Kalydria Darkeye is an elf who leads a faction of the Ravagers, a death cult dedicated to Gruumsh, the Ruiner.
Description[]
Appearance[]
Because numerous alchemists and shamans produce a strict regimen of concoctions to enlarge Slaughter Lords' size and musculature beyond natural limits, Kalydria is much larger than a typical elf. She typically wouldn't wear armor or carry a shield, instead wielding dual greatswords or a large spear.[2]
Personality[]
Having become a Slaughter Lord implies Kalydria is a devout follower of Gruumsh steeped in religious lore, and an ambitious leader with an exceptionally aggressive thirst for combat and a great talent for intimidation. Her tactical acumen would also be enhanced by her alchemical treatments.[2]
Biography[]
In the Tal'Dorei Campaign Setting Reborn, set in 836 PD, a high-level adventure hook called Blood of the Ruiner involves infiltrating the makeshift base of a cell of Ravagers led by Kalydria. Her cultist faction has just performed a gory ritual that both transformed her into a Slaughter Lord and also twisted some number of the Bramblewood's giant spiders into demonfeed spiders. The Shields of the Plain operating out of Westruun seek powerful adventurers to find out what her cell is planning.[3]
