Minthara

Paladin of the Oath of Vengeance. Goblin Warlord.

Mintara grew up in the Underdark, in the drow city-state of Menzoberranzan, in a harsh and cruel environment. When the first preachers of the Absolute cult came to Menzoberranzan, they were immediately killed, but their arrival and stories intrigued Mintara. She gathered a band of drow and went to the Moon Towers, where they were greeted with respect and a feast was held for them. During the feast, however, they were all killed by one of the cult leaders named Orin - all except Mintara, whom Orin took underground and implanted a parasitic larva into her brain. Thus, Mintara fell under the complete control of the Absolute, obeying Orin's every word in the name of serving the new deity. When the Nautiloid crashed, Mintara was sent to search for a mysterious artifact. During her mission, Mintara managed to raid Waukeen's Haven to kidnap an influential political figure in the city of Baldur's Gate, Duke Ravengard. And after that, she began to prepare an attack on the Emerald Grove of the druids, believing that this is where the artifact is located. Being influenced by the Absolute, Mintara, like other "faithful", is a character completely captured by the dark side, ready to commit any, even the most heinous atrocities. However, everything becomes less clear if you free her from this influence. Before the story with the cult, Mintara was a devoted paladin of the drow goddess Lolth, and her oath still stands. Like all paladins, she has strong determination and devotion. As a drow, she shares her kin's views on cruelty and dominance. However, beneath her stern exterior are her fears and doubts about trusting relationships. In some cases, she can show pity, admiring strength of character.
