Jackal Lord
This information is intended for use with the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game.
At a Glance
Unseen lords among bandits and villains, jackal lords are merely legend to most common folk.
The Xaeyruudh Campaign
In the Xaeyruudh campaign, jackal lords venerate Set, and are usually of neutral-evil alignment.
A handful of jackal lords dabble in intrigue across the southern and eastern Realms.
- Rival lords lair in castles near the Muhjari town of Thalathat and the Imaskari ruin of Darrabhal. While human cartographers see only the political boundaries of Murghôm on the west and Semphar to the east, the jackals see things as north versus south. Neither of them regards human kings or armies as anything more than pawns.
- The elusive leader of the vicious bandits operating in Lapaliiya‘s eastern hinterland is a jackal lord. He has established a very light-handed control over the city of Kormul, and little happens there without his knowledge. His larger plans include usurping the throne of Lapaliiya, and has already planted a web of spies and “sleepers” in various noble and merchant houses of Sheirtalar.
- At least one jackal lord controls parts of the western Raurin near Rolling Stone Gap.
- Another is thought to lair somewhere on the Katakoro Plateau.
