NPC Wednesdays #164

The main aventurian calendar consists of 12 months of 30 days each. Each month dedicated to one of the twelve gods. The last 5 days of each year belong to the Nameless One.

While the aventurian year ends in summer, today is New Year’s Eve, so I present an agent of the Nameless One your heroes could encounter in the last days of the aventurian year, perhaps sent to reinforce a local cult (or wipe out an incompetent cult that runs the danger of being uncovered by your heroes.

Maybe the first few times the heroes only encounter the aftermath

Zorkarash strikes quickly, preferably under the cover of magical darkness and spreading fear by Black Terror and/or Horiphobus.

His blade can deal cold burning damage (+2D6, if more than 7 points are dealt by this, the target gains a level of fear) at will up to 13 times.

If fighting strong numbers he might add 3 protection to his armour and zip around the battlefield using Armatrutz and Axxeleratus.

Should your heroes get him eventually, the will discover him to be a nightelf, called Shakagra, a daimonid interbreed of elves and demons.
