High Priest Minirde

Summary/Background
One of the more powerful priests in Blackwall, High Priest Minirde is an enigmatic figure even to those that know him, but there is no question that he is both blessed by the Pale Dragon and responsible for squashing ongoing efforts to expel the Church of Naruyxz. After becoming High Priest in 4076 DY, High Priest Minirde led an internal purge of the temple's rosters, banishing a number of members discovered to be agents of the Church of the Many Divines seeking to incriminate the Church in forbidden practices. Though cordial, the almost-predatory gaze of the Pale Dragon's High Priest unnerves even the coldest visitors to Blackwall's Hospital-Temple of Naruyxz.

The polite and sometimes even charming demeanor of High Priest Minirde hides a priest of terrifying power, however. Rumors of Minirde's past paint him as a veteran of bloody conflicts with the Cult of Vulcarus in Qirja's Blood of Naruyxz and no stranger to the necromantic arts and other forbidden occult lore. While Minirde himself refuses to comment on such rumors, he is capable of casting extremely powerful spells and has even worked several miracles in public, most recently to eradicate a contagion in Blackwall released by the Cult of the King in Shadows in late 4080 DY.
