Kizzaf was a diviner and one of two lesser wizards stationed at the enclave run by the young Red Wizard Hinnar.[1] She had secret plans to earn money in the slave trade.[2]
Description[]
Kizzaf bore a magical tattoo on her body[1] from the Red Wizards that made her divinations more difficult to resist.[3] She also wore a cloak of resistance.[1]
Kizzaf, like many Thayans, was bald, but when hunting for slaves, she wore a dark, long-haired wig.[4]
Abilities[]
Kizzaf was tough, dexterous, and intelligent and was trained in alchemy and spellcraft. She also knew how to brew potions and to scribe scrolls.[1]
Possessions[]
Kizzaf carried a dagger and a small crossbow, both of master craftsmanship, and she usually had a healing potion on her person.[1]
Her spellbook contained 31 different spells.[1]
Activities[]
Kizzaf spent most of the day's hours in the compound's main barracks scribing spells with other wizards and brewing potions, including potions of love.[4]
History[]
Beginning at about the start of summer, 1372 DR, Kizzaf was secretly using charm person spells and potions of love to charm various townsfolk with the intent to sell them into slavery. Her actions triggered the investigation of a group of adventurers, who learned of the nefarious plans when two young men, named Talf and Elonn, never returned to their homes one night around Midsummer. The men had been seen at a tavern speaking to a tall woman with long, dark hair. They were later seen by a drunk leaving the town with the mysterious woman.[2]
Kizzaf sold Talf and Elonn to a Thayan merchant named Mahzed.[5] The adventurers then tracked her to the Red Wizard compound.[5] There, the adventures battled Kizzaf and two zombies that she had created with an animate dead scroll. (She had acquired this scroll previously while aiding the local militia and had buried the zombies within the compound gates to later call upon for help.) The compound's leader, Hinnar, wanting to maintain peaceful relations with the nearby town, tried to aid the adventurers and capture Kizzaf alive. History does not record their fates.[4]
Appendix[]
Errata[]
The source lists ray of frost and burning hands as spells in Kizzaf's spellbook, yet evocation is a forbidden school for her.
