Nala

Nala, formerly a member of Clan Yrjixtilex, was a dragonborn priestess of Tiamat and a servant of Skuthosiin, who posed as a cleric of Bahamut in order to infiltrate and corrupt the Platinum Cadre. Due to her faith in a dragon god, Nala was a thrikominaki (clanless dragonborn).

Description
Nala had brown scales speckled with gold, and scars were she once wore her clan's piercings. Unlike most female dragonborn, Nala had a lithe body.

Relationships
She was the lover of Patrin, the leader of the order.

History
In 1479 DR, she was part of the group of members of the Platinum Cadre that went to the Black Ash Plain to exterminate as many ash giants as they could.

Nala initiated new members of the order into the mysteries of Tiamat, all the while claiming that it was really Bahamut's power she was channeling. Tiamat's power gave members of the order the ability to use their breath weapons more often than normal and the order used this ability to great effect in combat. Because the dragonborn were unfamiliar with the gods of Toril, they did not realize they were calling on Tiamat's power rather than Bahamut's.

The Platinum Cadre was part of Vanquisher Tarhun's joint military operation against the giants. Although Nala didn't wanted them to attack at the same time the other tymantheran military forces did it, because she was using magic to hinder the tymantheran effort, Balasar was able to convince his "brothers-in-arms" to join the fray, to her annoyment. Nala later joined forces with Balasar, Medrash and Patrin in order to save Tarhun's life.

Suspicious of Nala, Balasar infiltrated the Platinum Cadre and discovered she was a worshiper of Tiamat. Nala fled to the Black Ash Plain when her secret was revealed and joined Skuthosiin's army. She was killed by Balasar in the battle at Ashhold.
