Kalarel



Kalarel, Scion of Orcus, is a character from the official D&D Module "Keep on the Shadowfell", and was its main villain. His ultimate goal was to open a portal that would link the Shadowfell to the Mortal Realm and allow the demon king Orcus to invade. His plans were, of course, thwarted by the heroes when he himself got sucked into the incomplete portal and was sent straight to the Shadowfell, presumably dead.

However, this was not so. He survived in the realm of Letherna, and after using a ritual to become a Vampire Lord, he took over a local castle and murdered most of the nearby villagers. Over the course of the next five years, he had been casting a new ritual to open a portal back to the Mortal Realm, but Terrios, Vigton, Sampson, Allegretto, and Drohad arrived just in time to stop him.
