'''D'Kacilius Venrai''' is a level | '''D'Kacilius Venrai''' is a level 6 Amethyst Dragonborn Hexblade Warlock devoted to Silent, the Arbiter of Death. He is one of the last remaining [[Whispered Reapers]], the original cult that worshipped Silent. His soul holds fragments of the Great Lord Azzoketh and “Honey-Tongued” Rirra, who are bound by Casi’Kulid, an ancient Draconic aspect. | ||

If things get nasty, D'Kacilius has a variety of close combat defensive spells. He can summon a storm of spectral blades that slash nearby enemies ('''Sword Burst'''), conjure frost armor that freezes melee assailants ('''Armor of Agathys'''), create a shimmer that makes him harder to hit ('''Blur'''), and teleport to safety while leaving behind a disrupting sonic boom ('''Thunder Step'''). He is also able to interrupt spells ('''Counterspell''') and remove magical effects ('''Dispel Magic'''). | If things get nasty, D'Kacilius has a variety of close combat defensive spells.

Recently (leveling up to level 6), D’Kacilius gained magical darkvision ('''Devil’s Sight''') and the ability to reanimate a slain enemy as a temporary ally ('''Accursed Specter''').

Cloak of the Swamp: Gifted to D'Kacilius by the bullywugs of Stollblossom Island after helping save their children from being eaten. A cloak that grants advantage on Stealth checks in swamp and forest environments. It also allows D'Kacilius to Polymorph into a Giant Toad once per day. | |||
Falgrim's Ring of Feather Falling: Given as equipment by the crew piloting one of Falgrim's airships. Acts as a normal Ring of Feather Falling, but is limited to 3 charges. | |||

There is also symbiology of an unknown War God, which is why a DC 15 Wisdom check is required when D'Kacilius is hurt to prevent him from going into a "Vengeful" state. | ||
If D'Kacilius prays for one minute to Silent 30 minutes before the next combat, he is able to collect the soul of '''any''' creature that dies within 60 feet.

Felicia had to stay at a distance, since she was carrying Fellstone, which reacted dangerously if both ores came into contact with each other.
