![[EldranaPic.png]] # Eldrana Moonbane _Elf Archmage | [[Black Network]] (formerly) | [[Harpers]] Custody_ ## Summary Ancient dark archmage who once ran the [[Black Network]] in [[Neverwinter]], following [[Manshoon]] and worshipping [[Bane]]. Her rivalry with [[Ravenna]] the Viper led to her capture and torture in the [[Gloomcellar]], where [[Ravenna]] cut out her tongue. The party rescued her from the prison alongside [[Nira Mistwood]] and other prisoners. Now held in [[Harpers]] custody—still plotting her return to power and revenge against the [[Gilded Gallows]]. %% ## At a Glance Ageless elegance with silvery hair cascading like moonlit river waves. Blue eyes filled with unsettling wisdom and hints of torment. Dark flowing robes with arcane symbols, some faded from imprisonment. Communicates via telepathy—her tongue was removed during [[Ravenna]]'s torture. Rose to power under [[Manshoon]]'s direct guidance, seizing control of the [[Black Network]] in [[Neverwinter]] through dark magic and loyalty to [[Bane]] and [[Fzoul Chembryl]]. Ruled the city's underworld with an iron fist until [[Ravenna]] outmaneuvered her. Now desperate, cunning, and burning with hatred for the [[Gilded Gallows]]. ## Personality Sadistic and cunning. Speaks in deliberate, haunting telepathic cadences that echo as if from cavern depths. Proud but wounded—imprisonment has made her more wary while intensifying her desire for revenge. Unconsciously hums a lullaby from the [[Gloomcellar]] depths. ## Quote _"In the dance of shadows, it is not the brightest star, but the deepest darkness that reigns supreme."_ ## Stats **Archmage** (MM 342).
