Iyraclea

Iyraclea was a chosen of Auril living in the Great Glacier during the Rage of Dragons of 1373 DR.

History
Iyraclea settled in the Great Glacier long time ago, proclaiming to be the most powerful cleric of Auril even. In time she constructed a ice castle and assembled a monstrous army, including also some ice devils. In 632 DR, disgusting for their ideas of harmony between races she sends an army commanded by the lich Vrandak the Burnished to lay siege to Myth Ondath, and raises great winter storms that lash the city throughout the year. This attack is called the Ice Queen's Winter. Auril, pleased, granted her more power and Iyraclea's power becomes common knowledge. Some time after with the assistance of Auril herself Iyraclea thieved the Gatekeeper's Crystal from the Outlands. In 633 DR Iyraclea after a year-long siege using the Gatekeeper's Crystal destroyed the city of Myth Ondath, including its mythal. However the artifact power was too big and cancelled also Iyraclea's army and her general Vrandak Around 1372 Iyraclea was known for her habit of kidnapped young wizards for unknown motives In 1373 DR Sammaster, master of Cult of the Dragon that had started a premature Rage of Dragons that year, offered her an alliance and Iyraclea agreed. So Sammaster send to her the white dragon dracolich Zethrindor and a host of dragons. Zethrindor helped Iyraclea to conquer all the Great Glacier and after they marched over Sossal. The conquer of the druidic nation proceeded well until Brimstone approached Zethrindor, whispering that Iyraclea plotted to betray Sammaster with power hidden in the ruins in the Novularond Mountains. Soon the white dracolich went to the ruin hoping to achieve that power for himself. Iyraclea also discovered that information and marched to the same location. At the ruins Dorn Graybrook's party arrived too. During the three-sided-battle Zethrindor killed the Ice Witch in a terrible battle.
