Hask Malevanor is an abactor (priest) of the Blood of Vol and the high priest of the Crimson Monastery in Atur, the largest Seeker monastery in Karrnath. He is a mummy and a powerful necromancer.[1][2][3][4]
Description[]
Malevanor is a half-elf mummy in funerary wrappings wearing the blood-red robes of a priest of the Blood of Vol.[1]
Abilities[]
He has the powers of a mummy and powerful cleric.[1][2] Although alone he is not a great researcher, he uses his abilities as a mummy and cleric, and as a leader of the faith to command living and undead necromantic acolytes in the Crimson Monastery.[1]
As High Priest of the Crimson Monastery, he leads hundreds of priests across Karrnath.[5]
Activities[]
Due to his position as High Priest of the Crimson Monastery, Malevanor is the nominal leader of all Seeker temples and shrines in Karrnath.[5] Although the Blood of Vol has declined in popularity and many of its shrines and temples have closed or concealed themselves, the Crimson Monastery continues to be open and active and Malevanor and his priests have influence throughout the kingdom of Karrnath.[2]
When he's not leading a worship service, Malevanor spends much of his time secluded in his private ossuary.[1] He rarely leaves these chambers, but goes heavily cloaked when he does.[4]
He spends much of his time conducting necromantic research. Currently, Malevanor is creating a powerful undead creature called a grisgol. All he needs is the phylactery of a lich and his creation will be complete. Malevanor also spends some of his time leading religious ceremonies for the Blood of Vol.[1]
Malevanor and his parishioners publicly denounce the Emerald Claw and they claim no hostility towards Breland.[3]
History[]
Hask Malevanor died and returned as a mummy over fifty years ago. He was personally involved in developing the Odakyr Rites that led to the creation of the Karrnathi undead soldiers, and claimed that Karrnathi undead are animated by the patriotic spirit of the nation.[3][6]
