Race: Human (undead)
Class: Shadowmage

Birth region: Lordaeron
Specific area/town: Tirisfal Glades, a coastal mansion west of present-day Scarlet Monastery

Most persons on this list have been betrayed at one point or another and can therefore also be considered her foremost later enemies.

Known enemies:
Syskae Anahain, Razenor Dawn, Bishop Fortesgue, Exaythe the Abjurer, The Council in all its incarnations, Dwarven Senate, The Dark Sphere, most Church and guard organisations.

Description: In her undead state, two gaping black wounds decorate her otherwise shriveled, vile face (having once been shot through the cheeks by a dwarven rifleman). Her body is bony and runty, naturally after some years of continuing decay. The illusions of her false identities usually bear distinct similarities to her old living self.

Personality: Proud and highly megalomanic, yet patient, cunning and silver-tongued, as evidenced by various plots and political stirrings over the years. Moments of tyrannical violence have occurred, when exercising exaggerated means to bring subordinates to order. Very loyal to superiours; tends to be drawn to charismatic men aspiring to power.
