Dag Zoreth

Dag Zoreth, born Brandon Caradoon, was a cleric and strifeleader of Cyric at Darkhold in the mid-to-late 14 century DR.

History
Dag was captured by the Zhentarim when he was a young boy and raised into the ways of evil, despite the fact that he was the son of a paladin. Eventually, Dag Zoreth would mastermind the attack on his father's keep and murder him in a sacrifice to the Dark Sun.

At the head of a force of Zhentarim soldiers in the, Dag Zoreth marched through the Clan Stoneshaft tunnels in the Sword Mountains to reach Thornhold on the Sword Coast North. On the way, they killed or enslaved many dwarves, though Bronwyn Caradoon and Ebenezer Stoneshaft would later retake Thornhold. Thanks to the corrupt Sir Gareth of the Knights of Samular, Dag Zoreth came close to possessing both Kezefbane and the rings of Samular, only to be foiled by Bronwyn.

Relations
He was the estranged brother of Bronwyn Caradoon.

Dag Zoreth had a half-elven child with the elf Ashemmi, named Cara. She was being raised by Bronwyn circa 1372 DR.

Malchior, a fellow Darkhold cleric of Cyric based in Waterdeep, had great influence over Dag's decisions there, thanks to a combination of blackmail, subtle deceit, and charisma. Dag and Malchior were the only ones aware of Sir Gareth Cormaeril's corruption and conversion to Cyric.

Abilities
As a cleric, he commanded the Trickery domain.
