Description
Malasar is a dark and mysterious figure. She is constantly sneering and her words drip with innuendo and half-truths. She usually appears as a Drow elf dressed as an assassin, complete with several daggers on her person and a shadowy hood.

Malasar has been in the shadows since the beginning. She has manipulated and killed from those shadows. She manipulated and killed to cause the world to ultimately reach the point of the Divine Cataclysm. She tried to cause the same during the Era of Magic, but it failed.

Malasar has no real relationships with any deities except for the antagonistic relationships. Even the deities of the Nether Planes don’t trust her enough to make any sort of alliances. She has worked alongside Khanos for a time, mostly because they agree that when your time is up, you must die.

Clergy
The temples of Malasar are underground, hidden, secret, and protected by enchantments. They are essentially assassin guilds, as all the clerics have skills having to do with assassinations. The temples have stations and equipment for poison making, trap making, and stealth weapons.

Clergy of the church rarely have any identifiers. They have a hidden holy symbol to Malasar on their body, but they dress as common folk and rarely dress in any garb that would stand out. For rituals they may dress in black with hints of red and wear masks that look like a face of Malasar (a Drow female).

Clerics of Malasar pray for their spells at dusk. The also perform sacrificial rituals to ask for favor on their quests or contracts they have received. They also have been known to perform rituals to protect a well-paying client from being attacked or assassinated during the night.

Dogma
Death is coming. Drow will kill you below. Spiders will kill you above. Watch your back, guard yourself from attack at all times, and lie your way out danger if need be. Nothing is real. Never reveal your hand. Always have a trick up your sleeve. Always have a dagger up your sleeve.

Character Options
Monks who choose to follow Malasar are in effect choosing the "Way of Shadow" monastic tradition. Most famously a group of monks follow this tradition and maintain a residence in Bragol. They are known as the Eclipse Warriors.
