Zalaam
Necromancers, like other spellcasters, can spend years or even
lifetimes studying in order to gain power and new abilities. It isn't
that difficult for a necromancer to raise undead and create zombies.
But to create a Zalaam requires intense power and skill. Zalaams are
beastly hunters of Good. They lurk in the shadows mastering
movement in the dark. They shred their enemies to pieces with their
massive claws. These undead creatures are known for their ferocity
and unwavering hatred of anything or anyone that is good.

Sehvet
The representation of lust is as beautiful as she is deadly. She was
once an elven member of nobility until her beloved had a scandalous
affair. Out of the pain, confusion, and disgust Sehvet left her city in
search of power. She vowed for revenge and eventually she found it.
She became a powerful spellcaster and trained with a longsword
and longbow. She even managed to find a new love, her three-
headed snake familiar, Pokusa. Now Sehvet roams the entire
Feywild just looking for individuals who have wronged their loved
ones. She is a vehicle of revenge who very much enjoys her job.
