Dead/Captured/Incapacitated NPCs

[Zhade Lezte]

Name: Cutter
Race: Warforged
Personality: Female
Class: Barbarian
Status: Executed for murder

Cutter was the first villain the group defeated together. The party was divided into two groups that happened to be on a bridge, and both groups spotted the murdered body of a scholar, with a few more eagle-eyed heroes noticing a cloaked figure heading under the bridge. A few of the group heard the sounds of an approaching climber and were able to act in time as Cutter thew herself on top of the bridge and into a berserker rage, attacking the heroes. She was especially enraged at Daizengar, the warforged fighter and as she put it "flesh-loving traitor", that was accompanying one of the group, and moved to attack Daizengar with ferocity. Unfortunately this proved to be her downfall, as the well-trained, adamantine-plated Daizengar was able to fend off the majority of her blows as the other party members quickly damaged her enough to render her incapacitated. The next thing Cutter knew, she was awake in the local jail of the city watch, being questioned by the heroes. She stubbornly refused to tell the party anything. About a month later, the prosecutor's office in Sharn found Cutter guilty of murder of the scholar Boral Geldem, and she was executed two weeks after.  

[Zhade Lezte]

Name: Saber
Race: Warforged
Personality: Male
Class: Fighter
Status: Slain by the heroes

Saber snuck into the Forgotten Forge shortly after the heroes entered it, likely while they were resting in the temple. He hid in the rubble, taking advantage of a warforged's ability to stay completely still, patiently waiting for his quarry to reclaim the schema. Upon seeing all but Zekipe and his wolf companion enter the foundry, Saber moved in to strike. Using both of his flaming crossbow bolts he dispatched both the wolf, and then Zekipe, putting them unconscious on the ground on the brink of death. By this time the group had already dispatched the iron defenders in the foundry, solved the rod puzzle, recovered the schema, and exited the foundry. Saber called for the heroes to throw down the schema and surrender, but he really just wanted them to delay until he could close in and begin to attack them with his magical longsword. Mingan, Libertas, and Daizengar assaulted Saber as Saber attempted to hit them with very powerful, but innacurate, longsword attacks as Thalian provided ranged support and Will got Zekipe and his wolf back on their feet. Saber's innacurate power attacks proved a courageous but foolhardy effort as he fell to the heroes, who sent him to wherever dead warforged go.
