Quazandra (died MS 5102), dubbed the Royal Assassin, is a assassin and member of both the Heldajdok-taagim and Cult of Vashna. As a member of the Heldajdok-taagim, who had gained the favour of Vashna's spirit, she is a formidable assassin.
Appearance[]
Quazandra is described as a slender young woman, although she is older than she looks.[1]
Biography[]
Quazandra is a member of the Heldajdok-taagim. She served Luthos Vorgada, the second Doomslayer, around MS 5102, during the events of Dead in the Deep. She and Teakkro are believed to be behind the assassinations of King Ulnar V and his two daughters, Crown Princess Imelda and Princess Madelon in MS 5091,[2] as well as Kai Grand Master Firestone, who was protecting them. Quazandra is believed to have killed the royal family, whereas Teakkro killed Firestone.[3][4]
During the events of Dead in the Deep, Quazandra accompanied Luthos Vorgada to the Cathedral of the Great Return, where Vorgada delivered the news to the Cult of Vashna that the captured Steel Hand was actually a descendant of King Ulnar I, meaning that as long as the Dagger of Vashna could be recovered (via the Chaos-master), the ritual to revive Vashna could begin. Grand Master, however, had also infiltrated Zekgazad to complete Steel Hand's quest and rescue him, and was able to partly-foil their plans. The Dagger of Vashna still fell into the hands of the Cult, but Grand Master was able to destroy the Chaos-master (manifesting itself on Magnamund) and rescue Steel Hand from captivity.
As the two Kai Grand Masters fled Zekgazad, Quazandra and Teakkro ambushed them. They fought the two separately: Quazandra facing Steel Hand, and Teakkro facing Grand Master. To fulfill the ritual, Quazandra attempted to capture Steel Hand alive, but this proved to be her undoing, as Steel Hand was able to kill her and avenge his distant family.[5]
In the gamebooks[]
Quazandra is only encountered in Dead in the Deep, and not in combat, as Steel Hand fights and kills her alone.[2]
After defeating Teakkro, the two Kai Grand Masters may loot Quazandra's body. She carries:[2]
- Two vials of Rendalim's Elixir (restoring 6 Endurance points when drunk)
- A Rapier (equivalent to a Sword)
- A Dagger
- 20 Gold Crowns
