Bloodwrack Medusa
The Bloodwrack Medusae are transformed Dark Elf Sorceresses of the Dark Convent. [1a]
Some emerge from their deep lairs of their own accord, joining Dark Elf armies as unreliable allies that go where they will to share their constant torment owth others. [1b]
History
Thousands of years in the past a group of Sorceresses of the convent in Ghrond used their arcane powers to make themselves even more beautiful than the gods themselves, drawing the wrath of the goddess Atharti. She would suffer no mortal competition to her vanity and transformed them into serpentine forms, constantly wracked by pain, their minds shredded save for a painful awareness of what they had lost. Morathi, who had no need of enhancements to her own natural beauty drove them from her city, offering her thanks to the goddess. [1a]
They would languish for many centuries beneath the Spiteful Peaks. [1a]
Finally Morathi took notice of them again and sent warriors to capture them, returning them to her with their faces masked and their claws bound. They are then chained to Bloodwrack Shrines to the goddess who struck them down and guided by dark magic to the forefront of the Dark Elf armies. [1a]
Notable
Powers
If a victim meets the eyes of a Medusae, their very lifeblood rebels and explodes out from their body whilst a deadly hint of the Medusaes own despair flows into any that come to near, save for other Dark Elves who enjoy the potent scent of suffering. [1a]
