Mainu was the most mysterious member of the barae, the seven "super-paladins" sworn to protect the holy city of Mezro in Chult.[2]
Description[]
Whatever form she used to have, by the late 1300s DR, Mainu had no body but appeared as a flowing dark patch in the waters of the River Olung. She often changed her aspect, appearing in the form a voluptuous woman or a giant piranha. Whatever shape the flowing darkness took, she always had a pair of golden, glowing eyes.[2]
Personality[]
Mainu was very elusive but a stickler for protocol and decorum. She required all visitors to treat her as royalty.[2]
Abilities[]
Like all barae, Mainu had been granted special powers from Ubtao, which included the following:[3]
- She could utter magical commands that would compel the hearer to obedience.
- She regenerated health rapidly.
- She could detect evil at will.
- She had improved reflexes and physical and mental resistances.
If within the Temple of Ubtao, she could also cast the following spells:[3]
- Cure critical wounds
- Forbiddance
- Remove blindness or deafness
- Remove disease
- Restoration
- True seeing
In addition, Mainu possessed the power to control the waters and creatures of the River Olung within ten miles of Mezro.[2]
