Melisand

Melisand was the leader of a small group of drow who were sent to assassinate Carvos Shademaster in Sarafey Forest.
==History and Personality==
Melisand's past remains largely a mystery to the party. He was probability nobility in a dark elf city, as he was leading his group, and because his talents suggested an arcane education. Whether his assignment was of his choosing or whether it was intended as a punishment is unclear, although he did express a dislike for Carvos. The reason for the drow's involvement was that underneath his helmet, Carvos had smeared his skin with deep purple paint to resemble a dark elf, and many saw Carvos as representing a drow invasion force. The authorities of the dark elf kingdoms saw him as an inconvenience and authorised his assassination. In manner, Melisand was calm, eloquent and professional.
==In the Campaign==
Melisand encountered the party in the ancient druidic burial grounds and suggested that they work together to assassinate Carvos Shademaster. He proved his ability as a wizard while fighting shade cultists and the Bull, but he was killed by a thunderbolt sent by the halfling Vahandri. His companions, two drow who carried sharp scimitars and wore chainmail, took his body and returned to the Underdark after Carvos' death.
