A truly ancient creature, steeped in the elder lore of the universe, Abolisher of Bloodlines has been fascinated by the deeper secrets of the world from an early age. She is a skilled sage and purveyor of knowledge who maintains a modest business in town.
Background: A peasant woman with an active imagination and keen wit, Abolisher of Bloodlines used her wit, cunning and exceptional looks to rise far above her birth station. Cold‐hearted and pragmatic she only ever attached herself to those of value to her. Her last target was the hermit mage Kevern Tangye who dwelled in the Tower of Night, a fabled site dominating the skyline of a mighty city. Swiftly divining his vampiric nature, Abolisher of Bloodlines continued her pursuit of the mage, who finally granted her request to bestow his dark gift upon her. Free to continue her pursuit of knowledge without the prospect of death,
Abolisher of Bloodlines abandoned her mentor at the moment of his defeat at the hands of the Company of the Burning Brand. Her exhaustive research eventually uncovered the Crimson Altar of Kulan‐Wyr and over the intervening decades she has shared its secrets with her brethren. The altar has promised her access to a lost repository of knowledge and thus she enthusiastic supports its special purpose.
Personality: Inquisitive and thoughtful, base emotions rarely cloud Abolisher of Bloodline’s judgement or actions. Obsessed with the search for knowledge, she is extremely single‐minded. She is also wildly vain and enjoys her immortality. Injuries that could permanently mar her appearance terrify her.
Mannerisms: Abolisher of Bloodlines loves to show off her encyclopedic knowledge and often offers a far more complex explanation than required. Her replies to even the simplest questions can last over a half‐hour. Extremely vain, during conversations she often uses minor magic to remove tiny (and imagined) stains and blemishes from her clothes.
Hooks: The PCs likely first meet Abolisher of Bloodlines when they need a magical item identifying or a piece of ancient lore deciphering. She is happy to carry out such tasks, but is wary of groups containing obviously good‐aligned clerics and paladins. She never lies to such individuals for fear they will discern her duplicity. In the future, she could act as a buyer for ancient and obscure texts. The PCs may also meet her shopping for expensive clothes and jewelry. A valued customer of several clothing emporiums she has accounts with the best dressmakers in the city. Alternatively, she could be encountered on the way home from a shopping trip. Accompanied by several shop assistants, she makes a tempting target for opportunistic muggers.
