Zud

Zud was the chieftain of an orc tribe that feuded with another group of orcs that once belonged to the same tribe led by Mol. The tribe resided in the ruins of Myth Drannor circa 1369 DR.

Possessions
Zud possessed quite a few magic items he and his tribe scavenged from the ruined Myth Drannor. Among the items found on his body were a wand of frost, a wand of healing, and potions of antidote.

His most prized possessions, however, were hidden under a lock and key inside a chest: gauntlets of dexterity and Deathbane, an enchanted staff that belonged to a blind cleric Beriand.

History
In 1369 DR, Zud's tribe was occupying territory in the ruins of Myth Drannor. His tribe was fighting for territory with the newly arrived Cult of the Dragon and against the splintered group of orcs led by his old opponent, captain Mol.

Later the same year, both forces of the tribe and the cult encountered a a group of adventurers from Phlan making their way to the center of the ruins, Castle Cormanthor to stop the cult's nefarious plans of conquering he Moonsea region. The adventurers confronted Zud, along with two of his most loyal advisers, an orc shaman and an orc witch doctor in the Main Halls of the Dwarven Dungeons. Soon after Zud's death, his hated opponent Mol fell to the same group of adventurers..
