Chairon Knorbury

A musclebound female goliath veteran with a mangled leg. She uses her glaive as a crutch and stands only when necessary. She was chosen to lead the panicked townsfolk of Northshire because of her skill with a spear and shield. She earned her leg wound after defending a group of townsfolk from the undead husks attacks. Rallier Chairon burns with dull fury at her inability to help her people.

Rallier Chairon shared the following information to the guild's party:


 * She had a strange vision the night the attacks began; a star in the night sky turning jet black and glowing with an evil light.
 * She believes that the Izvah'Tehragarb, which is said to have kept them safe for so long, has somehow been corrupted by evil and is the cause of the attacks.
 * She doesn’t know how the relic was corrupted, but she knows that the Keeper dismissed the acolytes that helped her tend to the Izvah'Tehragarb's protection several months ago. They came to her with their concerns then and some of them departed for Viveni to seek an audience with the Temple of Baatei (Seraph of Life after death). Chairon sighs and says that none have heard from them; she suspects that they were caught in a skirmish and perished before reaching the city.
 * Some townspeople have tried to escape but they were killed by the undead when they reach the outside of town
 * There are too many weak and injured people to evacuate the town
 * She grimly states that she can hardly fight in her current condition, the militia is not trained enough, and that the entire village will be overrun by tonight. She believes that their only hope is to destroy the Izvah'Tehragarb, it's the only choice she sees to save the town.

Chairon has not been able to convince the Keeper to surrender the Izvah'Tehragarb, but she thinks the party might be able to do so. “After all,” she says with a wink, “You were sent to us by the Temple of Baatei, were you not?" If the characters truthfully reveal that they were not, she smiles wide and narrows her cunning eyes. “Not that the Keeper knows that, eh?” The party need not use this lie, but it is one way to gain access to the Keeper’s abode.
