Shinthala Deepcrest

Shinthala Deepcrest was a druid of Silvanus and member of the Elder Circle of the Emerald Enclave during the 14 and 15 centuries DR. "I find it ironic that the people of the Vilhon continue to poison their own farms, streams, and air for the sake of profit. The destruction caused by these people goes far beyond the borders of the Vilhon, but this is my home. I find my actions limited by my status of Grand Druid, and look forward to the time when I can find a suitable replacement. Then, I will finally be able to make a difference."

History
She was born in Cedarsproke in the Gulthmere Forest in the.

In the late 1400s DR, Shinthala felt unable to act as she would've liked because of the chaos caused by the Spellplague, which had altered the natural ecosystems and driven Cindermoon, the elven member of the Elder Circle, insane.

Finally, in the, the boy prophet of Lathander, Stedd Whitehorn, arrived and successfully cured Cindermoon. However, a large pirate fleet led by the Chosen of Umberlee, Evendur Highcastle, followed him in order to kill him. Shinthala alone agreed to join Stedd's companions and the Turmish navy in fighting them. During the battle, Shinthala and others faced Evendur and Shinthala was seriously injured. Finally, Stedd joined the fight and saved Shinthala's life.
