The Lost Senator Myth in Misty Isle of Harn | World Anvil

The Lost Senator

It is said on the nights of the full moon, the ghostly form of the infamous Senator Baloth Nemirina walks the streets of the City of Coranan, clad in dark robes clutching a bloody dagger and a skull mask. He looks more miserable than frightening, disappearing when challenged.

He has been seen by both the poor, the rich and even members of the Red Guard. This apparition appears mostly in the Northern and Eastern Districts of the city as well as in and around the Chamber of Red Domes.

Baloth is best known for his ridiculous claim of being the heir to the throne of the great Azeryani Empire and his three years world trip to try to prove it. The Order of Rydequelyn has even created a short play satirising the Senator. On a darker side more recently, there have been whispers that he was the leader of a cult of assassins and even a high priest of the God Naveh. This has not been proven. However, he has been missing since the infamous Night of Shadows of 720TR, where hundred died in spontaneously riots.

The Truth

The ghost is fake, it is an illusion created by the Warlock Quazzy. Even so, the legend is taking a life of its own with many unexplained events claimed on the Ghost of Senator Baloth.
