Xanthi Lamman High Priestess of Nerull

Xanthi is 42 years old, 5'10" tall, 147 lbs., and of terrifying appearance-her eyes are as black as the glooms of her in fernal master, her face radiant with the homicidal mania which infects her soul, and her flowing black hair cascades down her back. Her magical items make her an even more dangerous opponent particularly the combination of boots of elvenkind, which allow her to sneak up behind a victim, and the necklace of strangulation she then puts around the character's throat (successful attack roll needed with standard bonus for rear at tack, plus negation of Dexterity and shield, if she is not detected).

Anyone who encounters Xanthi in the cult's subterranean hideout will find that she is always protected by 2-5 zombies, and a monster zombie (bugbear) of exceptional size (45 hp) which acts as a personal bodyguard.
