Divine Minions

This information is intended for use with the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game.

At a Glance

A native outsider.

This is the term given by lay persons to the servants of the God-Kings… not in the sense that “we are all servants of the God-Kings!” but specifically to the individuals who directly attend the manifestations and guard the incarnations. Each God-King has his/her own minions, and they are quite diverse.

DM’s Notes

Divine minions are the messengers and agents of the God-Kings and therefore may be found anywhere in the Old Empires, occasionally in other places around the Realms where a God-King has interests, and rarely in other Primes or other planes. In other words, they can be anywhere.

Hakeashar

This information is intended for use with the Dungeons & Dragons role-playing game.

At a Glance

An extraplanar outsider.

Also called eaters of magic, hakeashar are clouds of red glowing mist. When they have the space, they often take a spherical shape but by no means are they limited to that shape. They can seep under doors or through cracks in stone.

DM’s Notes

Hakeashar are natives of another Prime; they can be summoned to anywhere in the Realms, and from there they can wander to anywhere else.

Sources

  • Lost Empires [17738] page 186 – the nishruu, called a relative of the hakeashar in 2e, apparently replaces it in 3e. So just use the nishruu description for 3e encounters.
