Davaeorn

Davaeorn is a neutral evil humanb mage working for the Iron Throne. He is in command of their operations at the Cloakwood Mines and can be found on the fourth level of the mine. He gives orders to Tazok and takes his orders from Rieltar. He is a boss and must be defeated to advance to Chapter Five of the main quest.
==Gameplay==
The spells he can use make him an opponent which should not be underestimated. Upon meeting him for the first time, he already has two spells active due to magical, undroppable/unstealable rings and bracers: Protection From Normal Missiles and Mirror Image. As the fight begins, he casts Dimension Door, then begins a pattern of offensive spells that includes:
*Lightning Bolt
*Dimension Door
*Fireball
*Dire Charm
*Dimension Door
*Mirror Image 
*Hold Person
*Monster Summoning III
Several of these spells are not in his spellbook, but are instead made available through his class script. And he doesn't make use of Cone of Cold or the Flame Arrow spells.
When Silenced, Davaeorn will not engage in combat and will instead rapidly teleport all over the basement using Dimension Door, despite being silenced and unable to cast spells.
If silenced prior to initiating dialog, he is unable to do so and will not become hostile even when attacked. He will stand passively in place while you kill him.
==Notes==
*This character has many unique enchanted items, such as the Robe of the Evil Archmagi and the Bracers to the Death. He will also drop the Key to River Plug, which is necessary to flood the mines.
*Davaeorn also carries three letters from Rieltar, the second of which contains in its contents the second known instance that Sarevok's name is mentioned in the game (the first one being a letter in Tazok’s tent at the Bandit Camp).
==Trivia==
*According to his brother, Davaeorn murdered their father. His brother is found in the Shipwreck's Coast area to the north of the Lighthouse area.
* As Davaeorn's dialogue reveals, the chest in his bedroom, originally should contain the Key to River Plug – the quest item necessary to continue Flooding the Cloakwood Mine. Perhaps because of this high lock difficulty the developers had decided to put the key into Davaeorn's inventory instead in the Enhanced Edition.
::"As I have told you, I am the mighty magician Davaeorn! I serve Rieltar of the Iron Throne. It is my duty to keep this mine running at peak efficiency. This mine used to be in the possession of a clan of dwarves. They mined into the side of river, and most of the dwarves died in the ensuing flood. The Iron Throne has moved in and plugged the river with a magical seal. If anyone were to use the key I keep in my bedroom chest, they could open the seal and flood the mines. That would be a very bad disaster for the Iron Throne. Indeed, yes it would." — Charmed dialogue
*Davaeorn has a shrine to Bhaal in his quarters, which is pretty unusual since Bhaal is dead. It is possible Davaeorn is one of Sarevok's supporters. Given the importance of the mine and Sarevok's plans to subvert the Iron Throne stockpile, it seems more likely than not.
