Illasera

Illasera the Quick was one of the group of Bhaalspawn known as the Five. She was the first to die by the game's protagonist's hand after she had been sent to kill them.

Illasera appears right at the beginning of plot of the expansion pack Baldur's Gate II: Throne of Bhaal. She challenges the player character after a prophecy spoken by the stone heads in the forest. If the player character is accompanied by their party from Shadows of Amn, she will have warriors helping her; if not, she will attack by herself. Regardless, as the first opponent in the expansion she is not very powerful and only uses relatively weak spells, even though she theoretically knows up to ninth-level ones. Her main mode of attack is by magic. As befits her nickname, she wears the Baldur's Gate version of Boots of Speed, making her movements but not attacks permanently hasted. She also wears a powerful elven chainmail.

Illasera is the only one of the Five who is not clearly indicated as having a small army of her own.
