Shikata

Shikata was the leader of a salamander tribe that dwelled within the lower levels of Dorn's Deep in 1281 DR.

"When I am done killing you, your body shall be cast into the flames for our spirits to feast upon."

- Shikata to a group of adventurers.

History
Like the rest of his salamander tribe, Shikata was once a native to the Elemental Plane of Fire that had come through the portals within the Great Forge of Dorn's Deep.

Shikata and his salamanders oversaw the mines within Dorn's Deep and its enslaved svirfneblin workers for his ally Marketh, as well as guarding the entrance to his palace, referring to the area as the latter's "domain." Despite his best efforts, he could not prevent several salamanders of his tribe from going rogue and forming a faction bent on asserting dominance over the other creatures dwelling in the Lower Levels of Dorn's Deep.

Relationships
Shikata was allied with the mad drow wizard Malavon Despana, the bandit Marketh, and their boss Belhifet.
