Oreasha was an erinyes that served archdevil Lord Bel, circa the 15th century DR on Toril.[1]

Description[]

As a high-ranking devil and an agent of the once-ruler of Avernus, Oreasha commanded great authority over her lessers in the infernal hierarchy.[1]

Personality[]

Krydle Oreasha

Oreasha lays out the terms of her pact with Krydle.

Oreasha was confident and direct in her actions, not allowing subordinates to slow down or impede her retrieval of what she desired.[1]

She held a particular hatred for Archduke Zariel, who had supplanted Bel as the Lord of Avernus.[2]

Possessions[]

Oreasha wielded a single blade and barbed whip when she decided to personally engage in combat.[1]

History[]

In the Year of Three Ships Sailing, 1492 DR,[note 1] Oreasha entered into an infernal contract with the mortal Krydle of Baldur's Gate.[2] As Bel had taken great interest in the half-elf rogue,[1] Oreasha agreed to protect Krydle's friends while they were trapped in Elturel during the city's descent into Avernus and free Shandie from the clutches of some chain devils, in exchange for his soul to be delivered to Bel.[2] The mortal Krydle agreed to this deal, and had seared upon his arm a reminder of their "soul pact".[3]

She reappeared after Krydle was infected with a mind flayer tadpole and in danger of undergoing ceremorphosis. She removed the tadpole with infernal magic.[citation needed]

Appendix[]

Notes[]

  1. Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus is set in 1492 DR per the "Baldur's Gate Gazetteer" section (p. 159) and a clarification from the adventure's lead writer. Baldur's Gate III, which is a direct sequel to Descent into Avernus set immediately after its events, is also set in 1492 DR. In an apparent error, pages 7 and 47 of Descent into Avernus describes certain events as occurring "fifty years" after 1444 DR (1494 DR).
