Adversary overview

The Fourth Lord of the Spectral Council.

The Doctor directs CEREMENT and the Verdant Hand, and maintains an honorary leadership role in the Holy Order of Yrecros. She oversees nearly all healers’ guilds, constructs “comprehensive solutions to extant public health risks” and concocts new, magic-supplemented controlled substances. She is known to take many of these herself. Never engage.
