Vangerdahast Aeiulvana

Vangerdahast is the former Royal Court Wizard of Cormyr who was responsible for the awakening of Nalavara and the returning of the goblins of Grodd.

He is called "Vangey" for short by some.

Appearance
Vangerdahast usually wears reddish brown robes. He is average height and slightly overweight, with dark brown eyes that become red when he is angry. His hair and beard are white with a few remaining reddish brown streaks. He has a slightly protruding belly.

Relatives
Vangerdahast is descended from Baerauble Etharr.

Possessions
Vangerdahast possesses the staff of the High Wizard of Cormyr and the blade Symylazarr, both of which he is able to summon into his hand at will. He also carries a small silver whistle in his belt pouch, that makes a loud shrill noise for gaining attention. There are several glowstones in Vangerdahast's belt which he can use as sources of light. There is also a hollow metal sphere that, upon spoken command, can transform into a key to unlock a secret vault in the depths of the royal palace. It is one of only five, the others possessed by the king, queen and princesses.

Personality
Vangerdahast's favourite chair is in his private library in the King's Castle in Suzail. It is upholstered in the flesh of a sahuagin. He sometimes attends The Laughing Lass, a tavern and festhall in Suzail, although he is careful to disguise himself.
