Count Voltan Szarlnaxi (pronounced sharl-nak-zee) was a powerful man in Tethyr until evidence came to light that he was conspiring to overthrow the government. His holdings were seized and his family arrested. He escaped on a ship heading north and disappeared into the slums of Baldur’s Gate, where what little money he had could go a long way. The charismatic count attracted a cadre of petty thugs and discovered, much to his surprise, that he rather enjoyed their company and the simplicity of a commoner’s life. Together they embraced Shar, the goddess of night, and strengthened their bond by drinking each other’s blood. Adventurers working for the crown of Tethyr tracked down Szarlnaxi and murdered him, but they failed to dispose of his corpse. Eight of Voltan’s friends prayed over his bleeding body, begging Shar for the strength to avenge him as they licked the blood from his wounds. The goddess of darkness answered their prayers by transforming them into vampires. The Szarlnaxi coven preyed on the slum-dwellers of Baldur’s Gate until they were driven away. Since then, they’ve moved up and down the Sword Coast and throughout the Western Heartlands. Hounded by adventurers, they came to Dragonspear Castle a year ago, believing that the castle’s reputation and remoteness made it an ideal place to hide. They’ve been feeding on just about anything they can find. When Nadir arrived, he read the vampires’ thoughts and convinced the coven that he was an emissary sent by Shar to accomplish three things: unlock the portal under Dragonspear Castle, free Voltan Szarlnaxi’s tor¬mented soul from the depths of the Nine Hells, and serve as a vessel for Voltan’s spirit after it is released. The desperate vampires, eager for the return of their leader, believed the rakshasa’s lies and agreed to help the “emissary of Shar” complete its work. The eight members of the Szarlnaxi coven don’t have coffins. When they are destroyed, they are gone for good. They only assume human form when moving through settled areas and “mingling” with society; otherwise, they remain in hybrid form.
