Horlith the Motherless's page

Horlith the Motherless is a worm-like monstrosity with purple folds of blubber, a useless, twitching tail, a slimy tongue, and bulging, watery eyes. He is the spawn of a Varisian sorceress from Magnimar who fulfilled a pact she made for power by mating with a qlippoth.

Rejected from the moment of his birth by his mother, who took her own life when she first looke upon him, Horlith has an inherent distrust and dislike of all humanoids. He assumes every promise will be broken, every "fact" is a lie, every "deal" is a trick, and every "ally" is an enemy waiting for an opportunity. Along the way, he has developed an extraordinary ability to read people.

Horlith has used that ability and his innate powers of mind control and distraction to dominate those around him and to punish those who underestimate him.

Horlith is self-centered, demanding, dismissive, and blunt. Unusual even for a tiefling, he came to the attention of the Chelaxians early on and often took assignments distracting guards, bureaucrats, and vendors while Chelaxian agents sneaked past, examined papers, or stole wares.

Eventually Horlith was invited to Egorian, where he developed and expanded the abilities granted by his crossed bloodlines. He has just recently returned to Magnimar and joined the Pathfinder Society at the suggestion of his associates in Egorian. He has agreed to do so as he sees it as an opportunity to increase his power and to accumulate some wealth.
