History
As a female of House T'sarran, Velasta had been schooled as a cleric of Kiaransalee along with her identical twin sister, Velina T'sarran. However, over the years both sisters had developed an abiding hatred for each other. In 1372 DR, during the Silence of Lolth, Velasta and her sister worked with the rest of their house in overthrowing the Lolth-worshipping drow of Maerimydra. Subsequently they were sent to track down any refugees from the city under the supervision of their aunt, Dorina T'sarran], and made their way to the [[drow outpost of Szith Morcane. On Marpenoth 12, they manage to overthrow House Morcane in Szith Morcane and, under the orders of Dorina, Velasta is given free rein to turn the dead clerics of Lolth into Quth-maren and use them to pillage the settlement, while her sister Velina is sent into the Deep Wastes as a scout.

While her sister is assigned to the raiding parties by Dorina, Velasta is made part of a Hunter-killer team of drow that are only assembled to deal with true threats to Szith Morcane. At some point after a group of adventurers launch a raid on Szith Morcane, Velasta and Velina are raised as undead revenants.
