Lord of Blades

PLEASE NOTE: We know that a Lord of Blades already exists in the Eberron Campaign Setting. However, that Lord of Blades exists at a later time as he is a warforged, which do not exist in the time frame in which this campaign takes place. Besides, the name of one of the Lords of Dust probably wouldn't be known by a whole lot of people (in fact, you would have to go to Ashtakala in this campaign to hear it) so the DM does not foresee any problems confusing the two.

Basic Info

 * Name: Zendatlan


 * Race: Half Zakya Rakshasa/Half Jarilith (MMII)


 * Sex: Female


 * Age: Unknown


 * Level: High


 * Class: Dervish


 * Status: Apparently Deceased.


 * Abilities: Other that the typical fiendish, racial, and class abilities, it appeared to the PC's that Zendatlan could call bladed weapons to herself forming a near impenetrable barrier. They also noticed that at times her body seemed to be wreathed in flames, and when they had brought her close to death, an eruption of unholy flames erupted and dealt them great harm. It is unknown whether or not they killed her, as she disappeared into darkness, and when it had faded she was gone. However, her armor, weapons, and other equipment was left behind, so she is believed to be dead.


 * Description: Zendatlan appears the typical tiger colored rakshasa, except that she is exceptionally tall and has a thick mane. Since she was encountered by the party in Ashtakala, it is unknown whether she favored any other forms. In all instances where she was encountered she wore a form of chain mail with thin, pointed, almost hair like scales adorning it, colored both red and gold. In the confrontation with the players, she wore a golden helm with a spiked crown, accented with rubies of various size. Her four scimitars were worn two on the back and one at each side. Otherwise her only distinguishing feature is the slight burning smell ever present in her vicinity.

Character Events
1. Neria was the first of the party to meet the Lord of Blades...she apparently grew interested in the PC after discovering her connection with Atropos. This let to several incredibly excruciating torture sessions and Neria's eventual escape.

2. The Lord of Blades was then encountered as she attempted to wrest possession of Tailswisher from the Lord of Pleasures(Efaumas). This led to Larith's death and Tailswisher's eventual escape after Efaumas intervened to protect his...toy.

3. The Lord of Blades chases after the party and the fleeing slaves of Ashtakala into the storm. After a large drawn-out battle between the slaves and the Lord of Blades forces the party finally manages to kill the Lord of Blades.

4. The equipment she left behind was taken(no body was found), however, a few days later many of the items all disappear in the middle of night.
