Vaielnor Elenviel

Vaiel is an elven information broker and black market dealer native to Westmoor interested in clearing out the Cult of Tiamat presence in the county to acquire an item of interest - Impietas. His full name is Vaielnor Elenviel; once a priest in the Fellowship of the Seldarine, the Elven Church, his enemies used their connections in the church to excommunicate him, so he decided to replace the criminals he had fought. His crimes eventually landed him behind bars, but he mysteriously escaped; he was declared an apostate, an exile from elven lands, and the Litany of Arrows was sent after him. Vaielnor claims that the Blade in the Dark demanded he steal Impietas from the ruined temple on penalty of death. The Dawn's Heralds opted to give Vaielnor the wicked scimitar; after being wounded by the Blade in the Dark, a wicked fiend took the blade away into an ancient farmstead watched over by a hideous crone. Vaiel revealed to the party that he made a pact with Pazuzu ages ago to escape his imprisonment from the prisons in Myrkwood, and that all who heed the call of the Abyss must answer the demands of the Blade in the Dark. Vaielnor Elenviel was ultimately revealed to be the leader of the Esoteric Order of the Gargoyle, a cult of assassins that worships Pazuzu and follows the Blade in the Dark and the true culprit behind the priest-assassinations that had plagued Noslith when he himself slew the Archbishop and all the priests of Carmarthen to allow for the ascension of Anselm the Fallen.
