Barrabus the Gray

Barrabus the Gray, sometimes called The Grey, is a Netherese assassin of unmatched quality and skill. He is forced to work for the tiefling Herzgo Alegni, who is in charge of the city Neverwinter (for the shades) who wields a sword that bears much resemblance to Charon's Claw (called "Claw" which generates walls of ash). Barrabus is of slightly less-than-average height, wiry, and in perfect physical condition.

Barrabus fights with an enchanted main-gauche and a sword. It is also noted that he has many other enchanted items given to him by the Netherese, including enchanted boots that make him silent, gloves of wall climbing, and many other miscellaneous rare items. He is put to use as an assassin, spy, and warrior slaying Thayans in the Neverwinter forest with ease. He despises being a slave to the Netherese and does not serve them willingly. He wants nothing less than to live of his own free will. He is imbued with the shadow-stuff of the Netherese and gains their longevity and ability to wrap shadows around themselves.
