Lightfoot was a werewolf from Moray in the Moonshae Isles during the late 15th century DR.[1]
Relationships[]
She was the daughter of Deucala, who had been a matriarch of the Black Blood tribe in northern Moray as of the mid-to-late 15th century DR. When Deucala found the Lady Amaranth in the late 1460s DR, and raised her, the young fey woman would become like a sister to Lightfoot, and was the one who named her. Lightfoot and her other siblings were fiercely protective of Amaranth.[1]
History[]
When Amaranth became the de facto leader of the lycanthropes at Caer Moray, she led them to be peaceful and productive. Only females were allowed to reside within the walls, which included Lightfoot.[1]
Following the revival of the god Malar in the late 1470s DR, the community at Caer Moray was destroyed by the Black Blood tribe in the Battle of Caer Moray, and Lady Amaranth left it behind. Lightfoot was among the survivors of the battle, and as a daughter of the great Deucala, Amaranth entrusted the remains of her followers to her and her sister, Bay.[1][note 1]

Notes[]
- ↑ Canon material does not provide a year for the events described in The Rose of Sarifal, although the novel indicates that it takes place "more than a hundred years" after the return of High Lady Ordalf to Gwynneth in 1375 DR (ch. 1) and "nearly a hundred years" after the Spellplague in 1385 DR (ch. 3). While this fits the usual assumption that all 4th edition material is set in 1479 DR, the novel contradicts a number of other sources set during that year: at the start of the novel, Caer Moray is held by lycanthropes rather than by soldiers loyal to House Kendrick (as stated in Backdrop: Moonshae Isles), Citadel Umbra has been home to Prince Araithe for at least 12 years rather than being the base of his enemies (as stated in Backdrop: Moonshae Isles, the Forgotten Realms Campaign Guide, and Realmslore: Sarifal), and Malar is stated to be "dead" rather than an active exarch of Silvanus (as stated in the Forgotten Realms Campaign Guide). These contradictions are largely resolved by the end of the narrative, meaning that the novel is best assumed to be set prior to 1479 DR. Unless a canon source contradicts this assertion, this wiki will thus assume that the events of the novel take place after 1475 DR but before 1479 DR.
