Raznel

Appearance

You see Raznel.
She appears to be a Human.
She is hunched over and appears to be old and wrinkled. She has perspicacious brilliant viridian eyes and weathered brown skin. She has long silky, intricately braided ebon hair pulled back into a mane which cascades down to her waist. She has a gaunt face, a crooked nose and long, slender fingers.
She is in good shape.
She is wearing a crude sigil-etched talisman, a ratty old bloodstained pack, some billowing dark grey robes, a dwarf bone bracelet, a dusty potion bag, and a pair of beaded leather sandals.

Background

Raznel has long been a thorn in the side of Wehnimer's Landing. She first appeared in 5110, working with Grishom Stone to help plague the citizens of Wehnimer's Landing and try to recapture the shards of urnon he needed to try to rebuild his golem. She has often been associated with dark forces and in service to them, or allied with them. After she was seemingly destroyed in Wehnimer's Landing in 5111, she re-appeared years later in Talador in 5114 where her cabin was discovered on the outskirts of that barony. There it was learned she had been working for years with Lord Thermon of the Taladorian Noble Council she eventually was brought back to Wehnimer's Landing to secretly help Sir Davard in Talador's war against the town.

Her dark alliance with Davard was eventually exposed and she escaped again, only later to be hunted down by Malvernus and other heroes where she was defeated, but escaped death. She has not been seen since, but it has been confirmed she still lives, likely holed up somewhere recouping and healing, and rebuilding her power. There have been various undead attacks or plagues that have occured in or around Wehnimer's Landing in recent months, all of which have been said to perhaps be the work of the witch Raznel. It is unclear how old Raznel is, but it is said she was once a member of the Hall of Mages, who was exiled due to her draw to dark magic. She is best known for her talents in blood magic, divination, curses and sometimes necromancy. She is also the one responsible for the curse that turned Thrayzar and Drangell into an orc and troll respectively.
