Lan Hazal

LAN HAZAL, PRIEST OF THE BLOOD

This tall Karrn is lean and weathered, but he has a strong presence. His voice is deep and resonant, and it is hard not to listen to his words. Despite his short, iron-gray hair, he is still in the prime of his life; his gray eyes are sharp and clear, and his pride and confidence are visible in his bearing. He wears a beautiful black clock trimmed with purple silk over a well-tailored outfit of black and gray.

Lan is a charismatic and wealthy man, and he is very careful to conceal his impressive mystical powers from the world at large. Unless there is no other alternative, he only performs magic in the depths of the temple. He takes the use of magic very seriously, and rarely uses spells even to help his parishioners. He believes that people should be able to solve their own problems, and while he offers spiritual advice and even financial assistance to other members of the community, he only uses magic for the most serious situations.
Lan is not an evil man, and he does not always approve of the actions of the Order of the Emerald Claw. However, he feels that it is not his place to question the undead champions of Vol. He has an astonishing gift for enchantment, and he spends much of his time producing magic items and weapons for Lady Tarra’az.
His other primary interest is extending his family library. Lan has invested a fortune to recover scrolls and texts from Xen’drik, seeking more information about the origin of the first vampires. He might hire a party to locate a tome on his behalf, or cross paths with a character who has accidentally acquired a book he needs; alternately, the party might need a rare book that can only be found in the Hazal library.
