darkensi Swiftclaws Prydaen Status ALIVE
During the Sorrow War, Darkensi was a Lieutenant for Lord Sorrow and led Elpalzi forces as well as S'lai forces against the various races. The only furless person that Darkensi considered an equal and friend was Prayk, and when Prayk and Lord Sorrow died, Darkensi had no reason to remain in the war so he pulled back to the Hub of Sunfall.

Munira race unknown guild unknown Status UNKNOWN
possible Red Sash Pirate known confederate of terak a pirate captain

Sadiaer human guild unknown Status DEAD
Minion of Sorrow's that walked the Starry road Moliko 363, In response, an evil greenish-grey moongate began to form, and we braced outselves, fearing all the brave effort had gone for nothing. To our joy, and to Sadiaer's horror and despair, the gate failed half-formed, and faded to mere flickering wisps of colour before vanishing entirely! Sadiaer's ghost cried out in denial, and then the corpse departed, as the mage was called to the Starry Road for his last walk.

A little known human mercenary who gained prominence during the Sorrow War as one of the more visible lieutenants serving Lord Sorrow leading the S'lai forces in repeated attacks upon Zoluren. Many brave defenders fell victim to his crow-feather decorated bows, but it was his control of the elemental forces of fire and lightning that caused the large numbers of deaths associated with his presence on the battlefield. The number of S'lai deaths due to his spells lends credence to the beliefs of some that his grasp on sanity was less than solid. Rumours claim a group of Zoluren citizens attempted to buy Sadiaer's loyalty during the war failing only to gather sufficient funding to meet his price. The blast that destroyed Lord Sorrow is known to also have taken the life of Sadiaer.


Sidhlot Silverveil, Necrolord elf Status UNKNOWN last seen in the Gash

A very old and powerful elven necromancer. Founder of the Bone Elves. Last seen entering a
cave systen in the Gash with Sorrow's book(s) and disappearing.Originally a Mountain Elf, he founded the Bone Elves, a splinter group. He and Morganae are now enemies, though there are rumors that she is his mother, lover, or sister. Killed Anlorahle, one of Morganae's daughters, on the gondola.

He corrupted Iron Clan into foul and evil tools in order to make them a weapon against Morganae. Iron Clan was composed of living beings, however, which has not been done before or since by Sidhlot or any anybody else. Might have been very draining for him.

Resurrected ?????? Sorrow a long time ago, an early event leading to their strange alliance. Won't tell why he resurrected Sorrow. In the event that Sorrow died, he was to be placed in charge. In late 361, contacted and negotiated with Sirolarn on behalf of Sorrow in late 361. Following Sorrow's death, he was assisted by Profiteer Strybjorn in taking Sorrow's books south to his home. Around the time of Sorrow's War, was taking 'tokens' from Bards to help with his creepy magic stuff. Appears to feed off these tokens by linking souls to it. Was able to 'compel' Marstan (a mere Necromancer) with his powers. Following the war and his trek south with Strybjorn, he had a magical shield that nobody was able to penetrate.

Sidhlot is nearly as old as Queen Morganae, and though the nature of their relationship is unknown, he hates her with a passion. Early on in her reign, Sidhlot led an uprising in an attempt to depose the Mountain Queen. His failure brought banishment, and the formation of the necromantic Bone Clan. Since then, Sidhlot has taken every opportunity to stir up bloodshed and chaos.
His daughter is Anashia Silvervail , who with Ammagio, led a party to get the Bonedancer's book
and return it to Sidhlot.

when the Sluagh Prince stole the Black Standing Stone.


A Massive Sluagh Prince Status UNKNOWN
The sluagh prince is a foul-smelling, foul-tempered, foul-looking beast that makes a mother-in-law seem positively angelic. Seven feet tall, musclebound, and wearing some kind of ragged, odiferous hide over its own none too lovely grey skin, it stares with bloodshot eyes and an evil leer. It is a living creature rather than an undead one, though you can't imagine it being any uglier or meaner were it undead.
It is carrying a black standing stone.


A Giant sluagh king Status UNKNOWN

It is a living creature rather than an undead one, though you can't imagine it being any

It seems much more intelligent than the lesser variety, looming with a greater strength, and moving deftly about with agile precision.
