Valen Shadowbreath portrait

Featured in: Hordes of the Underdark

Race: tiefling (human with demonic ancestors)

Class: fighter, weapon master

Alignment: chaotic good

Description: This tiefling weapon master is first encountered in the rebel drow encampment of Lith My'athar. Initially distrustful of the stranger appearing out of nowhere, Valen nevertheless makes his services available to the player character (PC).

Background: Valen grew up in Sigil. His mother worked for a demoness but was killed by her for doing poor work as a result of being ill one month. Valen was then a thief, picked up by a devil called Grimash't. After some time in the Abyss, Valen met the Seer and was changed by just a glance from her. When they could finally speak, she taught him that he could be human. After this, he vowed to protect the Seer. Grimash't, of course, followed him, but Valen killed him.

Valen had at one time fallen in love with a slave who was killed in front of him when his feelings were discovered by Grimash't.

Romance: Female PCs can pursue a relationship with Valen if they flirt with him and get him to talk about his past. If the romance is fulfilled successfully, Valen will admit his love to the PC, and he will remain loyal when tempted with the chance to release his demonic taint. In addition, he will be the PC's one true love, as revealed by the Knower of Names (unless the PC was already made the one true love of the Sleeping Man earlier in the conversation).

Trivia

  • Valen's true name is Oeskathine the Demonwrestler.
