Sarya Dlardrageth Countess Sarya Dlardrageth was a half sun elf , half - fiend sorceress , leader of the daemonfey and a princess of House Dlardrageth . She was over five thousand years old as of 1374 DR . Description . Sarya had deep red skin and bright orange and gold hair . She preferred to wear her magically protective black robes embroidered with gold . She had a seductive beauty and classic elven features . She was short and girlish . Her gold eyes burned like bright coals , and she had large , bat - like wings emerging from her back . Viewed through the shimmering effect of her heat aura , Sarya ' s long hair seemed to flow as if it were a mane of flames . Her pointed ears looked like regular elf ears , though close inspection revealed a slight scalloped edge to them . Personality . The Cambion Countess was aloof , unforgiving , and totally without remorse . While her abilities made her a formidable foe , she preferred to have her son and nephew sully their hands in combat while she remained the planner behind the scenes . She had nothing but disdain for non elves and utter hatred for most elves . As it had been proven to her , only House Dlardrageth matters , and she was adamant that it would survive . The youngest child and sole daughter of Lady Xiiltharra Dlardrageth and her balor consort , Sarya spent her life in awe of her mother , the matriarch of the Dlardrageth clan . As she expected to become the new matriarch upon her mother ' s death , she always ordered her family and friends around , and her awesome temper would flare quickly to a burning heat if she were disobeyed or ignored . With the house reduced to a trio , Sarya ' s driving motivation was to learn of the new Faerûn , rebuild her house by abducting proper gold elves for mates , and then begin her revenge on those who imprisoned her and dared to render short - sighted judgment upon her house . Though she was only 180 years old physically , millennia of waiting had kept her hatred bright , and she was intent upon seeing the " up and start " moon elves suffer for their actions and their presumption . Possessions . Sarya wore the " Gilded Gown of Selussa " , which was a black robe embroidered with gold that was enchanted to the strength of steel , and carried a zalanthar wood staff called " Miillaethm ' s Staff " . Also , she had " Aduce ' s Whip " , and wore the " Emerald Earring of Vhoadan " . She recovered a levitating Vyshaanti battle platform from the ruins of Nar Kerymhoarth . It was forty feet ( 12 m ) across and had armoured sides . Relationships . Sarya ' s father was a balor . She was the youngest child and only daughter of Lady Xiiltharra Dlardrageth . She had a son called Xhalph who was born after her coupling with a glabrezu . She also had a nephew named Xhalth and a deceased son , Ryvvik , who was of vrock heritage and a psionic . History . Sarya was magically imprisoned thousands of years ago in a location on top of which Ascalhorn and later Hellgate Keep would be built . In 1369 DR she was set free when the prison was cracked after the Harpers used the Gatekeeper ' s Crystal to raze the city of Hellgate Keep . In 1374 DR , burning with wrath for being imprisoned thousands of years , Sarya , attempted to take vengeance upon the descendants of her enemies . She freed the remainder of her Daemonfey kin from Nar Kerymhoarth ( Nameless Dungeon ) , and moved from her hideout beneath Lothen of the Silver Spires to Myth Glaurach . This was where she corrupted the Mythal , perverted its wards and used it to summon an army of demons bound to her service . She also recruited orcs , bugbears , and goblins . Sarya first attacked small wood elf settlements in the High Forest , then launched an attack on Evereska . After lackluster results on both attempts she decided to secretly move into the ruins of Myth Drannor and carve out a kingdom in the forest of Cormanthor . Here she could press into servce both demons and devils . Not only was her residency of the formerly glorious Myth Drannor a dire insult to elven - kind , but Sarya fully intended to use it as a stronghold to slowly conquer the entire region of the Dalelands , the Moonsea , and Sembia . With the help of her mysterious fiendish patron , The Branded King , Sarya even got the lingering powers of Myth Drannor ' s mythal to work in her favor . Sarya ' s plans were , however , eventually thwarted by the elven army of Seiveril Miritar , mercenary armies from Sembia , various small human armies of the Dales , and in no small part by the efforts of the sun - elf wizard , Araevin Teshurr .
